The best software on the market is Adobe’s Photoshop CS 5.5, it is highly versatile and innovative. Photoshop Cs 5.5 has surpassed all of its competitors, it has a lot of filters as well as different tools ready for use once installed. Adobe went above and beyond with its release of Photoshop CS 5.5 in May 2011 like most Photoshops the sales sky rocketed once released. In this article I will explain the pros and cons of Photoshop CS 5.5
As a Photoshop professional myself I acknowledge that this software even if it is the best for image editing it has its cons like everything else. One of the Cons when using Photoshop CS 5.5 is that it takes loads of RAM and hard drive space to run efficiently. If you don’t have a computer or laptop with a decent amount or RAM or space I recommend not to install it. I recommend that you have an I5 processor or greater to run it smoothly. Another con for Photoshop is that it may be overwhelming for new people in the image editing world. All professionals when they were first getting into Photoshop all felt that feeling of being overwhelmed. It is because Photoshop has a wide variety of tools and a lot of things you can do with them.
With the cons aside we should start with the many benefits of Photoshop CS5.5. One of the benefits is that there are a lot of ways to do one thing; this lets different people get the same end result but different ways to get there. For example there are many different ways to sharpen an image such has Smart sharpen, Sharpen more, Sharpen edges, Sharpen and Unsharp mask. Personally I prefer to use Unsharp mask, but in the end you should be able to get a similar end result no matter which sharpen tool you use. Another Pro of photoshop for mac is like the past Photoshops it has the masking tool. The masking tool is used for digital manipulation of a digital image. You can also use the masking tool for image enhancement as well.
Let review the pros and cons
Cons:
Memory, RAM and overwhelming for beginners.
Pros:
Different ways to do one thing and masking tool.
There are a lot of pros to this program unfortunately we cannot touch on them this time. There are a lot of photo editing programs out there on the market but Photoshop Cs5, or more generally adobe photoshop for mac, is in my opinion the best one out there and is as well one of the industry’s best photo program out there. overall i give Photoshop CS5.5 a 10/10 score.
