Installing the entire Creative Suite 2.0 requires four CD-ROMs' worth of data, but you can select elements or individual applications to ease the burden on your hard drive. But if you're already running up against limitations within those basic photo apps or you want to create original digital art, we think Adobe Photoshop CS2 is worth the price.
Those folks wanting only to catalog and clean up snapshots for family albums, however, should look to Apple's iPhoto (part of the iLife suite) or to Corel PaintShop Pro 9.0 instead. Web designers will also appreciate that more elements of Adobe ImageReady CS2 are integrated within Photoshop CS2. On its own, Photoshop CS2 gives professional photographers a good reason to upgrade, largely because of the new version's support for Camera Raw 3.0 and Digital Negative images and tools to reduce noise and optical lens distortion. As part of Adobe Creative Suite 2.0, Photoshop CS2 integrates better than the old version with Illustrator CS2, GoLive CS2, and InDesign CS2, thanks in large part to Adobe Version Cue 2.0 and the new Adobe Bridge file-management applications.
Available for PCs running Windows 2000 and XP and Macs running OS X, Photoshop CS2 includes new features that make it well worth the price of the upgrade.
When it comes to professional digital image editing, Adobe Photoshop CS2 stands head and shoulders above the competition.
