I also use CPro7 but I dont think that it can work well for end to end workflow without Photoshop.
Even Acorn Editor instead of Photoshop is not sufficient IMHO.
I really think that Adobe have dropped the ball -big time-. ACR could be made to work with any version of Photoshop if they wanted but instead they have got greedy and re1uire you to upgrade the version of Photoshop.
ACR should be a stand alone chargeable product. It might be costed the same as a Photoshop Elements license but at that price they could then afford to reduce the cost of Photoshop by the same amount. But if they charged ACR at half the price of Photoshop Elements they would still make a considerable profit.
Greedy, greedy Adobe and you wonder why PirateBay exists.
Couldn't agree more. Greedy and STUPID...they are trying to squeeze more and more out of a smaller and smaller universe rather than try to win with innovation. And maybe that is all they can do, since they have really lost their way as innovators - they spend more time trying to thwart pirates than improving their software in m opinion.
I've only been using the full version of CApture One for a couple of nights - actually mostly watching some of their terrific tutorials more than "using." I still think that it might work along with OnOne Perfect Photo suite which I have come to really really love (I started using it about 3 months ago and have found that I hardly ever launch NIK plugins now).
What I still object to with Capture One is the catalog concept (though I'm trying to figure out a way to adapt to it) and the sessions concept is even weirder (I learn now that I've bought the software
. Why in the world don't all of these apps just let you open a file and edit it?????
