As the weeks proceed, I’ll add posts about each discussing in detail how they fit into what I am trying to present. Lightroom 6 I\u2019ve been hooked… <\/p>\n
\nI\u2019ve been hooked on Lightroom since Version 3. This is my first port of call in my workflow. RAW files are imported into Lightroom before anything else happens.<\/p>\n
\nI have to confess that I don\u2019t use Photoshop at all in my current workflow process.<\/p>\n
\nI do use this reasonably regularly having bought the Suite at a promotion which saved me 50% on the total price for all three complimentary applications. I have it as an alternative to Lightroom 6 and mainly because in Lightroom I still don\u2019t use a lot of presets in my current workflow. However I do appreciate the presets from DXO Optics Pro, and particularly like to use it when exploring Black & White renditions of particular shots.<\/p>\n
\nI don\u2019t use this very often at this stage, although I do often experiment with the various looks on certain shots. I suppose at this stage the majority of my subject matter doesn\u2019t lend itself particularly to benefiting from a film-like quality.<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019ve not really explored the use of this software yet in any of my shots. Haven\u2019t felt the need for it yet.<\/p>\n
\nAlthough I had an early fling with HDR photography, I\u2019ve not yet returned to exploring that further. My research has indicated that this software would be the best for my particular interests in this area when I get back to experimenting with it.<\/p>\n
\nI use this constantly with my regular sorties into Focus-stacking my Macro work.<\/p>\n
\nI can\u2019t really comment on this particular bit of software and its uses yet as I don\u2019t use it. It came bundled with my Helicon Focus Pro purchase so I didn\u2019t complain at the time.<\/p>\n
\nI don\u2019t use this software at this stage as I don\u2019t generally shoot video at this stage. I once again bought it as a package deal with Photoshop Elements 13. Saved me 50% on the price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
