Awesome! I’m still using CS3, but…… I’d be very interested in purchasing CS5! No doubt! Can’t wait to see what they have improved and added in.
man, You have lots of Money in your pocket.. :p
BTW, Do you guys buy the whole package or only the photoshop ?
Personally I only buy photoshop and lightroom seperatly. they should make a suite for photographers.
I only do Lightroom now.
They do.
“Save 30% on Lightroom 2 when purchased with Photoshop CS4 or Photoshop CS4 Extended. The discount will be reflected when both products are added to your shopping cart. ”

woooo.. Toooorrent!
A small upgrade for a large price tag, that’s what adobe’s turning into.
Finally! I was sooo waiting for it… I havent’t got any camera right now, this will change with the 7D, but I need the software to manage the photos. And this software will be CS5 Photoshop/Bridge for me =) As soon as I can buy the Education-version, it will be mine =) And the 7D will follow some days later. Great! :-)
An Adobe CS release usually comes days before a dSLR announcement this would mean a 1DsMk4 will be announced in April.
I only buy the actual Photoshop, not Extended…. CS5 only please. The rest I don’t use.
Thanks! will they carry that to the next gen CS5 & LR3 ??
I’d be getting this with my .edu discount. I’m on CS3 now, I tend to skip every other generation. Especially looking forward to PP and AE.
Looking forward to 64 bit support on OS X
Oh and they will discount the price LR software only and not the whole thing. thats like $89 and not $329.
You want to get us jailed! -.-
Thats a new piece of information for me. :)
I honestly only use LR for most of my work. But having photo shop can be handy from time to time specially when I’m editing Competition Photographs.
still using cs2 und lightroom 1…
…I’m saving the money for cameras and lenses^^
Ah well…. and update I’ll skip…. unless I get a new laptop & win the lottery or something like that…
I’ve got CS4 that I got with an educational discount… but maybe in a few years time when they reach CS7/8 I’ll be able to spend money on an upgrade – nice news anyway.
Thanks :)
I am still on CS2 – maybe it is time for an upgrade.

Yep, the lack of 64bit support is the reason I’m still using CS3.
I am satisfied with CS4 for most software, but depending on what the new Photoshop has to offer, I’ll upgrade just that.
Even though I just purchased CS4 last April, I’m happy to hear that they’re coming out with an update. I’m really really hoping that CS5 supports 64-bit OS on the Mac. If they omit this again, I’ll be quite annoyed, and I’ll be forced to buy Windows7 for my PC.
I can’t wait to see what they’ve added to Indesign, as that’s what I spend most of my time in at work.
I just use Gimp. Does everything I need to do, tons of extensions, and free :) May give lightroom another try though. Trying to find an alternative to picasa since it sucks when it comes to handing raw files. But lightroom is expensive and I could put that money towards a new lens or something :)
That used to be me, then I tried Lightroom. It’s really built for photographers and it will make your life much, much easier than running PS every time you want to just change color temperature. LR2 is out there for about $125 or so, I can’t recommend it enough.
Have you tried the Lightroom 3 Beta? Its a huge upgrade, the list of new and usful features is very long.
I haven’t used photoshop in quite a while, Lightroom does what I need.
I would not be suprised if they raise the price.
Looking forward to Premiere pro, I hear it will make much better use of 64-bit OS’s.
What I REALLY want though is proper support for Cineform. And I bet all you other 5/7D owners will agree!
Does LR3 fix the glaring lack of ability to add a banner/signature/copyright on output?
I found LR2.6 to run slightly more slowly in 64-bit mode, if anything, and Canon’s crappy driver for the MP960 doesn’t grok 64-bit, so I went back to 32.
LR isn’t that expensive, definitely check eBay. There are a lot of people that will contact your for a second chance, so I wouldn’t bid more than $125.
Based on the amount of time it’s saved me in organizing, editing and being able to find images later, it’s more than made up for the cost.
Good thinking.. :)
Apple Aperture FTW!
I haven’t upgraded Adobe BloatSuite since v2. The most creative thing about it is Adobe’s marketing hype.
I may upgrade when I move to Intel, but even then possibly at the end of the cycle…free upgrade to v6!
Yes, I already thought about using LR, but at the end I will have to buy PS anyway, and so I can save up about 100€… That’s money I don’t have… ;-) Without using LR, I can spend more money on lenses =)
I found 64bit LR to be noticeably quicker in OS X. Images render in “high quality” much more quickly when advancing from photo to photo
Please enlighten me. What’s new in PS CS5?
I imagine they’ve made the interface even more incomprehensible, frustrating and nonstandard.
Let me save you some time – don’t bother with the Lightroom 3 beta – you can’t use it with lightroom 2 catalogs so you are basically painting yourself into a corner. And as for CS5, I just went back to CS3 b/c Photoshop in CS4 was not handling my workflow efficiently. Can I get a HARUMPH?!?!?
I’ll give you a harumph. LR2 is where it’s at until they finish their beta, I like my photos too much to be the guy who finds all the end-user bugs for them.
Yes iirc you can watermark in LR3
Well, you can also use LR2/Mogrify plugin for watermarking, slaing etc. already in LR2. At the moment LR3b2 enhancements on expoert do not match to that.
Premiere Pro 5 for HD video. It changes the game.
It’s not being released for purchase on April 12th, it’s just being showed off…
Though new addons are the Content-Aware, resizing a picture without distorting the aspect (ie. decrease horizontally but not vertically and no distortion). Most of this stuff can be found on cs5.org.
Seriously, as far as I’m concerned the 3 most interesting things I’ve seen in LR3 Beta 2 is the noise reduction, new demosaicing and proper tethering support for many commonly used camera’s.
If you haven’t tried the new noise reduction in LR3 beta 2, seriously… download it… and put one of your images of iso 3200 or higher through it and see how much better it is then in previous versions. I’d say it even competes with a lot of the dedicated noise reduction software and in some cases beats it.
I’m really happy with what I’ve seen from the new raw engine so far and can’t wait to see that translated into ps.
This is for money makers,tomorrow they have Road Show here in Bangalore in a 5 Star Hotel.I have booked my seat let me go to see how it looks like.The whole lot of Abode will be here to show interesting.
