Digital Home Thoughts: Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 and Premiere Elements 4 Bundle Reviewed

"Adobe has been the dominant force in professional PC photo and video editing for the majority of the Windows era. But the company took quite a while to take the entry-level market seriously, particularly for video. Where the latest version numbers of Ulead Video Studio and Pinnacle Studio are now into double figures, Adobe Premiere Elements has only just reached its fourth iteration, with Photoshop Elements a mere two instalments older. Still, considering Adobe's unquestionable professional heritage, it was always going to be a player when it did finally turn its attention to the budget-conscious end of the scale. Both Premiere Elements and Photoshop Elements are now mature applications, with a healthy share of users. So the latest versions of both remain contenders as the software of choice for non-professional video and image editing."



I bought this bundle myself and have been using it for about a week, but since I have so many other things to review, I haven't gotten around to reviewing it. This Trusted Reviews article is the next best thing: overall, it's a pretty solid package, and you really can't beat the functionality of the two programs for the price. There are some glitches that I'm going to point out in another post though...
