Heres an example i made 10 min ago for a light/mild artificial HDR on a low res photo.

- Yeah, I completely agree about that for HDR.
- And that's a good reason why I still debate over just going with a higher software for P.S.

HDR, meh. That's all I have to say about it haha

most people that use PS say that CS3 is really all you need and you really dont need to go higher than that.

For me I use CS5 because i use lots of custom presets and brushes that CS5 handles better than CS3. And content aware fill brush is fucking amazing.

Yep, Content Aware Fill is a godsend. I shot a wedding and the bridezilla asked for some ridiculous edits that would've taken me forever to accomplish, but instead I got it done in mere minutes thanks to the Content Aware Fill.

Hardly. I still have a lot to learn myself, and there are a lot of things I'm not very good at.

Try upgrading Lightroom to 3.5.

http://www.adobe.com/support/downloa...jsp?ftpID=5255 (mac)

A lot of camera support has been added since the original 3.0 release.

Pentax shooter here with a good mix of zooms/primes. I'd consider myself more a 'guy-with-camera' than an actual photographer though. Mainly been shooting fashion runway so far, but would like to do some portrait/studio work at some point. Hard to find someone to put in front of the camera.

Post processing is hell for me. I think 80% of my photos sit on my computer waiting to be edited. Starting to get the hang of lightroom, but still have no clue with photoshop.
