I have always been a fan of Adobe Photoshop ever since I first got a copy of Photoshop 2 many many moons ago. But last year I was introduced to Adobe Photoshop Elements, which I have found very useful and in a lot of ways for basic photo editing can be a better option than Photoshop CS.

The training course also introduced me to the Digital Negative file format (.DNG). Using this file format has many advantages to the native NEF file produced by my Nikon DSLR. It contains within it any edits that have been made by ACR, a jpeg preview. The file is also compressed so it takes up less hard drive space, which is becoming more of an issue as my catalogue of photographs has expanded. You can also include a copy of the original native RAW file if you like, but this does take up a lot more file space.
If you opened the wallet enough to get yourself a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS5 then its well worth your time and money to invest in these two training courses from Lynda.com.
