Phocus might be nice if I still had my Hassie, but I'm perfectly happy with my D800. (I did calibrate it for my camera, so that might make a difference.) My main use for LR is it's database and indexing. But then I'm not as offended by LR's converter as you may be. I was unimpressed with CameraOne Raw, unlike most of the rest of the known universe. People have lots of various preferences in a raw converter. Although, since you cannot buy PS anymore, but only pay the monthly fee for it, and since it comes with LR, I am, as I said, a bit confused. Yes: you can buy LR all by itself, and own it outright. You " avoided LR like the plague" and " LR didn't impress" but you want to buy a copy anyway? " Is it possible to have LR without PS? " OK. I'll admit your reply leaves me a bit confused, but I'll respond as best I can. Meanwhile, the PG sharpening has been incorporated into LR, so that takes of that, and I've switched to other tools in PS, such as FocusMagic, and others, and march onward. Support at PG simply gave up trying to fix it, and now it's been, what? three years? since the last update. until the day that every one of their products refused to run, at all. Some third-party software won't take PSDs but will take TIFs. ![]() My choice is to keep the "working" file and/or master in PSD and file/print the flattened TIFFs. I believe Adobe's response to all that kerfuffle was the "ensure compatibility" option in prefs.Įric Chan (at Adobe) is of the "6 of one, half-dozen of the other" school. I'd say that if you want to round-trip things (LR -> PS ->LR -> PS) you'd want to stay with PSD, especailly if you're using the latest-and-greatest whiz-bang layering tools. That said, there are photoshop layers that won't embed in TIF file, and TIF files may be larger. That's normal for forward progress in software: old stuff will usually open fine for a long while, but new stuff, with new features, won't open in old software that doesn't recognize the new features. I do know that all my old PS files open just fine in CC, although I doubt my new CC files will open with specialized layers in, say PS6. As to that old "buzz" if I recall correctly it was about backward compatibility, not forward.
