Whether you're helping corporate clients communicate through images, expressing your vision in fine art, or capturing life's moments at weddings, in portraits, or for news media, you're driven by the art of your craft. That's why professional photographers have long relied on Adobe Photoshop software for the ultimate in creative control and image quality. New Photoshop CS5 helps you achieve the visual and emotional effects you’re after with re-engineered features for reducing and adding grain, performing post-crop vignetting, and sharpening. CS5 reinvents HDR imaging with Exposure Merge, which makes it easy to preserve the full tonal range of a scene—or go from photorealistic to wildly surrealistic—and automatically remove ghost artifacts. It delivers new black-and-white conversion features and a GPU-enabled crop experience. It accelerates your workflow with powerful new selection technology, integrated Adobe Mini Bridge for faster file browsing, and cross-platform 64-bit support for faster performance.
