Would Lightroom and Elements be better?Д«arry I agree that Photoshop these days is not necessarily a good match for the masses. But such photographers may need to re-assess whether Photoshop will ever again be a good match to their real needs. If most photographers were in Adobe's target, they would probably be justified in criticising the Cloud model and its pricing. Photoshop is just one part of the CC offering). (Judging by the announcement/presentation that I watched in real time a couple of days ago, they are addressing leading-edge creative professionals. Perhaps CC is the wrong model for many people here, but that is because they are no longer Adobe's target market for Photoshop. What I'm seeing in DPReview is an increasing mismatch between the direction Adobe is taking Photoshop and direction that would be suitable for typical photographers here. Hm! I've just seen a recent financial report that says they have exceeded their target revenues, and more than half of their recent revenues came from recurring sources such as the Creative Cloud and Marketing Cloud. People examining just the 'Photography' CC plan are seeing very little of CC. But I do use Lightroom - in fact I consider Photoshop to be a plugin to Lightroom where photography is concerned!) (Note: I'm going by demonstrations of Elements and what I've read - I don't use it myself. Lightroom continues to get capability that once needed Photoshop, and Elements, especially given the plugins available for it, does lots of things that older versions of Photoshop didn't. I think Adobe would argue that other people would be better off with Lightroom and/or Elements, both of which are available as 'not CC', which are targeted specifically at photographers rather than more general 'creative professionals'.

Photoshop goes far beyond 'photography' as typical people at DPReview see it, and will continue to be developed for leading-edge professional tasks. I think Adobe would argue that people who object to the subscription model are not really their target market for Photoshop.

I subscribe to the full CC, yet I'm retired. There is a large market they can sell to at the right price. Why is the 'Photography' CC plan a cheap anomaly? I think it is because, unlike most other Adobe apps, Photoshop is widely used by amateurs and photography-only professionals. Yet it provides (in my opinion) far more capability, representing far more development effort over the years.ДЄ recent report said that most recent Adobe revenues came from recurring payments including the Creative Cloud. It provides Lightroom + Photoshop for half the price of a CC plan for just (say) Dreamweaver. The 'Photography' CC plan is a bit of an anomaly. Most of those apps are mainly intended for professionals anyway. Full CC subscription gives access to nearly all of Adobe's major apps, of which Photoshop is just one of many. Adobe is heavily developing the Creative Cloud for leading-edge creative professionals.
