Review by Bill M.

This is very good software for the casual/non-serious photographer/photo editor. Most people fall into this category, and I believe that’s who this program is intended for. And if you are non-serious about your photography/photo editing, I’m sure you will be quite happy with this program’s features and capabilities. However, if you are a serious photographer that needs/wants an array of professional level tools that provide uncompromising, professional level results, you will almost certainly NOT be happy with this program’s features and capabilities. In fact, I can’t imagine you being anything but sorely disappointed.

This is simply not by any stretch of the imagination a photo editing program for a serious photographer, and you need to understand that upfront. But, this program is priced accordingly. This is software for the casual photographer who wants all the basic, plus some fun photo editing tools to quickly edit photos for personal use, Facebook and such.

However, with all that being said, this program does have some excellent tools, 64-bit architecture support, RAW support and is capable of Ultra 4K slideshow output. But again, in my opinion, this program clearly isn’t for the professional photographer, and at this program’s price point, in my mind at least, it’s clearly not intended for the professional photographer, so those features merely add value to this program for the casual photographer.

So - bottom line - this is very good software for the casual photographer at a very good price. If you understand this going in, I am certain you will be pleased with this program.
