Latest version of Adobe Photoshop Elements
ADOBE has announced the latest version of its entry-level photo- editing software. Photoshop Elements 2018 sees the company moving away from using version numbers – the previous iteration was called Elements 15. Instead, versions will be based on the year of its release.
The software is generally geared towards those who need to perform basic edits, and unlike Adobe’s flagship software, it’s not necessary to pay a monthly subscription to use it.
New features of the software include an Automatic Selection feature, which helps you to cut subjects away from a background with ease. The second feature, which may be particularly appealing to family photographers, is the ability to replace closed eyes in group shots. It does this by using another photo of the subject to blend them into your group shot.
Guided Edits, such as replacing one background with another, or creating double exposures, are also included to help you perform what would otherwise be complicated edits, quickly and easily.
Also included as part of the software is Elements Organiser 2018 that comes with some new features. For example, auto curate helps to sort through the best photos from a large collection of images based on subjects, faces, the quality of the image and more.
For those who need to edit video, Adobe Premier Elements 2018 is also available. Both are ready to download now, costing £86.56 for Photoshop Elements, or £130.36 for both Photoshop Elements 2018 and Premiere Elements 2018. For more details, visit adobe.com.
