#Adobe photoshop elements 13 review upgrade#

I’ve been using PSE 14 since launch and wanted to upgrade for some newer features. Or if you are just getting into photo editing, PSE 2020 is probably the best entry point to start learning (lots of free learning material on YouTube) But if you are looking to stick with PSE upgrading from an older version, it’s worth it. Also, for Camera Raw and the latest camera/lens support.If you have more modern hardware that me, it may be worth trying trial versions of other software before PSE 2020 – there is better value for money to be had. If you don’t have a DVD drive it may be worth you still picking up the DVD version just for the code as at the time of this review it’s cheaper than a download code.There are some nice and easy to use guided edits in PSE 2020 compared to PSE 14. I didn’t even have to take the DVD out of its sleeve. My laptop is a dual core/4 thread i7, 8GB RAM and 1GB Nvidia graphics.So, with that in mind, I bought the retail DVD and used the code to unlock the trial version. The other offerings had my laptop running at 100% utilisation in a lot of instances which is something I want to avoid due to the noise and heat. PSE 2020 had the most basic feature set but it was the most stable software and more importantly for me, the most optimised for older hardware. I tried trial versions of software by Corel, Affinity and PSE 2020.
