If you are a Photoshop expert and perform many tasks automatically without much conscious thought, you’re going to be at a disadvantage when using PaintShop Pro-you’ll undergo a good deal of negative transfer because many names, keyboard shortcuts, and procedures are different. (You even get a short history lesson in a text box that explains the effects!) For example, Time Machine transforms your image into an antique that you choose by adjusting a slider that is incremented in various photographic eras beginning in 1839. There are several creative features as well, and you can see a mini-preview of the effect before selecting it. Each workspace is filled with useful, simple-to-use features like Smart Photo Fix, an automated, one-touch image correction program. Once selected, images can be opened in either Adjust (which is loosely similar to Lightroom) or Edit, the main post-processing application. To organize and access your images, there is a browser called Manage. Operationally, PaintShop Pro X6 is straightforward and easy to follow.

So that leaves us with one burning question: does PaintShop Pro X6 Ultimate have the horsepower to satisfy your needs as a photographer? The answer must begin with an objective self-assessment. To get the greatest performance from PaintShop Pro, Corel recommends using Boot Camp instead of other popular emulation applications because it allocates more system resources to their editing software. Corel, publisher of PaintShop Pro X6, tells us that 7 percent of PaintShop Pro users have Macs and over half of them are using Mac OS X 10.8. At this price, users of other, more expensive photo-editing software should be tempted to investigate. Affordable? How does $99 sound? If you are a current registered PaintShop Pro user, the upgrade fee is $20 less.
