Quote:I hear you... I actually have LR and the "Big" PS as rental software, but I just don't like them that much, especially LR. Still being an Apple Aperture user, I'll have to switch to something else someday, even though there is no pressure, yet, Aperture still works fine on the latest OS X build.
But my feeling is that I'll rather switch to something like C1 combined with Pixelmator instead of an Adobe-only solution.

On Apple OS, we really have some nice/r alternatives than PS: PhotoLine32, Pixelmator or Affinity Photo. I lately became a big fan of the latter, Pixelmator rests on the drive but has no real advantages. And PhotoLine is very good for batch processing and PDF work, but it might be, Affinity Designer or Publisher can do the same or better.
Both very affordable and not too difficult to get used to, Affinity put some great tutorials on Vimeo. I'm also using Aperture until the bitter end, but will give C1 9 a try soon. The new version got some nice features, but so far I wasn't too happy about the uninspired picture management.
