"Mark Dahm on Photoshop Elements 6" - Digital Photography Podcast 103

Mark Dahm, Adobe Product Manager

Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 walks a tightrope that balances cutting edge imaging technology with ease of use. It is designed for hobbyist photographers who want to manage, edit, and output pictures from their digital cameras. Elements 6 is the Windows version of the application. Photoshop Elements for the Mac will be out early next year.

My quest to learn more about this intriguing application led me to the doorstep of Mark Dahm, Adobe Senior Product Manager for Photoshop Elements. As you can imagine, Mark is passionate about this software, and he did a great job of highlighting its features and explaining many of Adobe's decisions around this product. I think both Mac and Windows users will enjoy what Mark has to say.

The last two podcasts have I downloaded from itunes were only partial files for some reason. Maybe it's just an issue with me but all my other podcasts came down fine.

heard on the podcast that you could try elements 6.0 but it is not available to try from the website that I checked. Just to pass that one for anyone looking for it to try.

Valuable information and excellent design you got here! I would like to thank you for sharing your thoughts and time into the stuff you post!! Thumbs up
