Adobe Photoshop CS2 + Image ready CS2
It's hard to imagine that Adobe can make
Photoshop any better than this. Long considered the professional image-editing
standard among graphic digital artists worldwide,
Photoshop is certain to cement that reputation even further with the array
of new features offered in Adobe PhotoShop CS2.
Artists, creative professionals,
photographers, and industry professionals will
find that the workflow and image customization enhancements will be worth
far more than the price of the upgrade.
Adobe Bridge (formerly File Browser)
Adobe Bridge software is the new-generation File Browser--Photoshop's
navigational control center that allows you to browse, organize,
label, and preview graphics and Photoshop files
quickly and efficiently. Adobe Bridge takes File Browser, introduced in
Photoshop 7.0, a step further by providing centralized access to your suite
project files, applications, and settings. With Adobe Bridge, you can process
multiple camera raw images at once; resize, rate and label thumbnails;
review images in slide show mode; and more. With file organization and
sharing, plus Adobe Stock Photos at your fingertips all the time, you simply
search for the files you want to place using metadata--such as key words,
colors or image resolution--and seamlessly drag and drop your files into
Photoshop. You can even page through an entire Adobe PDF file right in
the preview panel of Adobe Bridge. And with Adobe Bridge, you can also
browse, search and purchase royalty-free images from leading stock photo
agencies without ever leaving InDesign CS2. It's as simple as that.
Revolutionary Vanishing Point and Image Warp
Photographers especially will be amazed at the effects that Vanishing
Point can bring to a project. Clone, paint, and paste elements
that automatically match the perspective of the
surrounding image area in a fraction of the time that it currently takes.
With Image Warp, you can easily create packaging mock-ups or other dimensional
effects by wrapping an image around any shape. Place your client's logo
around a coffee cup, or stretch, curl or bend an image across the hood of a car or around the Space Shuttle, for that matter.
The effects you can create with
Image Warp will be limited only by your imagination.
Digital Camera Raw File Support
Accelerate your raw file workflow with simultaneous processing
of multiple images while you continue working. With Photoshop CS2, you
can import images into your choice of formats, including Digital Negative
(DNG); enjoy automatic adjustments to exposure, shadows, and brightness
and contrast; and much more. This exciting new enhancement provides fast
and easy access within Photoshop software to the "raw" image
formats produced by many leading professional and mid-range digital cameras.
The Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in--now
available as part of Photoshop CS2--has been updated to support more cameras
and include more features.
Spot Healing Brush and One-Click Red-eye Correction
Never have touch ups been so easy. With the Spot Healing
Brush, you can effortlessly retouch photos--including 16-bit images--in
a single click. Red-eye Correction lets you instantly neutralize red eyes
and also lets you set pupil size and darkening level.
