I can't help you with the canon software, I use Lightroom. Best investment in my limited photography experience yet.
:yeah:
I think it runs about $145, but if you have a kid in school (or know someone that does), go through an educational software outlet like /www.journeyed.com/. It's < $80.

I was just bored so i played with your flower picture in photoshop.
Perfect David! That's exactly how I would have edited the photo for brightness! :) It's such a Beautiful Flower photo that it deserves a little fine tuning to make it Spectacular!

The comment was that the canon software will do a cleaner job sharpening, exposure editing etc. (personally I think the HDR in photo pro does a better job)
Lightroom is good for cataloging and doing batch edits, and cs5 for working with individual pictures, and elements is a light version of cs5.

Per the canon guys you want to use the canon photo pro software in your initial raw workflow. canon does not share their algorithms with adobe etc.I use CS for everything, including RAW worklow, its excellent. ;)

It’s said – LightRoom is for photographers and PhotoShop is for designers. This may be a little simplified, but mostly true.

I took these photos this morning with my new 350 and was trying out the software it comes with and just wanted some input or tips? One tip imperticular, how to resize down to the POTM contest :)

If you are using a PC, then go with Lightroom from Adobe. Simple to use with plenty of options for more advanced editing.
If you are using a Mac (which you should be) get aperture for $99. Best program for organizing and editing I've found yet.

If you want to use LightRoom, there are tons of "how-to" videos on YouTube. Also, LightRoom is a great organizational tool for all your photos.I have both and prefer CS over lightroom, and I'm not a designer. ;)

What Canon software do you have? If its Digital photo professional just click on file, then convert and save. At the bottom of the window there is a box to check "resize". Check it then resize to what you want. dont forget to save. Hope this helps.

Most people, as well as the POTM, try to keep them sized at 800 on the long side.I took these photos this morning with my new 350 and was trying out the software it comes with and just wanted some input or tips? One tip imperticular, how to resize down to the POTM contest :)
