Photoshop started the digital imaging revolution more than 30 years ago, and Adobe's groundbreaking application is still the best photo editing software. If you need image editing with layers, typography, drawing and a variety of effects, you should buy Photoshop.

Designers and photographers will find the most advanced tools for their craft in this app. Recent additions include impressive neural filters, sky replacement, live shapes, better control over files stored in the cloud and a pattern preview.

New features include one-click selection, sharing for annotation, better integration with Illustrator, improved colour gradients and new AI-powered tools such as the Landscape Mixer and Colour Transfer. One thing that has been removed from Photoshop, however, is 3D modelling, which must now be sourced from the company's Substance 3D range.

There are more new features for Photoshop, many of them related to the web and collaboration. Exciting new announcements from Adobe include a new team collaboration space called Canvas and an online repository for sharing assets and projects called Spaces.
The company has also announced a limited web-based version of Photoshop and Creative Cloud Express, a template-based design tool for anyone who needs to create professional-looking content for social media.

How to configure Photoshop

To install the app, you first need to install the Creative Cloud utility, which is responsible for updates and syncing files online. Here you can also find news from Adobe, archive images and the Behance community for creatives (more on this later). With the latest Photoshop update, you can also easily search for and install plug-ins via the Creative Cloud utility.

You should only consider installing Photoshop on a powerful PC or Mac. Tested on a 3.4GHz Core i7 PC with Windows 10 64-bit, 16GB RAM and an Nvidia GeForce 1650 graphics card. It requires Windows 10 64-bit version 1909 or higher, 8MB of RAM and 4GB of free hard drive space. Runs on Windows on ARM with the same requirements. Mac users must use macOS 10.15 or higher with 8 GB RAM and a Metal-compatible GPU. Apple Silicon Macs can also run Photoshop as long as they run macOS 11.2.2 or later. We have done some testing on this hardware and found that Photoshop offers some performance advantages on this platform.

Beyond the use of Photoshop

Photoshop is making it easier and easier to do amazing things with digital images. New features like integrated stock photography, advanced font tools and organisation and synchronisation features like documents and cloud libraries are unique to the app.
Apart from photography, there is no photo editing software with better, more comprehensive or more precise tools for drawing and typography that are constantly being improved. Adobe has also recognised the move towards mobile and web-centric design. Photoshop's position as the leading photo-editing programme is still assured.
Adobe Photoshop is the gold standard in the world of image editing and is used by amateurs and professionals all over the world. It has come a long way since its beginnings in the early 1990s and has recently become more useful than ever to photographers thanks to Adobe Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw.
These three programmes work hand in hand and offer a similar experience to Adobe Lightroom, albeit with more subdivisions.

How much does Photoshop cost?
