Product Description

Unleash the hidden potential for professional image editing in Adobe® Photoshop® Elements 7 with this essential book and DVD guide.


Using step-by-step instructions and movie tutorials, Mark Galer leads you through the less well-known and most powerful post-production editing techniques Adobe® Photoshop® Elements has to offer. Cunning tricks and clever workarounds in this book show you how to create inspiring, professional-looking images and perform tasks you only thought possible in the full Adobe® Photoshop® package.


Whether you're an imaging professional or a photography enthusiast, this book and DVD will help you get the maximum performance from your software. Learn how to:


* Create striking effects with no commercial lighting or studio equipment


* Extend the dynamic range of your digital camera by merging multiple exposures


* Optimize, enhance and montage images with stunning results


The DVD provides extensive support to the book with movie tutorials for all projects, high resolution images, multilayered files of completed projects, a stock library and a keyboard shortcut guide.



* Save money by unleashing the hidden potential of Elements 7 for professional image editing rather than upgrading to the full Photoshop software


* Practical, step-by-step projects show you how to solve real-world problems and create stunning images using clever workarounds and powerful, little-known techniques


* Full DVD support with more than 5 hours of tutorials, image files, a stock library and keyboard shortcut guide--worth the cover price alone!

5 out of 5 stars Best Bang for the Buck   March 20, 2010
Daniel L. Dauer (Saginaw, MI USA)
Although there is a newer version, photoshop 8 out. there are only a few changes and isen't worth the expense of upgrading. So you can get the most out of ver-7 with this book, and for the price you can't beat it!


5 out of 5 stars A top pick for any Photoshop Elements 7 user!   October 18, 2009
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
The DVD/book package Adobe Photoshop Elements 7: Maximum Performance shows how to produce professional-quality image editing without the need to upgrade to the more expensive, weighty and full version of Photoshop. Real-world projects are presented in step-by-step tutorials on editing techniques and using all facets of the program, from Camera Raw to optimize photos to channels, motion blur and other image-enhancing techniques. The DVD offers over 7 hours of movie tutorials, JPEG, and plug-in photo effects, among other elements. A top pick for any Photoshop Elements 7 user!


5 out of 5 stars Great for Intermediate Users   September 21, 2009
A. Wall (Sequim, WA)
I consider myself an intermediate user of photoshop elements. This book is a great mix of basic and intermediate steps to use photoshop elements efficiently. Especially for those of us unwilling to shell out the $$ for the full version of photoshop, this gives nice tricks for getting professional results. The CD is chock full of extras. The cost of this book threw me at first but it's worth it. Much better than free tutorials you can find online. Also... I didn't find anything that you can't use on Photoshop Elements 6 so don't worry if you haven't upgraded.


4 out of 5 stars Informative   June 30, 2009

So far, I have found this book to be a very informative and helpful in my quest to learn photoshop techniques. It is divided into chapters nicely and explains the subject matter pretty good. I have not had a chance to use much of the bonus material yet, like the video lessons. Installing the video lessons and the actions is easy. Finding it in your computer to use while in photoshop elements is a little tricky and I'm still working on that. Overall, though, this is a pretty good learning tool.


5 out of 5 stars You can do it with Elements!   May 21, 2009

Mark Galer had my attention in his introduction. You can do advanced editing with Elements and the program provides the tools most photographers will ever need. He then goes through and proves his point with a series sophisticated exercises that you would think you could only do in Photoshop. There are lots of bonus tips, Element actions, and tutorials on the accompanying DVD. Nice graphics, excellent examples, it is definitely worth a read.
