If anyone is wondering if the upgrade is worth it .......... every penny !!! Now 16 bit Superb very fast RAW conversion to 16bit PSP or Tiff Full colour management for those that need it / Nice tool to set up your monitor for those who havn't got colour calibration. Good noise reduction facility built in. Now has high pass sharpening ........ .... ..

Time to upgrade from8 then??? I guess if fast RAW conversion it will be. Wonder how it is saving images for web.Always think PS is better for that. Thanks and will go check this out.

Oh great. I was in PCWorld yesterday in Inverness and bought PSP 9 for 49.99, I thought that was a bit on the cheap side.. I'm just sitting here at 5:30 am and just about to load it and remove the 60 day trial version. Mmm Great timing ........ Oh well!!!

OK I am getting this for a trial first. Makes me wonder if it will be any better than my version 8. Seems the RAW converter is just Raw shooter which I have already...and one other bonus is the Album 6. Will repost after I try this. Oh Upgrades do not let you get the bonus features I believe. Thos are extra. Buying the full prgram gets you these free. From what I have seen when I went to the shopping cart. I always d that so I can see what the total will be and what you really get. Can always hit the back button.

So far I am likeing this new version.Not a bad RAW speed either.Still, I like Photoshops settings for RAW and Nikon View6 a little better. Larger image to view in those ones. One thing I see this doesn't have is the "command history" for going back to change more than one thing. PSP8 has it...so does 7. Previewing in full window also is a bit messed up. Returning from that makes the colour pallete go all funny and scrinches up the image.

Doug, PSP 9 which I have just bought also has Album 6 and animation shop. PSP do not do upgrades as far as I know, they only sell full programs with free-bees.

Must have been Late SunDay afternoon when they finished this one, it has some whacky glitches for them to sort out. Steve - There are upgrades on the Corel website but there are some funny glitches in the trial ones at the moment. Pity because it has so many good things going for it.

Cheers Onslow. Haven't come any glitches in PSP 9, been using the trial version for nearly 2 months. Yep I'm staying with PSP, tried PS CS trial, and that was a trial.... Tried PS Elements 3, I liked the RAW convertor but the rest sent me mad!!!! So I'm still in the PSP camp and have been sind PSP 3, Mmm that was a long time ago. Tried the Adobe route, but it's what you are used I suppose. Anyway now with PSP 9 from version 7 (big gap)!!! Steve

I think I will wait for 10.1 in a few weeks or months.I did that with 8 and soon after they put 8.1 with the fixes.Totally agree with Steve on the Elements.I really like the speed of PSP for graphics. Still got a trial of CS on other PC and to me it's way off price for what I use in it.
