[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 1129215, member: 45350"] I am assuming by Adobe here you mean Photoshop Elements (PSE). You should realize that Aperture is not a competing program to PSE (as ChasM explained above). I have both and they work together well. If you want to play with Post Processing then Adobe PSE is a fairly inexpensive way to get started. I paid $69 USD for PSE 9.0 recently. I don't have any experience with the other packages reccomended but it makes sense to me to try the free versions first. Also, be aware that most packages (including Aperture and Lightroom) can be download as Demos for a free trial period. For what it is worth, unless you plan to get heavily into graphics editing (as in Adobe CS) I would invest in a DSLR before I spent much money on a software package, in the long run I think it will do more for your photography. You can spend many fruitless hours trying to correct in Post Processing what could have been easily overcome by better planning of the shoot, control of lighting and proper equipment selection.
