Adobe today shipped Adobe Photoshop CS2, an upgrade to the professional industry standard for digital image editing and creation. Available as a stand-alone software application or as a component of the Adobe Creative Suite 2, also shipping today, Photoshop CS2 software is equipped with indispensable new features and simplified workflows delivering a greater level of power, precision and control to photographers, film, video and creative professionals.
Adobe Photoshop CS2 users will push creative boundaries with many new powerful and dynamic features, including Vanishing Point, which allows users to clone, paint and transform image objects while retaining visual perspective. The new Image Warping feature makes it easy to fold, stretch, pull, twist and bend images. A variety of new tools and commands address common, photographic problems, such as the Spot Healing Brush for blemishes and dust, the Red Eye Tool, Lens Correction, Smart Sharpen and Remove Noise. Smart Objects allow users to scale and transform images and vector illustrations without losing image quality — as well as create linked duplicates of embedded graphics — so that a single edit updates across multiple iterations.
” Adobe Photoshop CS2 is a mind-blowing new product innovation,” said Bill Hurter, president, Wedding & Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) in the press release. “From Vanishing Point to the Bridge to the absolutely magical qualities of the Healing Brush, the new Photoshop , which is but one part of CS2, will keep photographers and graphic artists busy catching up to the program for years. The most intuitive Photoshop yet.”
