By David
Access Method:Box| Edition:Standard Version (Mac)|Amazon Verified Purchase
Can there be anything left to say about this awesome product ... ?
As a hobbyist photographer I only scratch the surface of it's might.
As a pensioner I wince at the price
Hardly a day goes by when I don't use it and at the time of writing this, I am not aware of anything else that comes even close.

5.0 out of 5 stars An impressive upgrade 16 May 2012
Access Method:Box| Edition:Standard Version (Mac)|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've been using Photoshop for years, pretty much always the latest version, and it's fair to say that not all upgrades have been equally significant. CS6 is genuinely a solid new version, with some very useful additions and tweaks.

I primarily use PS for software and web user interface designs and mockups, rather than photo editing or retouching. I work with large documents, dozens or hundreds of layers, and make heavy use of Layer Styles. If your job involves retouching, I'm still sure you'll find many worthwhile new features here (Content-Aware Patch, and Blur Gallery are prime examples), but my own experience naturally focuses on the type of work I do. Here's what I'm most enjoying in CS6:

1. True vector shapes. Shapes created with the various Shape tools now have genuine strokes as well as fills, as you may be familiar with from Adobe Illustrator. These are entirely independent of the Stroke Layer Style. You can apply a colour, gradient or pattern stroke to a shape (or disable the stroke entirely), and you can apply dashed, dotted and even custom line-gap-line-gap styles of line with your own choice of corner types, mitering etc. It opens up a lot of possibilities for scaleable graphic effects without using a lot of layers.

2. Global pixel-snapping. There's finally a global option (in Preferences) to make all vector tools and transforms auto-snap to the pixel grid, for sharp edges. They've also correspondingly refined the relationship between zoom-level and nudging (you can still get the old behaviour too). This saves so much hassle with partial-pixel anti-aliasing mess around the edges of shapes.

3. Layer search.
