 Good but not as a bundle June 12, 2008

Elements 6 is great, it is friendly stable and productive. I have to say that it doesnt seem to offer that much more than 5 though.
However, as a bundle this is really poor. Premiere 4 is VERY unstable and slooooow even on high spec machines. Avoid the bundle and but Elements on its own or even gor for Elements 5 which might be cheaper but isnt Vista compatible.

Why has this amazing software package increased by 15.00 on amazon? It was listed for 99.99 yesterday. Without it being on sale before it seems unreasonable for AMAZON to simply up the prices like this...
 Good choice for advanced home user February 21, 2008

While good to get you going, the photo and video packages often bundled with PCs etc really don't give you anything advanced and easy to use (I mean the budget editions that usually cost about 25 to buy separately).
So after deciding that I no way need the mega-functionality of professional packages (even if I could afford splashing out several hundred pounds on one!) I looked into reviews from a number of different sources on a couple of mid-range packages but the only way to really know is to try one out first before buying.
Adobe have a try-before-buy scheme for stuff like this on their website (the Pro versions and the Elements versions of PhotoShop and Premier are available) although the file downloads are naturally very big. It was after trying these that made me buy the Elements bundle.
I spent pretty much a whole weekend with the trial version (which is fully featured with a 30day timeout) editing holiday photos and video clips trying out various features - it's really quite intuitive to use and (so far) I haven't had any of the crashes that others have experienced so for me it gets a thumbs up.
Surprisingly, ordering from Amazon was a couple of pounds cheaper than buying the unlock codes direct from Adobe and also gets you the installation DVD and manuals. Note though that you have to uninstall the downloaded time-limited version and then reinstall from the disk as the licence codes with the disk won't unlock the downloaded time-limited version.
Superb product apart from the lack of AVCHD support November 28, 2007

This product trumps the competitors in my view, in having the ability not only to organise both still pictures and video footage in one system, but also to use either type of media easily in whatever you are making. It is easy to make anything from a DVD to a website, or output to numerous devices such as mobile phones or PDAs.
Most importantly for irreplaceable stills and clips it has excellent backup (with verification) facilities, including backing up to anything from a hard drive to a blue ray disc and everything in between.
The photo editing tools and video editing tools are for the most part the same as the top of the range professional versions from Adobe, however much more simple to use. The Premiere Elements part (video editing) has a particularly simple interface compared with most products, despite having very wide-ranging capabilities. I would have given 5 stars except..
The one big howler is the inability to edit video from the latest Sony and Panasonic high definition camcorders which record to memory chips (AVCHD format) and which I believe will ultimately dominate the upper end of the "prosumer" market because of their wonderful picture quality, portability and lack of moving parts (lens excluded).
Therefore if Adobe introduce this capability, or if you are confident you'll never use the AVCHD format then this is, I believe, the best product for enthusiastic amateurs.
