What are the feature differences between Photoshop Premiere Elements and Photoshop Elements?

Do I need both programs since it appears that Photoshop Elements is embedded into Premiere Elements?

Thanks, Ron

Reg,

Part of the problem is not understanding what the names of the two programs are:

Photoshop Premiere Elements and Photoshop Elements?

As pointed out, the two separate programs are:

Adobe Photoshop Elements (Image editing program)

Adobe Premiere Elements (video editing program)

Either, or both, will come with the Elements Organizer, but if one has both programs, only one version of that will be installed.

Also, as mentioned above, there can be user confusion, when one buys the bundle with both programs (plus the Elements Organizer) inside.

Good luck, and if you need additinal clarification, do not hesitate to ask.

I have both Adobe Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (which includes Photoshop Elements). Thus do I need both or will just Premiere elements suffice to handle both Images and video?

I have used Elements for some time, but recently to support some videos I downloaded the bundled Premiere Elements and now it seems like I have two Photoshop Elements. What am I not understanding?

There is a very limited capability for Adobe Premiere Elements to edit Images, but that capability really only translates to the use of the Image in Video - which Adobe Premiere Elements edits well.

Adobe Photoshop Elements is a full-featured Image editor, and can output to say a printer, or to another program, such as Premiere Elements.

If you wish to do any Image editing, you will want Adobe Photoshop Elements. If you wish to do any video editing, you will want Adobe Premiere Elements.

Good luck,
