Not everyone likes the monthly subscription model, but Lightroom and Photoshop continue to dominate the market for photo-editing software. And for good reason!

The two programs pack in so many powerful tools: from quick and effective raw file processing to full-on image manipulation. The latest AI extras are game-changers too, particularly with noise reduction and distracting object removal, and if you use DxO software as Adobe plug-ins, you get the best of both worlds.

To kick off Black Friday week, Amazon has now cut the price of the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography Package for Windows and Mac to a very competitive £62.99 for a one-year licence. That works out just over £5 a month for Photoshop and Lightroom, which is less than I spend on parmesan cheese!
