Adobe's Premiere Elements now available for Mac

Adobe has released Premiere Elements for the Mac. Premiere Elements is Adobe's consumer-level image and video editing software, and this is the first time a Mac version has been released.

This release -- version 9 -- offers some pretty cool features, like optimized editing of HD video and those neat photo books (much like the ones you can create with iPhoto). They're a big hit with Grandma.

Much more powerful technology is behind the Photomerge Style Match feature, which is smart enough to match the style of one photo with another. Let's say you've got a beautiful landscape shot with ominous clouds, sparkling water and an impressive foreground, all perfectly exposed. Another picture is completely washed out and would be better if it looked like the former. Photomerge Style Match does its best to make that happen. You can watch a short demo video here.

There's much more to this software, so go and read the details. Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, which is also available now, and Premier Elements 9 are priced at US$99 each. You can buy both for $149. Mac and Windows versions of the applications are included.

Seriously? What's so bad about Adobe products? I mean sure, Flash has its security issues, and runs like a pig on lower end hardware, but to bash the rest of their lineup based on the surrounding drama over the big Apple Issue of Contention? Comeon. This is ridiculous.

The author either missed the point that there are 2 different products, or it's just poorly written.

Premiere Elements is the consumer-level video editing program.

Photoshop Elements is the consumer-level photo editing program.

You can by either one for $79 on the website after rebate, or both for $149.
