Ok my laptop (which is very old!) is struggling with even the basics of processing photos - to be honest it's struggling with most things.
Am going to treat myself to a new laptop but was wondering which processor I should opt for. My choice is between a laptop with an i3 or i5 processor or an AMD A6 processor. Does anyone know much about the AMD A6 and whether it is as good as say the i3 for photo processing.
I thought that while I was at it I would get a photo processing programme. I have no experience with these as I have only used the free programme that came with my canon camera. The choice is basically between photoshop elements and lightroom. I am leaning toward photoshop elements as I am doing an online photography course and part of this involves training in using photoshop. However I was wondering what the pros and cons of the 2 programmes are for bird/wildlife pictures?
Any help/advice appreciated.
