Adobe today announced Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 & Adobe Premiere Elements 10 bundle for Windows and Mac, the newest version of Adobe?s photo- and video-editing software.

Photoshop Elements 10 features enhanced content-intelligent tools powered by the same engine that fuels Adobe Photoshop software. New Guided Edits, like Depth of Field and Picture Stack, provide step-by-step guidance to create inspiring photos. Also, Facebook enthusiasts will now enjoy the ability to tag photos based on their Friends List.

Photoshop Elements 10 also adds more ways to work with photos creatively, like the ability to add text that automatically follows the outline of a subject or a custom path and crop guides. Also, users can now apply 30 new Smart Brush effects by simply brushing over an area of the photo.

Adobe Premiere Elements 10 includes new tools that take the work out of video editing and let users focus on making home movies. From one-click tools that easily correct and enhance visual clarity for perfect color throughout the movie, to new InstantMovie themes that intelligently build movies in seconds.

Enhanced pan and zoom capability adds drama to a story and automated options take the work out of finding faces with the pan and zoom process. Sharing finished projects is easy with options to upload directly to Facebook and YouTube as well as export in AVCHD format allowing users to burn HD movies. And for the first time, Adobe Premiere Elements offers enhanced performance for 64-bit Windows 7 users.

The Organizer offers the ability to organize and manage files with precision so users spend less time searching for what they want. The new Object Search makes finding photos based on what is in them as easy as drawing a box around the object. Also, to keep an entire collection of photos organized and clutter free, the new ability to search for duplicate photos helps users quickly group and delete photos they don't need.

Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 10 users can purchase Adobe's integrated online services Elements Plus, which includes 20GB of storage for automatic online backup and sharing (up to 15,000 photos or four hours of DVD-quality video), as well as access to a library of how-to's, artwork, templates, movie themes and effects.

Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 10 offer users a set of sharing capabilities for today?s social and mobile worlds. Whether a social networking site or sharing service like Facebook, Flickr, YouTube, Photoshop.com or a personal website, users can share creations directly from within the Elements Organizer and view them from virtually anywhere on the go. Photoshop Elements 10 also enables developers to create tablet and mobile applications that interact with the software via the included API.
