Well I've had CS6 for a while now and is it worth the money. The full version is getting on for around £900, ir around £190 if you upgrade from an earlier version.
Whats new, theres a better content aware tool, some tweeks to the graphics, a different interface (well slightly different) A totally changed crop tool, which personally I hate. Theres some new blur effects, so you can get a tilt shift type effect easier (although it wasn't difficult before)
It now has a background save feature that might be a get out of jail free card if PS crashes (it auto saves every ten minutes or so (you choose) coulbe be usefull if you spend a lot of time working on tricky images.
It has better brushes, and a wideangle sort of correction tool, that has other uses as well in correcting image angles. They also added better video support.
Easily the best new feature is the new camera raw, while the look remains more or less the same (they have changed the names of the sliders) the converted works much better, more highlight recovery and better shadow detail, and it works on 32 bit images as well so you can process your combined hdr here.
Is it worth the money? Well I must admit I still mostly use CS5, one because my plug-ins are in there and it's a pain in the arse to move them all over, and two, I really hate the new crop tool, after years of it working one way it now works like lightrooms. I do love the new better raw engine but is it really worth £900... No is probably the honest answer, if you upgrade it's probably a good deal. Otherwise... you pay your money and you make the choice.
