Those prices were for annual upgrades to the latest perpetual versions not annual subscription pricing. According to Topaz they don't have subscriptions. If the newest versions don't have enough new features to make upgrading cost effective users can stay with the current version they already own. It is not very different from the pricing of perpetual licenses from many other software publishers. This whole thread is much to do about nothing.
Everything I have from them will continue but I will not get any more updates. What I have now works really well and there are always other ways to denoise and sharpen.
[quote=MeganC]Hello, just joining up and trying to further my interest in photography!
My cameras are a Canon 50D, a Canon 60D, and a Canon EOS M200. Not much I know but what I can afford![/quot Welcome. If one is a photographer, I can think of no better place to live than Cody, Wyoming.
A year and a half ago I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. After three operations and treatment (and six months out from the last operation) I went in today for a checkup. As of now, I am cancer free. I had been dreading this appointment.
What a great way to start the New Year. Praise the Lord.
In addition there are a half dozen or more educators that have made themselves famous in the photography world. My favorite is Matt Kloskowski. He has courses you can buy. His teaching style if very good.
Others include Victoria Brampton (the Lightroom Queen). She has a good book. Anthony Morganti has a very good YouTube channel that is free but I don't think he has a current introductory tutorial.
