				Hi,
 
 I have cs4 and am thinking of getting "Silver efex pro" for it supposed  ability to truly make a digital image look as if it is film. I use Genuine Fractuals 6 to make large prints and think they would look better with the discreet grain instead of the digital look. Has anyone been able to compare cs5's ability to add grain to "silver efex pro's". I probably would get the upgrade to cs5 over Silver efex if cs5 was as good as efex??
 
 I work in Black and white.
 
                               Thanks very much.  |

				You should download the thirty day trial and try it out for yourself. 
 
 
Give it a try, even if the grain thing doesn't work out, there may be other features that you'd like in CS5.  |
