| Slightly
changed interface (workarea
screenshot).
2 new palettes - Histogram
(previously available as a dialog box) and Layer
Comps. The Layer Comps palette
is intended for designers. It allows you to save alternate
versions of your image (layers' visibility, position and
style) in a single PSD file*.
*BTW, users of the previous
PS versions can do the same using the Animation
palette :)
All Photoshop features are now available to 16-bit
images (users of the earlier versions have to convert such
images to 8-bit color mode first), except for several filters.
3 new semi-automatic commands in the
Adjustments menu - Match Color
(screenshot),
Photo Filter (screenshot)
and Shadow/Highlight (animated
screenshot).
Now you can put a text a on a path or
inside a shape. A great feature.
A new semi-automatic tool has appeared in the Toolbox.
The Color Replacement 
Tool (known by Photoshop Elements users as Red Eye
Tool) combines selective and painting functions (movie).
New command Crop and Straighten Photos
automatically extracting and straightening one or more images
from your scan (came from Photoshop Elements).
New dialog Keyboard Shortcuts allowing
you to define custom shortcut*
for any command (animated
screenshot).
*Users of the previous
versions can do it through the Actions palette.
Camera Raw plugin allows to change digital
camera settings before opening an image in Photoshop (screenshot).
*Users of the previous
versions may import raw files through their camera maker's
plugin if available. (see
example).
