1. Re: Photoshop Elements 16 bit/ProPhoto RGB ?
dj_paige Jun 30, 2013 7:39 AM (in response to LJH)Can anyone shed any light on future releases of PSE and if/when this functionality will be included.
Only Adobe knows for sure, not any one of us here in the forum
Nevertheless, if I had to guess, I would say that Adobe wants to differentiate its products, and so it provides its top of the line features only in its top of the line software.

At this point in time I don't believe PSE10 or indeed 11 supports 16 bit working or ProPhoto RGB.
16 bits : PSE10 and PSE11 support 16 bits, except for layers and local tools.
Both can handle native Prophoto files. Just try it with Prophoto files from Lightroom. You are limited to sRGB or aRGB if you are working from your camera's raws or jpegs directly in PSE, but since you have Lightroom, you don't miss anything.
But the real answer is that advanced Elements users without LR do use the ACR module, which works in 16 bits and Prophoto (from raws or jpegs). Nearly all adjustments where 16 bits is important to avoid posterization can be done in ACR. Anyway all your output devices (display or printer) will require 8 bits and sRGB or aRGB.
