I have now been using GIMP (2.2.7)for my photographs for about 6 months...and I would say...that once you know GIMP even 25- 30% you will know its power...It can do literally anything...and like PS plugins...GIMP has lots and lots of plugins and scripts available which can do literally anything for you....from noise reduction to correcting Chromatic Abberations to 100s of other manupulations. One of the wekness though is a bigger learning curve. Let me tell you this...if you have time to invest GIMP will do everything you want...and I mean everything. and yes one more..it does not support 16 bit.
and BTW...I have used Photoshop for 4 years...never used elements tho...PS is such a memory hogger...I have got fed-up of it...
