ZoominMX-5 said:74 pages is a lot of pages to go through, but has anyone tried Aperture for their Macs? I'm thinking about getting it. The price is right, and does just about everything i'd want it to.
Any comments on it?
rjmhotrod said:I have two Macs but no Aperture. Haven't needed it yet. But then again, I've not messed with it all (at the Apple Store) so I don't know if I need it. Sorry I can't comment on Aperture one way or the other. I've just been using iPhoto and Photoshop and occassionally some of the Canon software that came with my camera.
ZoominMX-5 said:Yah i think im going to wait a bit and see what the final word is between the retail vers. of lightroom and aperture. I refuse to obtain a pirated copy of Photoshop, so purchasing it is nearly out of the question at the moment. I really don't need to do "super editing", I would just like to increase workflow, and little basic editing here and there.

Thank you so much for that link! It pretty much sums up what info I've acquired over the last week or so.NVP5White said:I just saw this Ars review (on Slashdot) and thought it pertinent to the conversation:

This is the conclusion page; the rest of the article has some good insights as well. A third option (for Nikon users, at least) is to use Nikon Capture NX to convert from RAW and make basic global adjustments. I think this latest version of Capture could be a worthwile investment, but only after I get a faster computer.
