Industry News
Aperture 1.1 Finally on the Shelves, and a New Lower Price.
Apple's Aperture software program has the ability to be one of the biggest advances in digital photography since the digital camera. When Aperture 1.0 came on to the scene many photographers were excited to see what it was capable of, but it seemed to fall short of what Apple was promising, "The first all-in-one post-production tool for photographers." In short, Apple's Aperture revolutionizes the way a photographer will compare and select the best image, makes all image processing non-destructive and reduces the time spent managing projects/images. The new Universal edition of the program (1.1) has made the necessary advancements and adjustments to make it everything Apple promised with version 1.0. They have lowered the price to under $300.00... Apple is even giving a credit of $200.00 to anyone who bought Aperture 1.0.
