Aperture 3 the day after: nitpicks and bugs
I stand by my first impression: Aperture 3 is a great update. That said, now that the dust has settled and I’m over the rush of new technology, there are things appearing that are less than what I anticipated - as well as the inevitable bugs of any new version.
Current 32 bit plugins don’t run [...]
Aperture 3: big things, little things.
It’s been a verrrrry long time coming. But having spent the past hour playing around with the new version of Aperture, all I can say is: thank you. My stubbornness feels completely repaid.
This upgrade adresses everything that was lacking and adds a ton of features, big and small. It’s as though Apple actually read every [...]
Aperture 3 a reality?
From Derrick Story via Twitter: http://twurl.nl/e0v2sk
Not linkbait. He was on record several months ago about being on the inside regarding the app’s developement. Fingers crossed…

the case of aperture and the stratocaster
For the past year – and more so these past months – the debate has been raging around Aperture and Lightroom, mainly from AP2 users who feel abandoned by Apple. The silence surrounding a new version of the application has been deafening, forcing a lot of users into the arms of Adobe for many reasons [...]
The new iMac and Aperture: quite a difference
Just before Christmas I received a new 27 in quad-core i7 iMac loaded with 8gb of ram. For those wondering about the performance gains in Aperture all I can say is: night and day. Working in Aperture 2.1.4 after the SL upgrade had become an exercise in frustration, making my work tedious and my temper… [...]
Aperture 3: others chiming in
From The Apple Blog:
But I wonder at what point those of us using Aperture have begun suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, and are defending our captors rather than breaking free for greener pastures.

10.6.2: Aperture printing is back baby!
Just installed 10.6.2 and immediately did a print test. Results?
1) We can now turn Black Point Compensation back on and use paper profiles. Goodbye purple!
2) Aperture sends the right tray info to my R2880 so no more Preview workaround!!!
Number 2 had me worried: it didn’t work the first time I tried it, giving me the [...]
LR3 beta – a followup
Alright. I know it’s quick but I’ve just spent the past hour playing with the new LR3 beta and while all the core advantages from LR2 remain, it’s still no fun to work with. The interface is just as messy as before and most of the improvements – at least as far as I can [...]
of snow leopard, aperture and epson
Allright, so after two weeks I’m still on Snow Leopard and have decided to live with the very annoying printing bug. In fact as of this morning I’m on 10.6.1 which unfortunately - after a few more tests – doesn’t solve anything. Why not revert to Leopard? Well frankly, the rest of the system feels [...]
snow leopard and aperture – a quick glance UPDATED
UPDATE:
I’m having serious printing problems with my Epson R2880: when trying to print from Aperture (2.1.4) any paper I choose is apparently stuck at roll paper, giving a wrong source error when it reaches the printer. I now have to hit preview, select the correct page setup and profile and print from there. So far [...]
Aperture 3 – Wishes. Expectations. Anticipation.
Quick Recap
When Apple unveiled Aperture in 2005, the photography landscape was in dire need of consolidation: the digital workflow was a hodge podge of various solutions combining RAW converters, editing software and asset management applications. Working with RAW files was unwieldy, involving conversions and file multiplication if you needed different versions of the same picture. [...]
aperture 3 coming?
Ok, first off: I know nothing. This is pure speculation. But yesterday Apple - finally – unveiled major updates to its pro apps with new versions of Final Cut Studio and Logic Studio, each including new versions of every app in the suite (well, aside from the long forgotten DVD Studio Pro which lingers at version [...]
