Quote: Import images in a
flash. Manage them like a pro.
Pop a memory card filled with new images into
your card reader and Aperture gets right to work,
instantly displaying thumbnails and offering
intelligent ways to add copyright, captions,
keywords and other metadata as you import them.
You can also import images from hard drives,
optical media, even iPhoto.
Make selects quickly and easily.
Youíve added hundreds of new photos to your
Aperture library. Now you need to review them all
and pick the very best ó your selects. Aperture
lets you edit photo shoots using tools such as
Quick Preview mode for rapid-fire image review and
Compare mode for viewing two or more images side
by side. With Aperture, you can even zoom and pan
multiple images at once for tight comparisons
before making a pick.
Turn your good photos into beautiful
images.
With your favourite shots selected, itís now
time to use Apertureís adjustment tools to make
your best photos look even better. Aperture takes
you way beyond the basics of straightening,
cropping and improving exposure. Use the new
Vibrancy and Definition tools to create beautiful
photos with enhanced detail and saturation. Or
darken the corners of your image with the Vignette
tool. Copying adjustments from one image to
another is simple using the Lift and Stamp tool.
And since all adjustments are nondestructive, you
donít have to worry about damaging your original
master images. Aperture never touches them.
Flexible export options.
With every photo looking picture perfect, itís
time to present your best work to others. Use one
of the export plug-ins in Aperture to send your
photos to Flickr ó or SmugMug, Gallery, Zenfolio
or Picasa. Send them to colleagues via Mail.
Include them in iLife or iWork documents. Or make
them ìto goî, syncing them to iPod or Apple
TV.
Publish online.
Aperture offers fully integrated .Mac Web Gallery
support, so you can publish a portfolio using your
.Mac account in minutes. You can even use your
password-protected Web Gallery to deliver photos,
letting others download JPEG or original RAW files
directly from your site.
Your book. To order.
Aperture provides all the tools you need to
create custom-designed books in small, medium and
large formats. You can place, resize, rotate, and
mask photos, so your book looks exactly the way
you want. For a professional touch, include a
full-bleed, wraparound dust jacket on your next
hardcover book. Then place your order without
leaving Aperture.
Printing prowess.
The latest printers from Canon and Epson support
16-bit printing. And so does Aperture, letting you
produce high-quality prints with smoother
gradients and better colour fidelity. The new
Print dialog also features a print sharpening
slider for fine-tuning sharpness without wasting
paper. Ready for pro-quality prints? You can order
prints ó up to 20 by 30 inches ó directly from
Aperture. |
