Product Description
Apple's Aperture software is a post-production tool designed to allow digital photographers to import, manage and enhance photographs in one simple, integrated workflow. Aperture 2, the recently updated version of the software, includes more than 100 new features for photo management and image processing, and this much-needed guide takes you through the tools and knowledge necessary to get up-and-running fast.

The book includes clear explanations and step-by-step guidance on how to import, sort and navigate thousands of raw files like a pro; how to view and compare images to make selections quickly; how to turn good photos into beautiful images with adjustment tools; and how to export, showcase and print your best work with high quality results. This title is fully updated for Aperture 2, the major update to Apple's powerful photo management and manipulation software. Learn time saving techniques and streamline your digital photography workflow in Aperture. Discover the best way to import, organize and enhance your images for ease of management and high quality results.

Since digital photography became the norm I have used most of the software packages available. Each of these has had a steep learning curve and necessitated buying the supportive books or manuals.
The vast majority of these have left me more confused than I was before.
Apple Aperture 2; A workflow guide is completely different. In language that even I can understand the text carries you through the advantages of RAW files and a sequence of actions in addressing them that makes complete sense.
I cannot recommend this work highly enough.

Format:Paperback
Having recently begun using Aperture and Apple Macs I was delighted to find this handy book which is a must for those wishing to learn more about the powerful tools within Aperture.
The text is easy to follow and provides all the information a new or indeed experienced photography will need when using Aperture. I would have given the book a top rating but as some of the illustrations don't get across what is being shown then it gets a 4 star.
Still a bargain for those interested in using and understanding Aperture though.
I would certainly recommend it.
