Aperture 3 introduces new tools to refine your photos including Brushes for painting image adjustments onto parts of your photo, and Adjustment Presets for applying professional photo effects with just one click. Stunning new slideshows let you share your work by weaving together photos, audio, text and HD video. Faces uses face detection and recognition to find and organize your photos by the people in them.
You can view faces across your entire photo library or view just the faces that appear in selected projects. In a new view that speeds up the organization process, Aperture 3 displays faces that have been detected but haven't yet been named.
Places lets you explore your photos based on where they were taken, and like in iPhoto, Places automatically reverse geocodes GPS data into user-friendly locations. The new Brushes feature allows you to add professional touches to your photos by simply painting effects onto the image. Aperture 3 includes 15 Quick Brushes that perform the most popular tasks like Dodge, Burn, Polarize and Blur, without the complexity of layers or masks.
Brushes can automatically detect edges in your images to let you apply or remove effects exactly where you want them. Aperture 3 includes dozens of Adjustment Presets that apply a specific style or look to the entire image with just a click. You can create your own custom presets or explore the techniques of other photographers by importing theirs. Taking a dark outdoor photo with sunset sky, I could bring out grass and building detail by cranking up Lightroom's shadows adjustment, but Aperture just produced a washed-out result.
In straight exposure adjustment, Lightroom gave me more headroom - four stops instead of Aperture's two, so I could really crank up a highly underexposed photo. Aperture 3. I'll usually try a photo app's auto corrector tool before tweaking the settings to get some ideas for what to do.
And even though Lightroom's equivalent tool is limited to "tone," it did a far better job making most pictures look better than Aperture's more all-encompassing Auto Enhance.
The highlights adjustment was also updated for Aperture 3. Instead of being able to increase the highlight intensity, you can only reduce it. Lightroom lets you do either, and is consistent with how sliders work. For photos containing human faces, the program switches the white balance to Skin Tone, which did give people a more lifelike, warm, rosy look. And if that wasn't enough, a "warmth" slider let me push this up even further. But the limitation of white balance options to just two, Skin Tone and Neutral Grey, along with auto and a choice for specifying colour temperature in degrees K, is less accommodating than Lightroom's choices of six light source types plus using the camera's setting.
Oddly, the Effects dropdown did offer light source-based white balance options, even with a helpful preview box. Both apps let you brush white balance settings onto specific areas of a photo, which helps with shots containing multiple light sources. One type of correction completely missing from Aperture is lens geometry correction aside from what the app may do at the raw conversion stage.
If you want to fix distorted perspective introduced by wide or long lenses, you'll have to turn to Lightroom, which can automatically correct geometry based on the detected lens and focal length, or ACDSee Pro, which also offers geometry corrections. Aperture does, however offer a Devignette adjustment, to fix darkened corners, though this tool doesn't know about your lens and camera characteristics.
Aperture's sharing and output options are robust, including strong slideshow, online, printing and photo book choices. You can also email directly from any photo view. For slideshows, once you choose from 14 well-designed templates including a geo-tag-enabled travel theme , you can output to a standard video file.
Uniquely, you can even time how long each image in the slideshow will display. You can then add canned music from Apple or your own MP3s. The precise slide timing means you can match the pictures to the music, give more important shots longer viewing time, or time your slideshow for a presentation.
Aperture offers a lot of printing flexibility, as well: You can save custom layouts, resize boxes and borders by dragging, exposure compensate for printers, and add watermarks.
You can choose any number of images to appear on a page, and specify row and column spacing. Lightroom, though, offers just as much control over printing. The app also offers a wide selection of soft proofing profiles, letting you see how output will turn out without actually having to print. But most people these days want to get their photos online.
