Does anyone use aperture 2?

1 Answer

Answer :

Yes! I love it. Forget LightRoom. I have both. Aperture gives you great customization. It’s retouching tools are great and it’s so easy to make a simple photo look great. Also Organization is a lot like iPhoto. It’s got the same events feature. You can hover over an event to see the photos inside. You should play with it in the Apple Store. I give it 4 Out of 5 Stars.
