Big day for photographers today. The news at todays' Apple Photokina event was, as expected, the release of
Aperture 1.5. Whether Adobe timed their
Lightroom announcement to coincide or Apple set the event to coincide with the Lightroom announcement is anybody's guess. Regardless, the new Aperture will be available to current users as a downloadable upgrade sometime this week, and should hit the shelves almost immediately as well. the major new features are:
- Loupe with adjustible controls
- Flexible Library locations with support for any disk location, attached RAID, and even indexed removable media
- Metadata presets
- Advanced color controls
- Improved sharpening algorithms
- iWork '06 and iLife '06 integration

I like Aperture but there isn't much meat in this upgrade...

I'd have bought it if I didn't think I was getting ripped off on the US/UK pricing. Even Apple admits it would be cheaper for me to buy it in the US when I next visit!
