The Aperture 2.1 Update is recommended for all Aperture 2 users.

Sitter och lattjar lite med den nu. Jag gjorde ett litet fotojobb i helgen och var tvungen installera Photoshop bara för att fixa ett par grejer (spegla och göra lokala justeringar av mättnad/kontrast). Nu täcker Aperture även det.

Demo-pluginen Dodge & Burn funkar fint. Nu ser jag fram emot många nya pluggar som använder sig av Edit-API:t. Nu lyfter nog Aperture rejält tror jag!
