Aperture books?

[rouxeny]

I am eagerly awaiting my Mac Pro with Aperture preinstalled. I have fiddled around with Aperture a bit via the free month long trial, but I can't say that I have any real idea how to use it. I have essentially no PhotoShop experience either.

What's the best way to "learn" Aperture? I know there are a few online posts which I have been reviewing, but I would really like to find a good how-to book.

Any suggestions?

I used this MacPro Video and found it very good, not only do they tell you how to do something, but you get to see it too.

Aperture book

If you're gonna learn from a book go with the Apple Pro Training Series.

Aperture 1.5 by Orlando Luna and Ben Long (isbn 0-321-49662-0)

The book contains a DVD that includes learning projects that you can use in Aperture. Get through the book and it'll prepare you to take the level one Apple Pro certification test.
