Hey guys.
I'm looking for opinions on AP3. I have it, but on my 4gig 2.53Ghz MacBook Pro, it seems to be a bit laggy. While Lightroom isn't any sort of speed demon, I found the performance workable. Aperture 3, I've gotten a bit frustrated as I wait a couple of seconds for any given image.
I like AP3 for its integration into apple apps, like itunes (makes it easy to upload my photos to my iphone), but I like LR's interface, even tough it may be modal.
Also some of the automatic adjustments seem to only bump up the exposure to 1.0, where as Lightroom's auto adjustment touches, black point, brightness/contrast/expsoure. I'm finding the tonal adjustments a bit more pleasing with the LR's auto adjust.
I like using the auto adjustment to get me started on a given image.
Sounds like I'm ranting against Aperture and lusting after LightRoom, and that may be the case, but I do like AP3, just that I've been getting a bit frustrated by it.
Thoughts/opinions?
Mike
