[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1233934, member: 59143"] hah..I was writing a short bit but then my interest suddenly waned for some reason. Could be the fact that I was poaching a bunch of salmon and then at the last minute screwed up a different part of dinner, causing me to do something rather rash.. chucked the whole thing in a very immature manner. (I know.. ME? Immature? stretch there eh) Anyway... You'll get no lambasting from me. You're right that Aperture 3 is an absolute steal at its online/App Store price. BUT... and you've already asked this, so the question needs to be answered: Is the OP finding it really necessary to go beyond what iPhoto is capable of at this point, and why? I can give you my own personal reasons for loathing iPhoto, but those reasons may not mean much to someone who doesn't compile thousands upon thousands of RAW images. And the next question is, to fear7950: Why do you care about shooting RAW and what are you doing with tiff files? So why exactly is it fear, that you are looking at something like Aperture? What is iPhoto not doing for you? As far as LR vs. Aperture goes, I of course can give good reasons for why I use and prefer the former, but only if fear asks me. I have no agenda and won't push my preferences since he didn't ask about it. I will say however, that I paid $99 for LR, and it's getting to be that one can find it at this price point a LOT, if one looks. Adobe has always had promo codes to pay this price over the years.. but lately I think they've been making those codes a lot more accessible in order to compete with Apple's pricing for Aperture.
