5 out of 5 stars Amazingly Easy to Use Guide and Aperture Overview! Love This Book   December 16, 2007
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is by far, the best Aperture book out there. people are quick to criticize it because it covers a lot of what the shipped booklet covers. This book is way better because it goes into so much detail. For anyone who would bash Apple and Aperture, they must have been living in a cave for the past 10 years. Aperture and this book are by far, the best reason to own and Apple if you are a photographer. Buy it Now and try it out! If you take your time and go thru chapter by chapter, you will be a pro at Aperture. This book is truly a gem and anyone who says otherwise probably didn't read it or is just hating on Apple because their software and machines are truly superior to anything else out there today.

NO! Go to jail, do not pass go!
I bought it, big $26 mistake, same junk as comes with Aperture...Nothing at all new!
Skip this and go beyond. Shame on Peachpit for even passing this off as a learning tool.
SHAME!! ZERO STARS!!



1 out of 5 stars Wait for the next one   December 28, 2005

This book is merely a text copy of the information that ships with the training DVD you get when you buy Aperture. In other words, you already have all this information if you own the program. The only value to this book is as a companion to the DVD or if you don't own the program and want to see what it can do. I'd wait for the next title in the series if you want some real training.


1 out of 5 stars Do NOT buy this book!   December 22, 2005
 33 out of 42 found this review helpful

This slim volume is mostly white space and very large type. None of the information in this little booklet is particularly helpful nor illuminating and it should have all been included with the application anyway.
Buying this dumb little "book" will only reinforce your frustration with Aperture and your distaste for Apple.

Don't do it.
