As a replacement for PS, LR is probably better. LR was designed to keep everyone from jumping ship from Photoshop to Aperture. Aperture was designed to organize and process images - as well as mak it super easy to use them for things photogs do. I think to say that they were designe for slightly different reasons. If saving adjusments to apply in mass is your goal - it works.īut I think Aperture offers a lot more that has real value (even beyond just album design). I guess it gets ponta for presets, but to discount lift and stamp is disingenuous. I think that Aperture and LR are about even on what the basic adjusments can do. I still believe Aperture is a better tool for Jim and all photographers. I haven't seen Nate's vid yet, but it does have fully customizable keyboard shortcuts. I didn't say it was a better image editor. I acknowledge that LR has some image processing tools that are far more powerful. In that, I see that we have more flexibility and power than Aperture. As I've mentioned, I look at LR as my editing application.
It's a nice add-on, but it's just that: an add on. The only thing I see that I covet is the album design. We can do the smart albums in LR, the Keywords, any of that (just didn't know that was part of the deal). For you to do any of the eye-brightening, cloud darkening, fun stuff like that you'd have to go out to Photoshop. I hope Nathan posts a similar video to what you did, because that's what he (photographer's edit) specializes in: basic, clean, edits. Applied effects, rotated, cropped, went past any just basic color edits. I'm assuming when you really edit, you're going to look closer?

I'd also point out that you didn't look at more than 2-3 images full size, where I went in and looked for focus issues on most (and there were several you kept that had motion blur). I could have done that in about 2 minutes, too. You just did a basic edit down, color correct, and 3-4 black/whites. I do believe you have (both) found the right tool to fit your individual style(s).Īfter watching though, I don't really see we have apples to apples. Style is what truly characterizes an artist, in any craft, regardless of equipment, academia, or skill. tools are tools - they aren't going to make you a better craftsman. I've used inDesign for years and along with being a completely different and expensive tool I had to purchase and learn along side photoshop, I can't edit my images like that! Sure I can "round trip" them but that is sooooo slow.
Then when he started editing his images right inside his album I almost cried.
Kevin you are maybe better at showing off the capabilities of your tool of choice - a better guitar player than Jason - but when Jason tagged his photos with keywords and automatically uploaded to Pictage right from inside Aperture, I thought to myself, "cool".
You and Jason have both done an excellent job of showing the strengths of each program. Light Room or Aperture - neither makes you a better photo editor.

If you were a guitar player I would say, "Wow, you sure know how to play that thing!"īut if I thought that I'm going to be that good at playing if I bought that same guitar, I would be very quickly disappointed.įord or Chevy - neither makes you a better driver.įender or Gibson - neither makes you a better guitarist.Ĭanon or Nikon - neither makes you a better photographer.
