This has become my primary go-to book among my four digital photography books I'm reading. It just seems to have the information I needed each time I went to it.

Moved to gave-up 12 January 2021 as Aperture has been discontinued and won't even run on my computer after next OS upgrade (I am 2 behind).

A very useful intro to aperture. The screenshots are too small which makes it harder than it should be to follow some explanations.

Awesome book, and really helped me learn Aperture.
