Just comparing apples and apples by making similar choices in A3. Also, if you quote my comment in full, you will see that I am specifically mentioning the debeyer and not the NR.


Gotcha. I'm off to do some reading on de-bayering.

The download however, is slow as balls. 20KB/sec? C'mon Apple...

edit: restarted the download, using DownThemAll for Firefox, now getting 2.4MB/sec. Phew.

I can't believe the academic discount is only $20!!! What a rip I got Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium for only $140 more than this price!

How much is Aperture 3 vs CS4?

This is what I have been waiting for. Sometimes my work doesn't require 21MP but 6MP.keeda wrote:

I'll be keen to see how Aperture compares to C1 Pro 5, LR (2 and 3) and DPP for detail.

Wish they'd port Aperture to Windows, after all it's much bigger market and I'm sure they'd sell a lot more copies and Mr Jobs certainly loves the money.

As far as I can tell from the Apple site the academic discounted price for Aperture 3 is $179. I paid $330 for CS4 Design premium, so I guess its actually $151 more. For comparison when I bought the Academic version of Lightroom 2 I'm pretty sure it was somewhere between $85 and $99.

Of course that's off the Apple site. The actual price varies at individual college bookstores and education resellers. I bought Aperture 2 a year ago in the UH Bookstore for $99, a lot cheaper than the AppleStore education discount.

So CS4 Design Premium is only not-quite-but-nearly double the price, whatta rip....

Yipppppeeeee for LX3 RAW support, will be trying to download the trial tonight!

The Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.0 increases iPhoto ’09 and Aperture 3's support for Raw image files for a number of additional cameras, including the Canon PowerShot S90 and the Canon's sRAW and mRAW. I don't give rat's ass about sRAW and mRAW but there have been a lot of winning about a lack of Apple support for those format so yay.

But the gotcha is Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.0 doesn't work with Aperture 2...

Great news for some and I'll be anxiously awaiting real use feedback, until I can afford an Intel Mac upgrade from my quad core G5.

I guess I can try it out on my daughter's Intel Macbook Pro or my wife's Intel iMac. What's wrong with that picture.

Design Premium is a suite of programs that contains a number of products including Photoshop CS4, Indesign, etc. The retail price is $1,800. Student price is $399. That is the sort of discount one hopes for from Apple.

So Apple should sell Aperture to students for $44? Where do I sign up?

Doesn't seem unreasonable. For the $20 discount you get with their academic price you lose the ability to qualify for upgrade pricing in the future, its ridiculous. If you can never upgrade it should be at least 1/2 price!

The reason the educational version is only slightly cheaper is because it IS upgradable. Version 1 was $100 and was not upgradable. Version 2 is $180 but it is, check the Aperture 3 upgrade requirements on the Apple store.
I don't know why everybody is complaining, it's one of the cheapest photography programs out there, heck there are plugins for it that cost $300.

And if you pay attention to all the small details it one heck of an upgrade. If you just see that it has faces and decide to call it not a pro app then you're not looking very hard.
