Have you noticed that Adobe Lightroom and Extensis Portfolio both have a “Folder Synchronization” and apreture doesn’t?

Here is what is still missing from Aperture 2.0 that Extensis Portfolio has had for years:
Improved AutoSync Performance
At the core of Portfolio Server is AutoSync, the engine that keeps assets and data synchronized.
FolderSync Presets
FolderSync lets you decide how you want it to work: Set a sync schedule or choose to autosync instead, and opt to “ignore” certain items when synchronizing, if desired.

AutoSync Cataloging Presets
Enables auto-cataloging and keyword/metadata assignment simply by dropping the asset into a redefined folder.

AutoSync Path Translation: For faster cataloging and imaging tasks as well as decreased network bandwidth requirements.

AutoSync
Portfolio Server automatically synchronizes catalogs with any server file that’s been added, updated or removed. This offloads and automates all scanning and image processing from the desktop to the server.

If you also feel that this feature would be valuable for your own business, please make your voice heard at:

You are aware, aren’t you, that Aperture 2 has a five point levels adjustment (quarter tones)? There’s a checkbox for in in the levels setting. Why on earth would you need more precision than that?

A levels setting has the advantage over a curves setting in that you can quickly make adjustments while the software takes care of the smooth blending of the curve segment.

If you don’t want a smoothly blended curve, for instance to do posterizations or other psychedelic effects, you need Photoshop. A quarter tone levels does any _realistic_ adjustment you need, with less fiddling around.

i haven’t tried Aperture [doubt it would run very well on my machine]- but recently started using Lightroom for my own work after having to learn it when assisting. I’ve really grown to prefer Lightroom over the Bridge/ACR/Photoshop combo. i can get the look i’m after so much more quickly with Lightroom instead of having to use adjustment layers etc in PS. i too am a heavy curves user…

There’s also Bibble (http://bibblelabs.com/). Workflow isn’t intuitive immediately but when you get into it it’s surprisingly effective. Powerful image correction options and has the advantage of some of coming in Windows/OSX/Linux flavours with a pro licence covering all three.

I tried Lightroom last night based on everyones recommendations. It’s not quite as clean a workflow as Aperture, but I LOVE having curves. Ill have my thoughts on Lightroom soon. Looks like we have a battle going.

I used Lightroom (pc) for a full weeding story. It really disappointed me regarding visualization and colors profile output.
Now I’m to buy the new Macbook Pro and try Aperture (at the momente I have and light iBook G4).

What I’m looking for is a stable, easy and trusted system. I just want my jpg and prints outputs to be as similar as it possible to what I see on screen.

Who is best for that?

Lightroom all the way imho. You have the power of curves, everything that aperture offers, and then some. Granted, aperture may be quicker to load large databases, but lightroom is more robust, and things such as straightening and vignetting are no-brainers in lightroom.

You should give the competition a try, itll probably win your heart.
