I guess it had to come eventually.
I noticed when I got into this almost two months ago, all of the books and learning materials for Aperture seemed to be a bit dated. I wasn't real sure why the version info seemed to relate, but it just seemed that the software had been hanging out there. Not to mention, I had been storing all of my pictures in iPhoto ever since I bought my first MacBook Pro as a travel companion on the motorcycle, and sticking to the collections in iPhoto/Aperture made a lot of sense to me.
As I start getting into learning digital photography with the D5300, I find myself quickly wanting to spend time both with learning and perfecting the camera side of things ... aka getting the best shot on the camera that I can ... but also getting a grasp for the software side of things and what many call post-processing of developing their digital images. I have access to both Aperture and LightRoom, but started down the path with Aperture because I have it everywhere. With this announcement, and the track record Apple has with FCP (I had worked with FCP back in the 2001/2002 timeframe and ended up going with Premiere instead), my expectation is the new Photos app will be a beefed up iPhotos that falls short of what Aperture does today.
With that expectation ... anyone know any good LightRoom training?
