ABSTRACT

All of Aperture's Adjustment tools can be found on the Adjustments Inspector or the Adjustments pane of the Inspector HUD. This chapter explores how each of them works and shows how digital photographer can use them to fix commonly occurring problems and to produce black and white and tinted monochrome versions. It describes the Adjustments Inspector digital photographer can assume that things will work exactly the same way using the Adjustments pane of the Inspector HUD and vice versa. Aperture's tools for analyzing and editing images can be found on the Adjustments Inspector. Very few images require the array of adjustments and creative tools available in an image editing application like Photoshop. Some images are fine just the way they are and require little or no adjustment beyond what the Raw encoder produces from the data as the image was shot.
