They say that Photos isnt for the Aperture users, but more for the Iphot users. But what exactly do I miss in Photos, compared to Aperture?
Today I use these features:
- Folders, with projects, albums and smart albums
- stars, labels and flags
- keywords
- faces
- referenced media with no preview, to save disc space
- Stacks
- Databased media management, so each version of a photo refere to the master
- Adjusting white balance
- exposure
- enhancing
- sharpening edges
- Colors
- levels and curves
- Crop
- brushes
- batch changing
- slideshows
This was from the top of my head.
what exactly is lost in photos?
Can i download the beta now?
Here’s the survivors in your list:
But note that many of these features behave differently and in some cases are very limited compared to Aperture.
You can’t download a beta of Photos… it’s built-in to Yosemite 10.10.3 and there isn’t a public beta of 10.10.3 available at this time. But if you are a member of Apple’s developer program you can access it.
Thank you so much.
I will keep working in Aperture, but I`m kind of concerned. At some point I have to migrate, and I`m not very keen on swallowing the Adobe pill.
