Aperture 3.0

Having a quick trial on the Aperture 3.0, which claimed to have 200 new features.

It took me quite some trouble and time to upgrade my Aperture library: you need to have a lot of free HDD space on your Mac (approx. 1.5x of the file size of library); and the upgrade took overnight.

My initial feeling is:
- Most important news for Pentax user: Aperture finally get the Pentax EXIF right, and correctly display the lenses and meter mode information.
- Aperture 3.0 is faster than previous versions
- As expected, the face function is quite slow
- Finally, Aperture has the 'curve' function

I think the Aperture is a good program, and the 3.0 is getting better. Good for Apple.
