Importing Images
Aperture provides tools and workflow options that make it
easy to import your images.
This chapter discusses how you can import images into Aperture from a variety of sources.
An Overview of Importing
When you import from a camera or card reader, Aperture places the images in a
project. If you don’t select an existing project, a new one is created automatically.
As Aperture imports images, it generates a version file and an image thumbnail
corresponding to each digital master file.
You can import digital master images directly from a camera or card reader and from
your hard disk drives.
