 Pay attention to your environment. Make sure your camera gear is clean and in good
working order both before and during the shoot. Dirty lenses, image sensor dust,
and poor performance of the camera body and off-camera flash due to low battery
power can negatively affect the quality of images.
 Get as close to your subject as safety allows. The closer you are to your subject, the
more detail you will capture in your image.
Working in Full Screen Mode
Is there a fast way to switch between Full Screen mode and the Browser workspace?
Press F to turn Full Screen mode on or off. Aperture also provides a useful combination
of Full Screen mode and the standard workspace layout in the Maximize Viewer
workspace layout. Choose Window > Layouts > Maximize Viewer to see this workspace.
Is there a way to hide the filmstrip when I’m working in Full Screen mode?
You can set the filmstrip to appear when the pointer is positioned over its location and
disappear when the pointer is moved away. To do so, choose Auto from the Viewer Mode
pop-up menu in the bottom-left corner of the filmstrip. You can also resize the filmstrip or
drag it to a new position. You can have the filmstrip appear without overlapping the
onscreen image by choosing Avoid from the Viewer Mode pop-up menu.
How do I use Full Screen mode to do a presentation?
Full Screen mode is designed to give you an enlarged view and easy working access to
your images. To present images to clients, however, it’s best to use the slideshow
feature, which provides many advanced options for displaying images. You can control
the display of images, choose how one image transitions to the next, how many
images appear on the screen at a time, and even play music with your slideshow.
Working with Webpages and Books
If I change themes after working on a web gallery, web journal, or book, will I lose
my previous work?
If you add images or text to a web gallery or web journal and then change themes,
Aperture preserves your layout of images and text, fitting them into the new theme.
With books, however, it’s best to choose your theme carefully before entering text.
It’s possible to lose text when you change themes. If you must change book themes,
make sure to copy the text you’ve entered into another document so that you have a
backup copy.
