shortcuts, see the

Previous Release Information About Aperture 1.1
The following information is included with Aperture 1.1, a Universal release of Aperture
designed to run natively on both PowerPC-based and Intel-based Macintosh
computers. Aperture 1.1 resolves performance and other issues with RAW file decoding.
Improved RAW File Decoding
Aperture 1.1 provides new RAW decoding algorithms that deliver improved RAW image
quality. With improved default rendering of RAW images from supported cameras,
Aperture 1.1 provides significantly enhanced image quality with improvements in noise
reduction, sharpening, and highlights recovery.
To maintain the image integrity of the existing photos in your Aperture Library,
Aperture 1.1 enables you to retain the original Aperture 1.0 RAW decoding of your
images, selectively migrate images using the new Aperture 1.1 RAW decoding process,
or create duplicate versions of each original RAW image file with Aperture 1.1 RAW
decoding applied.
Strategies for Migrating Images
When you start using Aperture 1.1, all of your existing images continue to use the
original Aperture 1.0 RAW decoding process, in order to preserve their appearance. Any
of these images can be individually migrated using the new Aperture 1.1 RAW decoding
process. You can also use the Migrate Images command in the File menu to migrate
selected images, projects, books, web galleries and journals, Light Table albums,
albums, and Smart Albums.
