If you used iPhoto when it first came out, you'll remember the way
it slowed to a crawl once you loaded it with about 2,000 photos.
Compare that to this year's model: iPhoto 6 can handle as many as
250,000 images and still have the power to run a host of suped-up
features. Its new software engine lets you make changes with a drag
& drop editing tool, find photos with a robust search feature,
and manipulate images without affecting the originals in your
master library. You can also:
View and work on full-screen images
Make quick edits with one click
Work with RAW images
Create cool new calendars, greeting cards and books
Post photos online with the new iWeb application
Use a method of sharing called "Photocasting"
Apple makes it all sound so easy: just drag this, click that and
you're done. But, as intuitive as these features are, you can still
get lost, especially if you're new to iPhoto. Not to worry. "iPhoto
6: The Missing Manual" gives you plenty of undocumented tips &
tricks for taking advantage of the new version and every little
feature packed into it.
It's the top-selling iPhoto book for good reason. With wit and
objectivity, David Pogue and Derrick Story start you out with a
crash course on digital photography, complete with tutorials on
buying a camera, composing brilliant photos in various situations
(sports, portraits, nighttime shots, even kid photography), and
making digital movies. From there, you'll dive into every detail of
iPhoto, from camera-meets-Mac basics to storing, searching,
editing, and creating books, calendars and greeting cards. You'll
learn to build a personal web site built with iWeb, and discover
"Photocasting"-the newservice that allows. Mac subscribers to
publish photo albums online so that others can use the photos, even
if they work on PCs.
With iPhoto 6, you could add 1000 photos a month for the next 20
years and not fill it. With "iPhoto 6: The Missing Manual," you can
get going in no time.
