?At the end of the day, I don?t think you can currently do better than what Aperture has to offer,? concludes Erik Vlietinck (it-enquirer.com) in his review of Aperture 2.1. ?It has a strong management system, excellent adjustments, a near-perfect RAW engine that gets basic corrections right in 99.90% of the cases as far as I can see, and support for plug-ins.? In awarding the application a five-star (out of five) rating, he applauds its ? vastly more streamlined? interface and its ?dramatic speed boost.? And he points out that the quality of Aperture?s ?built-in RAW adjustments ? even in automatic mode ? is simply stunning.?
