By the way, you have C1 integrated into your Aperture workflow? Will that fly?

Not really. I collect all my images in the Aperture Library, but if I want to process an image in C1, I export the unprocessed RAW file and start from scratch in C1.



I could re-import the processed final JPG, of course, but it's a manual step that I usually skip. For most of my work the conversion quality of Aperture is good enough (I only do small prints), the only regular use C1 sees here is for the PZ sample images <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' />





You can integrate an external image editor in the Aperture workflow, like Photoshop or Pixelmator. However, in that case Aperture exports an already processed image (with all adjustments applied). But the result is automatically saved back into the library and linked to the original image as a variant, which is quite convenient.



Note that Aperture by default does a lot of rendering work in the background, which can seriously impact perceived performance. If you don't need preview images for all your pictures, you can switch automatic preview rendering off, which saves quite a few CPU cycles. You can still generate previews for those images you want to have available in other iApps manually (that's how I handle it).
