Apple has announced Aperture 3, which offers a number of improvements over Aperture 2, including Faces, Places and Brushes.  Obviously, the big news for photographers is the ability to make local adjustments with the Brushes tool.  Additionally, Aperture 3 allows you to import HD video from your DSLRs and even edit it make your own movie without ever leaving Aperture.  It also includes the ability to easily export video files to Apple’s Final cut software.
