Apple Announces iPhoto ’09
Makes it Easy to Organize and Manage Photos
Apple’s newest software suite, iLife ’09, was introduced this morning during the keynote speech at the Macworld Conference and Expo in San Francisco, and features iPhoto ’09, an easy-to-use image-editing suite with some great new features.
Some of the new features include:
Faces – a new feature that allows you to organize your photos based on face recognition. This new feature uses face detection to identify faces of people in your photos to match faces.
Places – lets you geotag your photos by using data from GPS-enabled cameras or the camera on iPhone to categorize photos by location.
Themed Slideshows – six themed choices that let you create slideshows in seconds. Themes include Classic, Shatter, Snapshots, Scrapbook, Ken Burns, and Sliding Panels. Every slideshow uses face detection to position photos correctly and keep the faces onscreen.
Online Sharing – allows you to share and publish your photos on Facebook and Flickr through the click of a button in the iPhoto software.
Enhanced Photo Editing – features a new Saturation slider to improve colors, a Definition slider for clarity and more detail, the Retouch brush adds a Detect Edges feature that prevents blurring of detail when you remove spots or blemishes over solid edges, and an Auto Red-Eye tool.
