Note: Available at MacMall For just $179.99 full or $89.99 upgrade. 

Apple has finally released an upgrade for the already powerful Aperture 2. Today Apple announced Aperture 3.

Apple say their are over 200 new feutures on the new version. 

Some of this new features are:

• Backup on Import 
  Automatically back up your master images to a second drive during import, freeing you from the need to perform a separate, manual backup.
• Color Labels
  Apply up to eight different color-coded labels to images to organize and group them. Add a custom name for each color label in Aperture preferences. Simple keyboard shortcuts allow you to apply labels using the keyboard.
• Fast Library Switching
  Close one Aperture library and open another on the fly by selecting the desired library from the Switch to Library submenu — no need to quit and restart Aperture.
• Focus Points
  Hover over the Focus Points button in the Camera Info pane to see the focus points used by your camera to auto focus the image. You can also click the button to turn the display of focus points on or off.
• Nondestructive Brushes 
  Make nondestructive image enhancements to specific areas of any photo using new adjustment brushes. Use brush strokes to modify — brush in or brush away — most of the standard image adjustments available in the Adjustments inspector. You can control the size, softness, and strength of each brush with intuitive sliders.
• Create Multiple Instances of Adjustments
  Apply multiple adjustments of a single type to different parts of an image by creating multiple adjustment bricks for each adjustment. For example, set one Levels adjustment to create the perfect sky. Then add another Levels adjustment brick to selectively perfect skin tones. To add a new instance of an adjustment, choose the Add New option from the Action pop-up menu in each adjustment brick.
• Support for GPS Track Logs
  In Aperture, you can easily assign locations to photos by importing the track log from a GPS receiver. Then simply drag photos onto the track to have Aperture sync the photos to the location data in the track log. You can also reset the time zone of the track in Aperture.
