Digital cameras are revolutionizing the way we take pictures. iPhoto will forever change the way we save, organize, share and enjoy them.

iPhoto lets you import your pictures from your digital camera, organize them, edit and improve them, and share them in a number of different ways. And once you see what iPhoto can do with digital pictures, you may never go back to using a film camera again.

From creating a slide show of highlights from a child's soccer season, to putting together a professionally bound book that tells a family's history in words and pictures, iPhoto provides a terrific way to share photos and memories.

Jeff Hussey, Apple product champion for iPhoto will provide a special presentation to CapMac highlighting the many unique features of iPhoto and providing inside tips and tricks to getting the most from this deceptively simple, yet powerful application.

Members and nonmembers alike are invited to attend and start building their strategies for holiday photography.

You can learn more about iPhoto and download it for free at the Apple web site: http://www.apple.com/iphoto/

iPhoto was introduced by Steve Jobs at Macworld in January, 2002, and shown on flat-panel iMacs which debuted there.

"iPhoto has done for digital photography what the microwave did to cooking," says best selling Mac author David Pogue.

Plus, questions and answers, raffle, the nicest Mac friends you could ever hope to meet, and more!

Members and non-members alike are welcome to attend. Don't miss it!
