iLife '09 gets the Software Update treatment

Apple just released some updates for iLife '09 via Software Update. In a very un-Apple fashion, the release notes are actually sort of descriptive!

Here's the breakdown:

iLife Support -- this is for iLife '09, iWork '09 and Aperture 2 users and it addresses some memory leaks, custom folder issues with Media Browser and maintaining the correct image date when importing from iPhoto to Aperture.
iDVD gets an update to fix an issue where iDVD is unable to add a title/comment to an image. Recommended for all iDVD 7 users.
iMovie now supports 720p AVCHD Lite cameras and camcorders and some other issues.
iPhoto -- some fixes to publishing to MobileMe, Flickr and Facebook, slideshow playback and location GPS in emailed and exported JPEGs See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3532
Digital Camera RAW update -- RAW support for iPhoto '08, iPhoto '09 and Aperture 2 for various Canon, Nikon and Olympus cameras.

This all looks like good stuff. I'm off to install/restart. Head to Software Update on your computer or hit up Apple Downloads to get the individual installers.

My biggest issue with iMovie (transition buggyness and changing pictures mid transition) still is not fixed.

The new Panasonic ZS3/TZ7 camera is the first for this 720p format, and up until today you had to buy a separate $30 plugin to import, play and edit "Lite" in any Mac software. Good job, Apple.

Hidden iPhoto update - you can now upload facebook albums with more than 60 photos. Old limi was based on facebook's previous limit. I assume the new limit is 200 per facebook.

I'd still like an option to do a one time upload to facebook (no sync). Right now to do that you have the ambiguous situation of "if I delete this album in iPhoto, will it delete it form facebook?" Bonus points for allowing uploads to groups.

Does anyone else wonder if Apple snuck some iPhone Video support into this release? Maybe the iPhone will record in 720p AVCHD lite??? Just sayin...

Still no RAW support for Panasonic Lumix LX-3 or DMC-FK18Z.

These cameras are VERY popular and have been on the markey for YEARS!!
What's up Apple? You ONLY support the EXPENSIVE camera that support RAW?

I guess I will have to stick with Adobe Lightroom!

That's a good idea! Lightroom 2 is wonderful!

REALLY excited to see that iMovie now has support for AVCHD Lite 720p native support. The new Panasonic ZS3/TZ7 camera is the first for this 720p format, and up until today you had to buy a separate $30 plugin to import, play and edit "Lite" in any Mac software. Good job, Apple.

This is good news... However...

If they could just fix iPhoto and Aperture so that sharing libraries between multiple users on the same Mac didn't take a PhD, UNIX guru, and/or an external drive, we would be all set...
