Recommended free or cheap plugins for Apple Aperture?

There's lots of praise for plugins like Noise Ninja and the ones made by Nik. However, having bought camera gear, a computer and Aperture, the additional cost of plugins feels a bit over the top. So I wonder if there are any free or cheap plugins worth using with Apple Aperture?

What are you looking to do in Aperture that isn't built in? Noise reduction or other things? There are a ton of plug-ins but you really have to have a reason to seek them out.

Apple - Aperture - Resources - Plug-ins, workflows, and other extras

Most of the photo sharing sites have made free plugins to speed uploading.

I am a fan of the $25 PTLens plugin. It kills chromatic aberration and fixes barrel distortion with one click.
