- Camera+ ($.99) is my everyday app, replacing the default camera app. Camera+ takes a quick photo with independent focus and aperture placement. It also has many filters that change the appearance of the final photo.
- Pocket Light Meter (free) is the app that does just what is says. It serves as a reasonable light meter to assist with ISO, aperture, and shutter speed settings.
- PS Express (free) is Adobe's entry into the app world. It is nothing like the full blown Photoshop, except it does make image editing pretty simple.
- blueSLR (free) is a geo-tagging and remote control application. The app is free but the camera attaching GPS-dongle is an expensive add-on to a DSLR ($149).
- Picasa Web Mobile (free web app) is the mobile complement to the Picasa desktop software.
- Seadragon is an app that allows mobile viewing of Photosynth images. Unfortunately, the app is no longer available on the app store.
- Nikon Learn and Explore (free) is an app that serves up photography training modules.
- Square (free) is an app and a dongle that lets anyone collect credit card payments.
- Gorillacam (free) is another replacement for the default camera app. This app allows rapid fire photos and can be set up to take a photo anytime the iPhone screen is touched.
- Snapseed ($4.99) is Nik Software's photo editing app with filters that makes full use of the touch interface on the iPhone and iPad. This one is my favorite.
- Snap&Sketch ($.99) takes your photos and converts them into pencil, charcoal, or crayon sketches. I like this one, too.
I hope you give one or more of these a try.
Update 1/20/2012: Snapseed, the mobile photo app that I have crowed about, is now available for the Mac desktop and is coming to Windows in the near future. WOOT!
