Camera+

Classic App: Camera+ for iPhone

By no means am I here to down­play the Cam­era app that comes with the iPhone 4, it takes great pho­tos and is sim­ple to use. But if you want more from a Cam­era, mak­ing bet­ter use of the poten­tial the iPhone has for a cam­era app then look no fur­ther than Cam­era+.

If I had a list of apps I couldn’t live with­out this would surely be on it.  For only $0.99 it’s a no brainer!

The inter­face is very much like the stan­dard cam­era, you can choose to have a grid on screen as well as adjust expo­sure, white bal­ance and focus with a pinch of your finger.

Fea­tures include;

  • Sta­bi­lizer
  • Timer
  • Con­stant Flash
  • Geo­t­ag­ging
  • Shar­ing (Twit­ter, Face­book and Flickr)
  • Burst Mode

Now, once you’ve taken the photo is when the app kicks into high gear.  The Light­box option gives you a unique oppor­tu­nity to choose which pho­tos you want in your iPhone albums and edit them so they’re per­fect when they get there.

The lat­est update of Cam­era+ brought with it a seem­ingly infi­nite num­ber of adjust­ments and fil­ters you can add to your pho­tos to cap­ture the exact feel­ing you wanted when the pic was taken.  The app even tries to help comen­sate for dif­fer­ent light­ing sce­nar­ios after the fact, how­ever not much to my liking.

One unique item that sets this util­ity apart from it’s stan­dard Apple coun­tepart is its abil­ity to share directly to face­book from inside the app.  Apple’s cam­era is Twit­ter friendly, but not Face­book, so you should enjoy that!

Over­all, this is a sta­ple for any iPhone user, and you can ask any of the 6 mil­lion users and they’ll tell you the same.
