Some iPhoneographers are reporting problems with this update. Read on for more information and a couple of possible fixes. >>>

Wrigley Field pano created with AutoStitch

.

There are several panorama apps available in the App Store. My favorite is AutoStitch Panorama by Cloudburst Research. It’s been on sale for a few days, but right now, it’s only 99¢ — that’s $2.00 off the normal price of $2.99.

Right now, there are several cool photo apps on sale in the App Store. This is probably the largest bunch of major apps on sale at the same time that I’ve ever seen.

This is an excellent chance to fill in gaps in your iPhone’s Camera Bag. We’ve listed the end dates of the sales if we have them. Others, if the dates aren’t there, they probably won’t be on sale for long — possibly only hours. Some of the prices on these apps are about as low as you’ll see — especially FX Photo Studio and AutoStitch Panorama, so if you’ve been thinking about these, grab them now before prices go back up.

Open up your iTunes, bust out the Visa card and click past the jump to check out the great sales. >>>

Countdown t-minus five days to Black Friday. There are several major apps that are on sale this weekend in the App Store. AutoStitch Panorama, Color Splash, Live FX, and Perfect Photo are all on sale for a dollar off each. Some of the price reductions aren’t great, but collectively here’s the chance to save a couple of bucks if you’ve had your eye on any of these apps. I think all of these sale apps are recommended ones from good developers.

These sales are for a limited time only and could go at any time, so grab them now. Pricing and App Store links are after the jump. >>>

AutoStitch Panorama 3.1 from Cloudburst Research has just hit the App Store. The improvements include optimizations for the iPod Touch 4th Gen,  a new retina display-ready icon, bug fixes and a very nice feature I’ve been wanting for a while — background support for iOS 4.

In my opinion, AutoStitch Panorama is the best pano app available. It can be used to create much more than just panoramas. You can use it to create interesting ghost effects and “bend” effects as well. This update makes it much nicer to use in iOS 4.

Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio

The cockpit of the Boeing 707. The Boeing 707. For me, there are three that matter — John Travolta’s personal 707 painted in classic Qantas livery, the original Dash-80 prototype that’s in the Smithsonian, and this one. But, this is the one. This is the aircraft that landed at Dallas Love Field that autumn morning. This is the aircraft that carried the President’s body back to Washington, DC. LBJ was sworn in as President in this aircraft — in an aisle just behind the wing. I got chills when I stood in the spot and faced forward.

Living near Dallas and appreciating its past, you can’t help but feel a connection and a sense of history where JFK is concerned.

You Gotta See This!
Version 1.0
Price: $1.99

Bottom Line: An easy, fun app that replicates the panoramic collage style of photography. A few frustrating bugs in the initial release drop it down a star.

You Gotta See This is a new panography or panoramic collage from Boinx Software. Panography is different than panorama in that images are very visibly tiled to create a collage. David Hockney is an artist who uses this style of photography in his works. You Gotta See This! is an easy, fun app that replicates this style of photography.

Field of Dreams, Iowa. Pano by AutoStitch 3.0

.

Greetings from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where we are for a few more days on a working vacation. If your perceptions of Brew City are based solely on old reruns of “Laverne & Shirley” and “That 70′s Show”, you are missing out on a truly great (and photogenic) city.

It’s going to be a big week in iPhoneLand. The new iPhone OS, iOS 4, hits today. The iPhone 4 streets later this week. In lieu of a full-blown post this morning, here are a few random musings….

While the next update is going through the App Store approval process, Panoramatic 360 by floaty is on sale for $0.99 USD — that’s a savings of $2.

While apps like AutoStitch Panorama and Pano get most of the attention when it comes to pano apps, Panoramatic 360 is at least worth a look. While not as fast as either AutoStitch or Pano, it has features that both apps lack.
