iPhone App Review: Straighten Image, by Glyn Evans

Glyn Evans recently reviewed the app Straighten Image by appingo on his blog iPhoneography.com.

I was amazed at just how quick, easy and simple this app was to use, but the most interesting thing, and more importantly omitted from the AppStore description, is the save photos are upscaled, and so on my iPhone 3G, were saved at full-res.  Now I’m not sure if this app saves at full-res on the iPhone 3GS, so if anyone has an iPhone 3GS and this, then maybe they could comment on the resolution.

Review: PhotoTropedelic by Glyn Evans

PhotoTropedelic
Version 1.0

Bottom Line: A  good app for a groovy wayback effect

Yes, I invoked Austin Powers in my Bottom Line recommendation. Honestly, when I heard about this app from a friend of mine, my first thought was “Cool! A Peter Max app!” Either way, PhotoTropedelic by Larry Weinberg is a fun app which produces effects unlike anything else currently in the App Store.

One of the things that I like about this app is that it can also produce artwork that’s vector-based PDF (although getting there is a little kludgy), allowing you to output to any size, or to rasterize in Photoshop to convert to any resolution.

Glyn Evans from iPhoneography.com put the app through its paces. An update has already been submitted to Apple fixing the watermark issue mentioned in his review. The app goes for $1.99 USD.

iPhone App Review: TOUCHUP STUDIO by Glyn Evans

TOUCHUP STUDIO

TOUCHUP STUDIO

TOUCHUP STUDIO
Version 1.0

Bottom Line: A promising looking app that gets a big thumbs up.

TOUCHUP STUDIO by Studio Mint is a versatile image editing app for iPhone with several good effects and filters and a unique interface to implement them. TOUCHUP lets you work with images in a new and fun way. By selecting an effect, you can apply it by either smudging or shaking it into your image. The app doesn’t seem to be a replacement for Photogene, PhotoForge or Perfect Photo. It can create unique effects and image manipulations for your photos. I’m intrigued by the shake and/or smudge interface. It appears to be worth a look.

TOUCHUP STUDIO is $1.99 USD in the App Store.

iPhone App Review: ShowTime – Video Recorder, by Glyn Evans

ShowTime – Video Recorder
Version 2.0

If your iPhone is not one of the sexy new 3GS models, one of the features you are probably missing in your camera is the ability to record video. For along time, there have been options such as Cycorder available for jailbroken iPhones, but this is not an option for the majority of iPhone owners.

We are starting to see some new apps which bring limited video capabilities to older iPhones. Glyn Evans reviews one of the new ones, ShowTime – Video Recorder by Polar Bear Farm. You may want to pass on this app for now.

PMA 2010 to feature demos of best/most relevant photo apps

Trade shows are always fun and often insiteful. If you’re near Southern California or can travel, this promises to be an excellent trade show. I’m planning on attending as a guest and am looking forward to meeting in person and interacting with Glyn from iPhoneography.com and the developers whose apps I use on a daily basis. If you’re there, I look forward to meeting you and swapping stories!

JACKSON, Mich. – PMA – The Worldwide Community of Imaging Associations announces the PMA Photo App Pavilion at the upcoming PMA 2010 International Convention and Trade Show, February 21-23, 2010, at the Anaheim Convention Center in Southern California.

Hosted by Glyn Evans, editor of the popular blog iPhoneography (www.iphoneography.com), the pavilion will showcase developers of the best and most relevant photo applications for mobile devices. There will be presentations at the top of every hour and plenty of time for attendees to interact with and ask questions of the developers.

Participants will include iPhone photographer Sion Fullana, who will talk each day about how he uses his mobile phone and applications to supplement his professional photography career. Brad Malcolm of Athentech will be presenting the Perfectly Clear application, which is a simple image-enhancing software using algorithms that only correct the areas of the photo needing correction. For instance, if the photo is lit well, Perfectly Clear will not enhance it much at all. When there are problems, however, it works magic.

For PMA 2010 registration information, contact the PMA Convention/Registration Department at 800-248-8804 in the United States and Canada or 517-788-8100. Attendees can also visit the convention website.
