At the top of the Utilities section of the App Store is a powerful photo editor that gives Photogene and Photoforge a run for their money.

PerfectPhoto by MacPhun has been around almost as long as those two venerable photo apps and boasts a feature set that compares favorably to both — along with some great features of its own. MacPhun is also the developer of FX Photo Studio, a very good filter app. The Perfect Photo 2.0 update is now available and while it doesn’t add many new features to this already powerful app, it has several new features in particular that I think are pretty cool.

Photoforge

Labor Day weekend means app sales! Here’s the first big photo app sale out of the gate!

PhotoForge for iPhone is on sale now for only $0.99 and PhotoForge for iPad is on sale for only $2.99 – that’s $2.00 off each app.

Of the image editing photo apps, PhotoForge is, in my opinion, the most powerful and the one most like “Photoshop for the iPhone” — something the actual Photoshop iPhone app doesn’t even come close to. Both PhotoForge apps are on sale for a limited time.

Nearly everyone with an iPhone has used the camera to take snapshots — pictures of family, friends and moments to capture and share. Far fewer — but a growing and diverse number — have created art for show, gallery or exhibition. But how many would consider using an iPhone for commercial work? How many of you already have?

Since its release a couple of months ago, Iris Photo Suite by Ventessa has quickly become one of the more popular photo editing apps among iPhoneographers. The new 1.3 update released today adds a long awaited feature to iPhone image editing apps – layers support and blending at full resolution. The new layers support will blow iPhoneographers away and offers a very powerful new tool for effects and blends on the iPhone.

Here’s a cool one. The September 2010 issue of Macworld features a cover shot of an iPhone 4… that was shot and post-processed using an iPhone 4!

Macworld contributing photographer, Peter Belanger, used basically the same rig he would have used to photograph the 4 with a Phase One P65+ digital camera. The main difference? He used tungsten lights because of the iPhone’s inability to sync with strobes.

To process the image, he used PhotoForge to remove a slight green cast from the image and Resize-Photo to bring the image to Macworld’s print specs.

Links to the Macworld cover are after the jump. >>>
