Life in LoFi: iPhoneography | iPhone Photo News, Showcases, App Reviews

ProCamera is an excellent iPhone camera-replacement app and has a very powerful set of features, not only for shooting, but with its recently added Studio and FX modules, you can tweak in-app and apply from a great selection of filters.

Normally, ProCamera sells for $2.99. Right now, it’s on sale for only $0.99 — a savings of $2.00. ProCamera is rarely discounted and this sale is for a limited time only, so grab it now.

None of the improvements and additions get in the way of the excellent camera module of ProCamera. For shooting, the app adds tools to help improve the quality of the shot in camera, including separate focus and exposure lock, white balance lock, and anti-shake stabilization. It has all of the things to look for in a good camera replacement app.

The studio and effects modules put the app on par with other all-in-one camera apps. You can read my review of the ProCamera version 3.0 update here. It’s an excellent photo app for getting the best shot in camera and it’s my go-to camera replacement app.

ProCamera works on any iPhone or iPod Touch 4th Gen running iOS 4.0 or newer. The latest version of the iOS is needed to take advantage of some of the app’s advanced features.

Ah, the holiday weekend app sales have begun.

FX Photo Studio 4.2 for iPhone and iPod Touch is on sale for Black Friday. There are a ton of filters in this excellent photo app. There are filters, effects masking, excellent Instagram integration, and now the app fully supports iOS 5 and the higher resolution of the iPhone 4S. All this, and it’s still old iOS and old iPhone-friendly.

It’s on sale now for a limited time for only $0.99 — that’s a dollar off the regular price. This sale is only good for a limited time. It’s got a huge variety of filters and it’s from a great developer who regularly updates the app. It’s easily worth its normal price. FX Photo Studio is a steal for a dollar.

FX Photo Studio is normally $1.99 in the App Store. Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 3.0 or later.

We don’t often cover iPhone videography much on this blog, but FiLMiC Pro by Cinegenix is that great an app.

FiLMiC Pro is billed as “THE Filmmaker’s App.” It adds features specifically for videographers which improve the video production experience on the iPhone. FiLMiC Pro is a full-featured video camera designed with the videographer in mind. There’s everything you could want in here to shoot some pretty serious raw video. It’s got separate focus and exposure targets, white balance lock, a user-switchable rule of thirds grid. It’s a pretty spiffy video app. You can read my review here. I liked it a lot and it’s still averaging over four stars in the App Store user reviews.

FiLMiC Pro is on sale now for only $0.99 – that’s $2.00 off the regular price. This is a limited time sale for this outstanding full-featured, video camera app. It’s not on sale for this price often. This is a great chance to grab it if you’ve missed previous sales.

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod touch (4th generation), iPad 2 Wi-Fi, and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G. Requires iOS 4.1 or later.

We’ve previously reviewed camera replacement app King Camera. Created by iPhoneographers, it started off great and has only gotten much better since.

That’s a savings of 50%.

If you’ve had your eye on iPhone photo app BeFunky Photo Editor Pro but thought that the two dollar pricetag was a little steep for what you got, the app is on sale now for 50% off – that’s only $0.99.

I’ve previously reviewed the app here. I recommend that you read my review before purchasing – know what you’re getting. I gave it a median three stars in my review – not bad, not excellent, but good. BeFunky Pro has some good filters that are pretty cool, like the great pinhole filter. It’s a good, one-click processing app.

This sale is for a limited time only.

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone 4, iPod touch (4th generation), iPad 2 Wi-Fi, and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G. Requires iOS 4.0 or later. Check the compatibility of your device. The app isn’t compatible with many devices, including the iPhone 3G and 3GS.
