Silent Film Director ( ) was recently featured by Apple as one of the Top Retro Apps for iPhone. To celebrate this, Silent Film Director is FREE for a very limited time. Back to regular price on Sunday evening.

With Silent Film Director you can create very realistic retro films: add special effects, customize video speed, add soundracks, title cards, transitions and more. You can check some of the most awesome films here (or right from inside the application).

Also this weekend, FX Photo Studio ( ) keeps inspiring photographers to create unbelievable images and MacPhun are doing their best to keep it as affordable as possible – only $0.99 during upcoming weekend for 194 photo effects and filters, masking and color splash tools, lots of sharing options and other great features.

We’ve previously reviewed camera replacement app King Camera. Created by iPhoneographers, it started off great and has only gotten much better since. Version 2.0 is now in beta and a new update is forthcoming, but if you don’t already have this fast, powerful camera replacement, it’ll be on sale for only $0.99 for three days only and will be discounted through this weekend. 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.

FX Photo Studio 4.0 for iPhone and iPod Touch recently hit the App Store with more filters and more features, including effects masking and excellent Instagram integration. All this, and it’s still old iOS-friendly. You can read what’s new in our previous post on the app.

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 through the weekend, and this is for the brand new updated version of the app. 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 and is on sale for a limited time. Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 3.0 or later.

We’ve previously reviewed ScratchCam by Luna’s Edge. It’s a great, easy to use app that adds cool, stressed film and photo print effects to your pics using color and black & white effects, oversaturation and color shift combinations.

ScratchCam is on sale now for a short time for only $0.99 – a savings of $1.00 off the regular price. This is for the full version of ScratchCam, not the feature-limited lite version. If you like the look of grunge iPhoneography and don’t already have this app, this is a great chance to add it to your toolbox and save a buck. Grab it now. This sale has already been on for a day and will end soon.

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 4.0 or later.

Hipstamatic never goes on sale. It doesn’t need to. It’s already hugely popular and is always at or near the top of the App Store’s Photography apps charts. But right now, Synthethic is having a Flash sale on the app for a few hours only this Friday evening. Hipstamatic is on sale now for only $0.99 – that’s $1.00 off the normal price for the standard gear. It’s like getting one of the in-app HipstaPaks for free.

If you’re new to iPhoneography and don’t already have Hipstamatic or if you’ve somehow otherwise managed to last this long without succumbing to Hipstamatic’s siren’s song, this is the best price you’ll see on the app. Hipstamatic sales are very, very rare and this one will be gone in a few hours. Grab it now.

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch (4th generation), iPad 2 Wi-Fi, and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G. Requires iOS 3.1 or later (still old iPhone friendly!).

Hello, nightowls! If you’re up late this July 4th holiday Sunday night, check out these sales and freebies in the App Store right now.

Iris Photo Suite for iPhone and Iris Photo Suite for iPad are both FREE right now in the App Store. They’ve been reduced for a couple of hours now. This giveaway won’t last very long. Click the links above and grab them now.

Snapseed for iPad, a pro-level iPad-only photo editor, is on sale through July 4th for only $1.99 — that’s a huge discount off its normal $4.99 price tag.

Within the free app Adobe Photoshop Express, the in-app purchase for the Adobe Camera Pack featuring the excellent Noise Reduction tool is now only $1.99 — a savings of $2.00 of the normal price of $3.99. I’ve reviewed it previously and at $1.99 the noise reduction tool becomes a much more attractive purchase.

And the great Halftone app is on sale for $0.99 through July 4th — a savings of $1.00. It’s a fun app and I think the best pulpy, comic-like, halftone generator in the App Store.

If you’re celebrating this weekend, have a safe and Happy 4th of July!
