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!

The recently updated PhotoForge2 is on sale for only $0.99 right now until the next update — that’s a savings of $2.00 off the regular price. This is a great price for this powerhouse image editor. This sale will only last until the next update is released.

There are a couple of things we can extrapolate from this announcement…. First, a new update is coming. Second, it looks like the next release will finally have native iPad support.

With this along with the release of the newly updated Filterstorm 3, the image editing apps category just got very interesting. Your move, Photogene….

PhotoForge2 is easy enough for beginners to start getting creative, yet powerful enough for iPhoneographers with any level of experience. PhotoForge2 requires at least iOS 4.2. It will run on any device that can install iOS 4.2 or greater. This includes iPhone 3G or newer, iPod Touch 2nd gen or newer, and all iPads.

The popular ClassicCAMERA apps from misskiwi are on sale now for a limited time. ClassicPAN, ClassicSAMP, and ClassicINSTA are all on sale right now for $0.99 each — a savings of $1.00 for each app.

Each of these apps feature the excellent set of authentic looking ClassicCAMERA retro analog film filters. Each app recreates a different style of toy camera. ClassicSAMP recreates several different plastic multi-shot cameras. ClassicINSTA replicates the style of analog instant photographs. And ClassicPAN is a great single-shot panorama camera app which recently got a great new SprocketRocket-like effect.

These are the siblings to the popular and highly recommended ClassicTOY app. The last time misskiwi’s ClassicCAMERA apps went on sale, it was for a very limited time and they went back to their regular price very quickly. If you’re missing any in the set, this is a great chance to grab them now before the price goes back up.

ClassicINSTA

ClassicPAN – Vintage Panoramic Camera

ClassicSAMP – 4 lens toy camera

ScratchCam is 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. It was recently updated and now lets you save presets.

ScratchCam is on sale now for a very limited time for only $0.99 — that’s a dollar off the regular price. This is for the full version of ScratchCam, not the resolution-reduced Lite version. These discounts often go away quickly. If you’ve been thinking about ScratchCam, this is a great time to grab it.

ScratchCam is normally $1.99 in the App Store. Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 4.0 or later.

FiLMiC Pro by Cinegenix 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 a spiffy video app that I’ve reviewed previously. I liked it a lot and it’s also averaging over four stars in the App Store user reviews.

It normally sells for $2.99. It’s on sale this weekend for only $0.99. This is a limited time sale for this excellent full-featured, video recording app.

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.
