Press release:
Cocologics, the new name for developer daemgen.net, recently released ProCamera HD for iPad. It lets users get the most out of their iPad camera for both photos and videos. ProCamera HD has the full suite of professional capabilities and ease of use from its sibling iPhone app, ProCamera. And it also adds several special features just for iPad and its HD quality.
“iPad 3 has a dilemma,” Jens Daemgen, CEO of Cocologics said. “Despite the big jump in the camera hardware quality compared to iPad 2, it is still inferior to the camera of the iPhone 4S. But most importantly, the size of the iPad creates the need for an optimized user experience and user interface. That’s where we came in.” ProCamera HD’s new Expert Mode allows users to have a complete control over exposure, focus, and white balance. Of course it comes equipped with ProCamera‘s Anti-shake image stabilization for sharper photos, as well as a Self-timer with the special SnapTrigger functionality. So users can take much better photos and videos, and then take advantage of iPad 3’ high-definition retina display.
The new, unique SnapTrigger feature is perfectly adapted to the iPad. Users decide where the control bar is located on the screen, which allows users to take photos and videos in their own way with a customized user interface. The new internal library ‘Lightbox’ allows users to save photos and videos a lot faster. ‘Lightbox’ also makes it easy to delete, share, and export multiple photos and videos, all without cluttering up the iPhone’s camera roll.
(Editor’s Note: I think this is one of the coolest features of the app — the movable toolbar. Taking a photo with an iPad feels like using a bulky oversized camera. You can position the toolbar anywhere onscreen that’s best for your workflow. Having the ability to move the toolbar — shutter release button, tools, menue, et al — is a great feature that dramatically helps improve the iPad-only workflow. =M=)
ProCamera HD also shares these same features with the popular iPhone version:
Main Features (camera & video):
– SnapTrigger (patent pending): Movable control bar to fit everyone’s style
– Lightbox: Internal library, allows easy deleting, sharing, and exporting of multiple photos and videos

Support for Social Networks:
– Sharing has never been easier. Upload your photos to Facebook, Twitter, flickr, and DropBox – individually or in bulk! Email sharing with multiple photos is also possible. New and unique in ProCamera HD is video sharing to DropBox — in full resolution.
