This is a serious, must have app for photographers working with the iPad. Its non-destructive editing is the perfect complement to Photoshop Touch’s destructive, layer-based editing.
It integrates seamlessly with your iPad’s photo library, allowing you make changes at will, save out multiple versions, and restore images to their original settings. It even works with Camera Raw images.
The UI is elegant and simple, yet sophisticated. Apple has combined brightness, contrast and levels into a single, powerful tool. Color images can be turned into black and white images using color information to optimize shape and exposure. And metadata can be copied from one image and applied to another, or stored in other images.
In one case, I was able to correct a severely underexposed image, and make it look better than the identical image that was correctly exposed. And there are many creative tools as well.
Many have given this app a poor review. Perhaps this latest release has addressed these issues, perhaps they simply don’t understand (the comment about not being to create new albums was invalid; you don’t create albums in this app, you create them in the iPad’s native Photo Library app.)
iPhoto is essentially Adobe Camera Raw for the iPad, executed brilliantly. For the purchase price, it’s a no-brainer.
Highly recommended.
