Why I love ProCamera by Nicki Fitz-Gerald

There are also hidden depths to this app although, you could be forgiven for missing them as they are tucked away under a Menu header "PRO" then "SETTINGS" in the bottom left-hand of the screen. Here ProCamera boasts a whole editing suite for applying a whole array of photo-editing tools and filters. What I particularly like about the ProLab option is that you can watch the effects, including contrast, brightness and saturation of adjusting 6 options at the same time. I don't recall seeing this on any other photography editing app.

Some of you may have seen the first tutorial I made for iPhoneographyCentral, "Spring Flowers" (below). This was taken using ProCamera and is a great example of what I love about this app, the ability to control exposure and focus independently. I also created a nice softer background to emphasise the shape of the flower by using ProCamera's focussing tool on the edges of one of the petals.

So far, I have covered the main reasons why ProCamera has been top of my app list for a while but this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are a plethora of features covering white balance, anti-shake, self-timer, rapid-fire burst, power-zooming and full-screen trigger and of course ProCamera has recently updated to version 3.1.1.
