Best Mobile Apps for Travel Photography - ALXMLS | Mobile Photography | Scoop.it

Great app, costs a few pence here and there but great fun. What you get is a retro styled camera with a variety of lens options and frames/borders that add that real vintage feel to your pics. Hipstamatic was way further ahead of facebook and instagram with the whole ‘filter’ thang. The quality of the pics is sooo much better that those on instagram, being sharper, higher clarity. In addition you can organise prints and order real analogue prints via there store. There are a few extra bells and whistles now, but the base unit is the same. The sharing options are pretty awesome too, linking nicely to instagram / tumblr / flickr etc.

Leave the default camera on your iPhone alone and get your head around this powerful camera and video app. Seriously impressed with this bit of kit, it features: Auto white balance (and lock), focus lock, anti-shake, timer, filters, exposure control (by simply scrubbing over area you want to expose for), burst mode, tags (great for like me when you are part taking photos for one of your blogs at a later date), geotags, big button mode (turning your screen into a button – great for covert street photography) and great sharing tools.

Slice, dice and mix match those pics into multi-montage diptychs and beyond. Its a great tool for creating photo-stories and when you don’t want to flood your feed with 4 – 6 images of a similar thing.

Without a doubt, over the last couple of years this has been the app that people have asked me the most about.
