Favourite camera apps other than Hipstamatic?

Hi all,

I currently have Hipstamatic, Camera+ and Camera Bag.

The thing I'm not a big fan of with Hipstamatic is the fact that you can't take pictures and THEN add filters/effects or add effects to pictures already in your picture roll.

Aside from the apps I've listed above (since I already have 'em), what else do I need to try?

TIA!
 
You should try Instagram. It lets you try different filters before you save it.

If you use the regular camera app you can even import those photos into Instagram to do new filters and you can do that again and again, thus using all the filters on the same shot.

The point of Instagram is kind of to be like Twitter. You follow other photographers and they follow you. BUT if you're not into that stuff you don't have to follow anyone. Everything you take is copied into your camera roll when you make it.

So you'll have an online thread, but if no one follows it then no one will ever know. You'll just use the camera-roll copies and be happy.

It also lets you upload photos to Flickr as you make them, which is pretty cool.

Here's all the photos I've taken with Instagram so far:

Your Instagram photos look excellent.

I'm also loving the Photoshop Express app as well. Will check out 360 Panorama too :)

Thank you guys!

I love Swankolab! It's a digital darkroom and makes for some interesting effects.

Incredibooth is kind of fun too. It's makes a photo booth strip of picts.
 
I currently have Camera+, CameraBag, Photoshop Express, Instagram, and Hipstamatic installed. The problem with Hipstamatic is that if you've seen one Hipstamatic photo, you've seen them all. Everyone's pictures all end up looking the same.
 
I have always loved Camera Genius and got this after getting my ipone for the first time and as I've upgraded my phone I've always had this app.

My main reason for getting it was that I like to have the timestamp on my photos, but the recent updates have made this a real top app for me..

however, the thing that I really miss from the stock camera is the geo tagging. I end up taking most of my pics with Camera Genius, but then adding a few with the stock app so I can look at the location on google maps.

so, is there anything out there that will give me a timestamp AND geotagging?
