After the initial craze for Instagram, many iPad users who really wanted to be able to take different photos have found the app somewhat limited. Instagram only offers photo filters and a very good articulation with social networks, which is not a small thing, but it does not really edit. With Camera + for iPad yes we can do this, in addition to using filters.
The other day we were talking about another application, Snapseed, who does something very similar to which we are going to introduce you today. From the first moment Camera + assists us when taking the photo.
Before and during shooting
We can choose the button to shoot in the previous options, being able to even use the volume button. The preview provides us with several grid guides to better fit the photo and that we can choose previously in the lower bar. In this bar we can also select quality with which we want to take the photo, assign it a geolocation, decide if we upload it to iCloud and if we share it for social media.
As for shooting the photo, we can adjust and lock the focus, exposure and white balance. Of course, we can also do zoom meeting.
ICloud Lightbox and Library
Not only can we take photos of the camera's shutter, we can also bring it to our Lightbox from iCloud, if we take them with another Apple device such as an iPhone or from social networks such as Facebook or Flirck. The idea of importing photos is to later edit them clearly.
Editing photos with Camera + for iPad
Once the photo is made, we can retouch it with several very useful tools such as brushes that apply an effect in a specific area. If we want to give a general change we can use filters totals or scenes that change the whole photo. The good thing is that we can overlap several and even then apply effects again with the brush.
As general changes we can also adjust the gloss, saturation, the white balance and, in terms of positional retouching, we can rotate or invert the photo, in addition to cut.
Finally, we can add different frames or bullets.
Price and conclusions
In short, this is a really interesting application, with many editing options and very well integrated with social networks and Apple's iCloud that allows synchronization between various devices. In this last detail, Camera + for iPad is better than Snapseed although this application, now owned by Google, has more retouching features and is easier to use. Camera + has just arrived on the iPad, after being a total success on the iPhone. Its price has a lot to do with it, just $0,79 versus Snapseed's 3,99. Honestly, for users who do not want to spend a lot and who want to do just a few tricks is more than enough and a great acquisition.
