Bringing Big Smiles to iPhone Shutterbugs
A basic tenet of photography is that the best camera is the one you have on hand when you need it. For many people these days, that means an iPhone. A basic tenet of photography is that the best camera is the one you have on hand when you need it. For many people these days, that means an iPhone. jordan shoes Skip to next paragraph Camera Genius is a do-it-all app that includes a digital zoom, shutter release and photo timer. Photogene helps with cropping, sharpening and straightening images. It’s easy to understand why: not only is the iPhone a universal communications tool, its one- button camera is also stunningly simple to use. “It really opens your eyes creatively when you have to take a photo with something with such limited functionality,” said Chase Jarvis, a commercial photographer based in Seattle who has been smitten by the iPhone’s camera. “The beauty is in its simplicity. There are no lights or other equipment.” ugg boots But you can add creative control and functionality with camera tools from the Apple App Store. Like the iPhone itself, iPhone camera apps are snap-simple to use, according to Mr. Jarvis, who has developed his own app (more on that later), published an iPhone photo book and started an online community for iPhone photo enthusiasts. Just as the iPhone is a very basic camera, so too are the camera apps. None deliver the functionality of Photoshop CS4, nor will they endow your iPhone with digital S.L.R.-like powers. The best hit the sweet spot where appropriate features and usability meet, although there is no shortage of goofy one-trick gimmicks. Roughly 2,000 camera apps are available at prices that start at the unbeatable free and typically top out at $2.99. Here are 15 that will help you capture, edit, enhance and share your images. jersey Snap the Shot Camera Genius (99 cents): This do-it-all app includes an intuitive digital zoom, a full-screen shutter release that enables you to tap anywhere on the LCD to snap a shot and a photo timer that will automatically capture the action. Also part of the package is a grid that helps you level a photo and an antishake feature that waits until the phone is steady to release the shutter. Best Camera ($2.99): Mr. Jarvis collaborated with a software developer to design an app to help create, edit and share photos. Best Camera includes a full-screen shutter release, an antishake feature and a shutter timer. After snapping the shot, you can apply a range of filters and effects; should you get carried away, you can simply remove the filters you’ve applied. The sharing feature enables one-click uploads to Facebook, Twitter and e-mail accounts. You can also share photos in real time on Mr. Jarvis’s new online community, thebestcamera.com. ugg boots Snapture ($1.99): Burst mode is great for sports or action shots, and Snapture gets the ball rolling by snapping three consecutive shots. It includes a leveler, a full-screen shutter release and a 5X digital zoom. Some of its features are curiously hidden, so it’s a good idea to click the info link for an overview. Camera Zoom 2 (99 cents): The App Store offers a handful of digital zoom tools, but Camera Zoom 2 is the best. It provides a 4X digital zoom that is easily adjustable. It produces slightly sharper images than free apps and also includes a full-screen shutter, an antishake feature and a shutter-release timer. Night Camera (99 cents): The iPhone flails in low light, but this app can restore a little detail to photos. Night Camera employs the iPhone’s accelerometer to fire the shutter only when the camera is stable. It also includes full-screen shutter release and the ability to save images in black and white or sepia. nike jordan Edit and Add Filters Photogene ($2.99): This capable, easy-to-use app enables you to apply standard fixes like crop, sharpen and straighten. You can correct colors (using a histogram or an auto button) and tweak exposure and contrast. Photogene goes beyond standard editing with the ability to add thought bubbles and other shapes as well as a variety of frame types and effects. It includes multiple undo, so edit with abandon. Fashion Ugg Boots Crop for Free (free): Cropping is a must-have utility, and this one is free. Just click the crop icon, grab the red brackets in any corner of the photo and drag to size. Easy as pie. CameraBag ($1.99): If you buy just one filter app, make it CameraBag. This tool lets you apply vintage camera and film simulations to photos. Helga, for instance, creates a square-format toy camera treatment with washed-out highlights and retro vignettes. Other filters include Magazine (rich tones), Mono (balanced black and white), 1974 (faded and tinted), infrared (black and white inverted), Lolo (hyper-vibrant), Instant (Polaroid), 1962 (high-contrast black and white) and fisheye. You can combine filters to create a custom style. It’s enormously fun and easy. Cool fx (99 cents): Cool fx, from the camera lens maker Tiffen, packs a whopping 172 preset filters into one 99-cent tool. Cool fx’s five categories — monochrome, color, diffusion, grain and temperature — provide a trove of film and photographic filters that includes 70 black-and-white film filters and 50 diffusion textures, including the esoteric Donkey Fur. You can crop photos, create custom vignettes and adjust brightness. The interface is a bit baffling, so expect to spend a few minutes learning. cheap jersey Next Article in Technology (18 of 18) » A version of this article appeared in print on November 26, 2009, on page B5 of the New York edition. ShakeItPhoto (99 cents): If you’ve noticed people cheerfully shaking their iPhones recently, they’re probably using ShakeItPhoto to create a “fauxlaroid” effect. The app is a snap to use: Select an image and click Use, and a Polaroid-like print descends from the top of the screen, complete with sound effects. Shake the iPhone to make the image “develop” faster. iFlashReady (99 cents): iPhones are woefully flash-less, which makes low-light situations highly challenging. The software-based “flash” employed by iFlashReady can help you brighten images after they have been captured. Many apps enable you to adjust brightness, but iFlashReady is based on an algorithm that its maker says intelligently lightens each pixel. buy ugg boots Get Creative ColorSplash ($1.99): Drama and fun converge in this app, which converts images to black and white and then lets you use your finger to “paint” color back in on certain areas — a stunning effect. You can zoom in for precision finger painting, and customize brush types and sizes. Sharing on Facebook, Twitter and Flickr is built into the app. TiltShift Generator (99 cents): This app makes it a breeze to simulate the bokeh effect produced by D.S.L.R.’s by selecting a focal point and then blurring the background. TiltShift Generator offers radial or linear blur, the size of which can be easily adjusted. The app also enables you to tweak saturation and brightness as well as create custom vignettes. It features an auto-export feature for Twitter and e-mail accounts. One downside: Images are saved in a noticeably lower resolution. Air Jordan 23 Sharing the Results PixelPipe (free): PixelPipe is a fast and easy way to upload photos and videos to all your photo- sharing sites, microblogs, social networks and e- mail accounts — at the same time. The service can upload to as many of the 95 destinations, and it can do so in full resolution or in bandwidth-friendly smaller file sizes. It’s easy to set up new uploads, although it’s best to use the app when connected to Wi-Fi. Your photo-sharing app (free): Whatever online photo-sharing service you favor, it has an app that enables you to upload and download photos, browse images stored online, create slide shows and e-mail gallery links. Just search the App Store for services like Flickr, Shutterfly, Kodak Gallery, Photobucket, SmugMug and more.

26 dead as Indonesian ferry sinks
At least 26ugg new style people died Sunday when a ferry sank off the Indonesian island of Sumatra, and an unknown number of people were missing, officials said. There were 250 survivors from the sinking, which occurred during bad weather, according to the ministry of transportation. Strong winds and waves hampered rescue efforts after the ferry sank off Riau province. The ferry carries passengers between Riau and Batam island.

The ministry said earlier that an estimated 260 people were aboard, while the manifest showed 213 on board, including 15 children, plus 12 crew members.

Panel Approves Curbs on 'Too Big' Firms
WASHINGTON -- A key House panel voted Wednesday to give government the power to break up large financial firms whose collapse might threaten the broader economy, despite aggressive lobbying by major financial institutions to kill the measure. Air Jordan 11 The amendment illustrates how some lawmakers are willing to go beyond the authority sought by the White House -- which stopped short of giving regulators power to break up healthy firms -- in the redrawing of the financial world's regulatory framework. A divided House Financial Services Committee voted 38-29 to approve an amendment offered by Rep. Paul Kanjorski (D, Penn.) that would allow a council of regulators to determine whether factors including the size or interconnectedness of an individual firm pose "a grave threat to the United States." Such a firm could be prohibited from merging with another firm or be required to sell business units or assets. DUNN JERSEY The measure still must be approved by the House of Representatives and the Senate before it could be sent to the White House for approval. Democrats mostly supported the measure, though a few voted with Republicans against it. Republicans who opposed the proposal said it would give the government nearly unchecked powers to demand changes at otherwise healthy companies. UGG tasmina Braid Sandals "This puts the 'D' in draconian," said Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R., Texas). Mr. Kanjorski said the position was a difficult one for him to take, but that "no firm should be considered to be 'too big to fail.' " The amendment is part of a broader legislative overhaul of financial-sector rules pending in Congress. If enacted, the government would have the authority to act aggressively to deal with a systemically risky failure before problems become too unwieldy. Cleveland Cavaliers jerseys The amendment gives the government the ability to "preemptively disassemble a business, not because it's systemically injurious to the economy, but because it could be," said Rep. Scott Garrett (R., N.J.), who opposed the amendment. Backers say it is needed to prevent the government from having to decide whether to bail out a faltering company, such as American International Group Inc., or let it descend into an uncontrolled bankruptcy, such was the case with Lehman Bros.
