    Pro HDR

    by eyeApps LLC

    The iPhone camera touts one of the best small sensors ever made, but if you really want your mobile shots to shine, you need to check out Pro HDR. Snap one photo, and several layers--all with different exposure characteristics--are captured and combined. While a simple HDR feature is included on newer iPhones, most "iPhoneographers" find it very basic and heavily lacking when it comes to features and customization. Pro HDR is a marked improvement, and its bright, breathtaking results should make even the most hardened Flickr critic stand up and cheer.

    Word Lens

    by Quest Visual

    Forwarding webpages, pictures, names, and numbers is all well and good, but sometimes you'll come across a message of international import. In that case, you'll probably need a translator. But don't look to the Yellow Pages--Look to the App Store instead. Word Lens, like good science fiction, lets you instantly translate everything you see. Hold your camera to a street sign or billboard, and you'll see the same sign, only translated into your language! Unlike most language translation apps (which require you to manually enter the words you want translated), Word Lens lets you point your iPhone at the printed word and get an accurate translation superimposed on the original. It's free, so try Wow Lens... er, Word Lens now!
