p.1 #1 · iPhone Apps for photographers

Greetings everyone. I've seen a lot of activity surrounding iPhone apps, so I just published a Journal entry discussing the ones that I use for my photography. I've also included a couple of desktop apps as well. These are not photo manipulation apps, but research and scouting apps that you may find useful. Hope my suggestions prove useful for you!

The "Spot" app you're looking for already exists... It's called GPS Tracker, by Instamapper LLC.

I was told that there is an App to use the i-phone (possibly an I touch?) as a wireless shutter release.
this would interest me Dave

Hello David
as far as I know, that feature is only available when shooting tethered for certain brands. I just read that Canon had an App out for just that purpose. I don't shoot tethered, so I have no personal experience. I guess the funtionality would rely heavily on your camera. Some have built in radio or IR receivers, but the iPhone would need to be able to link to that frequency. In my line of work, I haven't needed that functionality, so I haven't looked more into it. All the best, and thanks for commenting.

DSLR Remote works well but you need to be tethered. Very cool app
Mapcard links a photo to a map
Mailphotos lets you email multiple photos at different sizes

I'm going to check out the photographer's ephemeris .

The DSL remote is a cool app although I do not use it that much, it works well.

I looked into the app - unfortunately it only works when you have cell coverage. Which is less than 1% of the landmass in Alaska and where I'm not 99% of the time

Guess I'll have to invest in a SPOT - was going to anyways. Seems like it is the best available option.

+1

I thought it was a gimmick first but after using it a couple of times, it is a useful tool ~ IMO, the pro version is worth the 20 sovs.

Another two that I have on my phone and use from time to time are Simple DOF (dof and hyperfocal distance) and Darkness (sunrise, sunset, moon phase, positions, times, etc.)

It has been said here that the camera has to be tethered to the computer for The DSL remote to work, if that is true I don't see where it would benefit me, Dave

If you have a Laptop or Netbook, you can hook that up instead of purchasing the Wifi Adapter for the camera.

Once connected then you set up an ad-hoc network and connect the iPhone. The iPhone can then control the camera settings remotely. You actually get to see what the camera sees and decide when to take the picture. If you have the money for the wireless adapter, you can then connect it to the iPhone then work that way.
