Photography Bay is Now Optimized for Mobile Users
A couple of months or so back, I made a pretty big change for mobile users after some feedback from those of you on iPhones and iPads.

Photoshop Express 2.0 for iOS
Adobe has updated Photoshop Express for Apple iOS to version 2.0. The update includes the ability to purchase an in-app camera pack that leverages powerful noise reduction based on the outstanding tech in Lightroom 3 and CS5. Additionally, the $3.99 camera pack offers a self-timer shutter trigger and an auto-review option.
You can find Photoshop Express 2.0 in the Apple App Store – and it’s still free. If you want the extra horsepower of the above features though, you’ll have to spring for the $3.99 Adobe Camera Pack as a purchase within the Photoshop Express App.

The presentation went on with Steve Jobs at the helm touting Apple’s video option as 8GB for free. What that really boils down to is that all the iPod nanos now include a video camera; however, you still have to buy the iPod nano to get the video camera (so it’s not really free Steve). And, unfortunately, the iPod nano doesn’t offer the ability to capture still images.
The 8GB iPod nano runs $149, while the 16GB iPod nano comes in at $179. Both versions offer the same video camera specs: [Read more…]
