The best photo editing app I have found so far for the iPad is Photogene. I know that there are a few reviews of this app already out there but here is my take on it.
The best this about the iPad, in my opinion, is the support for the USB / SD card adapter that hasn’t even been released yet. It was the one thing that gave me the push to want one of these things. With that said, photo editing and organizing is very important to me on the go, for quick sharing and uploading to sites like picasa, MobileMe and Flickr. Photogene has been good to me so far for quick edits and fixes. Some things that are missing are features like the ability to isolate one color, like ColorSplash on the iPhone, red eye repair and a few other tools that I can’t think of at the moment. Here’s an example of a before and after shot, edited by Photogene.
All in all a nice start. Looking forward to future updates.
Thanks for reading.
