Hipstamatic was one of the first lomo apps to arrive on the iPhone scene, offering interchangeable lenses and camera backs (or rather their digital facsimiles) for endless variations in your photos. However, when Instagram stormed the iOS world, Hipstamatic lost its position as the #1 faux-analog iPhone app. However, their new app set to launch this month will attempt to capture something of the magic and mystery of film by requiring you to go through a whole digital roll of shots before showing you how they came out.

Adobe has not been shy when it comes to the idea of integrating the iPad into a real imaging work flow. The new Photoshop Touch app really hammers the whole thing home. It's not quite the concept we saw earlier this year, but it's getting there.

Instagram 2.0 was unveiled just over a week ago, and the massive overhaul of the popular photo app saw a new interface, a handful of new filters, the ability to see their effects live, and tweaks and changes to some of the filters we'd grown so accustomed to in previous version.

When it comes to photography apps, iOS tends to get a lot of love, but an Android developer has just released the beta of what might just be a killer app for the platform. DSLR Controller is an application crafted by well-known Android developer Chainfire, which lets you control your Canon DSLR via your Android phone — with a few caveats.
