Mannheim, Germany – daemgen today is pleased to announce ProCamera 3.0 for iOS, a major update to their award-winning, best-selling camera app. Features include advanced picture optimization, anti-shake image stabilization, still/video compatibility, iOS 4 multi-tasking, auto-timer, virtual horizon, multiple compositional grid lines/reticules, photo compass, and an Expert Mode that enables the user to set and lock focus, exposure, and white balance to different areas on the viewfinder. A complete redesign, the update adds Pro FX Studio to turn photos into art, a new Pro Lab to improve picture quality, and Pro Cut Studio for leveling and cropping. The update is free to existing users.

The ProCamera 3.0 update adds refinements to the GUI, convenience features, and several new in-app modules for post-picture processing. Long-time users of the app will notice a new app icon, and re-designed buttons and controls. Cleaner and easier to use, the GUI leaves all controls where they have been, and there is no learning curve for the user of previous versions. New convenience features in the update include: On/Off full-screen shutter release, optional full-screen trigger with anti-shake function, On/Off geotagging, one-touch video recorder access, and On/Off app sounds.

The new Pro FX Studio enables the user to apply one-touch effects to pictures. The effects library comes with 32 different effects, and daemgen has announced it will be offering additional effects packages as in-app purchases. The current range of effects features artistic filters such as Old Canvas and Marilyn, but also easy-to-apply color fixes, highly anticipated by many iPhone 4 users due to the well-known yellowness of their camera systems. The Pro Cut Studio gives the photographer a suite of intelligent tools to cut, crop, rotate, or flip photos. Creating Facebook profile pictures is accomplished with two finger taps.
