With the Camera Connection Kit, iPad might be a good travel companion for your SLR provided there are good photo editing apps. This is a collection of apps to consider.
Very powerful filter-based editing for photos. Has tons of filters and multiple layers. Masking is a bit difficult as there's no visualization. The UI is not intuitive and can be improved to make this even more powerful.
Took some time to get used to and the demonstration video helped. The masks are a difficult to handle as there is no visualization. Also the zoom does not go too far for minute adjustments.
It does one thing and does it very well. Selectively color and desaturate areas of your photos. The UI is slick and intuitive. The masking and zoom capabilities are awesome - hope to see some of these usability features in Photo FX and Filterstorm.
Add striking effects to your photos through simple touch interactions. Create your "Masque-r-piece" and then show it off to the world through convenient in-app sharing!
Turn you photos into cool looking effects like vintage and retro snaps! With this fun and simple darkroom you can apply filters, lightning and borders as easy as one two three.
