Adobe has released a free app , Project Indigo, for professional photography on iPhone.
One of the enduring benefits of the smartphone revolution is that it has put a camera in everyone's pocket - one that can reliably take good photos at the press of a button, combined with the convenience of using the same device for editing and sharing of these photos. In fact, despite the small size of these cameras, their photos often rival those from big cameras (SLRs and MILCs), with high dynamic range in bright scenes (like the snapshot above) and low noise in dark scenes (like the grandfather clock below).
While this phrase has come to mean many things, in the context of mobile cameras it typically includes two strategies: (1) under-expose slightly to reduce the clipping of highlights, and (2) capture multiple images in rapid succession when you press the shutter button. When presented with a scene having a very high dynamic range, most smartphones apply an exaggerated version of local tone mapping, in which the contrast across edges is amplified even if this causes a distortion of tonal relationships among different parts of the image. At right is a (mostly-)all-in-focus photograph of a tiny flower constructed from 41 Indigo photos, again captured on a tripod using Long Exposure, with a close-up lens in front of the phone and with per-photo focus set using pro controls to span from near to infinity.
