Hands-On With Camera+ 2

Jay Hathaway of Download Squad:

So, what’s new in Camera+ 2.0? Plenty! Let’s start with the filters. You’ll notice that the “normal” button that used to be in the center of each filter selection screen has been replaced by an additional filter. Under Color, it’s a blue filter called Cyanotype. Retro gets a glowing filter called Tailfins, and Special gains the best new filter of all, Depth of Field. I can’t stress how awesome the Depth of Field filter is: it calculates what’s in the foreground of your photo, and intelligently blurs the rest. If you’re shooting a new Facebook profile photo, this is absolutely the filter you want to use.
