· Nightcap
Where has Nightcap been all our life? This app has us crazy excited about nighttime iPhoneography because it actually makes it possible. Nightcap extends your iPhone shutter to let in more light, and significantly curtails the graininess you'll often see in low-light iPhone photos. It's kind of miraculous...for a phone. Just hold real still and tap to focus. See another example of its awesomeness here.

It's not perfect, but for a panorama app, it more than gets the job done. Again, the key to capturing the best pano possible is to keep still, and only turn the camera as if it's pivoting on a stand (not your whole body). Then, the images save to your camera roll like you see above, you can share them on social networks, where they appear much larger (and better). See here, when we shared this on Twitter. Futhermore, if someone clicks that link from Twitter on their iPhone, they can enable "gyroscope mode," which allows them to turn their iPhone to reveal the image, as if they're actually there. So cool.

· Stop Motion Studio
You can see another video of some StopMotion we shot on the A380 here, but it's not as clean as the above. Essentially you hold your phone and capture stills, bit-by-bit, which are then strung together into a video. Bummer is you may only capture 100 stills in one video, so the video above required two videos we connected in iMovie. Easy-peasy. - Cost $0.99 at the iTunes store
