➍ Capture photos in uncompressed TIFF for the best possible image quality.
TIFF capture keeps your photos free from JPEG compression ensuring only the highest possible image quality. TIFFs can be shared and exported just like your JPEGs.
➎ JPEG compression can now be changed to your hearts content.
Full control over the amount of compression means you can keep your photos small if you want or crank it up for maximum quality.
➏ Live exposure info on the histogram.
The histogram now shows the current exposure time (shutter speed) and ISO.
➐ Time-lapse parameter limits extended.
Minimum interval time for time-lapse videos has been dropped down to 1/2s and the maximum turned up to 15 minutes.
➑ New perspective composition grid.
This grid will help you line up perspective specific shots.
➒ Easily export your originals without reverting any of your edits.
When saving and sharing your photos you may now choose to share the original/master rather than your edited version.
➓ Storage space & processing speed optimizations as well as loads of bug fixes.

Saw this last night and downloaded it. So far I’m really liking it. I will get the Film Noir Pack and the Vintage Film Pack. The third pack which is three lens (Kaleidoscope, Fish Eye and 3d) for me would get very little use. I like that you can adjust jpeg quality to what you want and you have the option of uncompressed tiff. I have been using both 645 Pro and Pure Shot (both from Jagr.gr) and have both set for best quality tiff. Don’t know if this will take me away from them but KitCam has some features that I really like including video. Will see as I try it farther. For $0.99 I think anyone at all interested should jump on it…
