Carousel brings an optimized version of the Camera RAW rendering engine to iOSOh man. Apple’s PhotoStream can suck it. Adobe has just announced Carousel, an app which puts the Lightroom/Camera RAW rendering engine on the iPad and iPhone, and also lets you edit your photos and sync those edits between all your devices,
automatically.
Carousel doesn’t sync with your existing Lightroom library. Instead, you install the free Carousel app on your iOS devices and your Mac (Android and Windows versions are in the works) and the software syncs all photos and edits between devices, as well as storing a full-resolution copy on Adobe’s servers.
Here's another shot of the interface, because I know you want to see itYou don’t get the full range of Lightroom’s power, either. Edits are limited to a variety of presets as well as basic image adjustments like saturation, exposure and cropping. But the exciting part is that it uses the same RAW rendering engine as Lightroom and Adobe Camera RAW. This makes great-looking photos with low, low noise. It should also mean (although Adobe hasn’t said so) that you can import these images, with their non-destructive edits, into Lightroom.
The apps are all free, and the service is subscription-based, which makes sense as Adobe is storing your photos for you. Subs will be $10 per month or $100 per year, with an introductory price of $6/$60. The apps should be out any time now.
