Description from the AppStore: Sepia tone is a popular photograph filter with cool brown tone. Many photographers in the 1800s printed their photographs with sepia-ink. Todays sepia tone is used to make instant vintage photos.
Sepia algorithm varies in the world. But most camera apps provide only one sepia filter. The best sepia algorithm can differ for each photo. Choose an optimum sepia filter for your own photo with this app.
Features:
5 sepia filters
Natural Sepia: Natural sepia is a sepia tone with specific values that are recommended by Microsoft. R=0.393*R+0.769*G+0.189*B, G=0.349*R+0.686*G+0.168*B, B=0.272*R+0.534*G+0.131*B- Sepia x1: Most sepia apps use this filter.
- Sepia x2: This doubles the intensity from sepia x1.
- Sepia x3: This triples the intensity from sepia x1.
- Vignette Sepia: Vignetting is a reduction of an image's brightness or saturation at the periphery compared to the image center. Vignetting makes sepia effect more graceful.

Editors comments: If like Black & White Camera + this app only saves at 480 x 320, which I suspect it does, then despite the apps nice interface and subtle effects, is an app to stay clear of.
