A unique feature of Camera Plus Pro is the Quick Roll. The Quick Roll supports features such as Tag and Search, protect private photos, Filters, Editing function, Sharing multiple pictures via Facebook and Twitter, adjusting picture quality for faster upload and save. You can also sync it with your Camera Roll.
Editors comments: I had the chance to beta test this app, and whilst it has some very nice features, I really disliked the way that the app saves to its own internal camera roll called "Quick Roll" and the fact that you then have to export (sync) your photos from this Quick Roll to the Camera Roll if you want to edit with other apps or transfer to a computer.
The other let down was the zoom, which like its free sibling Camera Plus, is little more than a crop of the scene.
Despite these negative comments this app has a lot going for it, with its editing and tagging features, but this app isn't for me.
