CardFlow: Photo Workflow

CardFlow for iPad is a deadline photo workflow you can take into the field. Ingest from a card reader, receive photographs live from the camera over FTP, cull on a contact sheet, caption with the same professional IPTC tools as Mac, rename, Quick Edit, and deliver—without a laptop on the sideline.
