I'm probably the last person to stumble upon The Photographer's Ephemeris. What an excellent piece of freeware for planning a shoot! Now my curiosity is piqued as to other software tools out there to assist in image capturing. Thanks for any leads.

Some of these aren't specific to photography but I use them regularly when planning outings.

DSLR Kit for Dummies (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/digital-slr-photography-toolkit/id350489217?mt=8) (most of this is useless but the "Shoot Diary" is great for scouting trips)

Here's a blog post I wrote last year about which iPhone apps I use for nature photography (http://blog.bretedge.com/2009/10/13/iphone-apps-for-nature-photographers/).

Thanks, Bretedge. With Apple at the forefront of mobile computing, more & more apps are written for the iOS rather than the Mac OS. This certainly makes sense considering the portability of the iPhone, iPad, etc. I have been considering the iPad since its introduction. Looks like I will take the plunge when iPad 2 is released in April.
