5 photography apps to download to your new iPad
Lauren Crabbe | Published: Nov 1, 2013 at 14:29 UTC157
The newest versions of Apple's tablets go on sale today. The iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina display both offer improved processing power of their predecessors, but what apps will you want to run on that fast A7 chip? Photographers have a huge array of apps for editing and sharing photos on iPads.
We've picked out five apps that should be on every photographer's new iPad. If you already use an iPad in your photography workflow, let us know about your favorite tablet apps in the comments.
1. Photoshop Touch; $9.99
Even though Photoshop Touch can be used on smartphones, it's a tablet app at heart. Packed with the same tools that made Photoshop a staple desktop application for everyone in the creative industry, Photoshop Touch's multi-faceted user interface is best enjoyed on a larger screen.
You can use Photoshop Touch to do everything from cropping and exposure adjustments to in-depth art projects that are only limited by your imagination and, well, file size. In order to keep the app moving, Adobe limits users to 12MP photos — plenty for smartphones, but you may have to save your images a little smaller on your DSLR if you want all the manual features of Photoshop Touch if you're using your tablet to edit.
Photoshop Touch stands out from the cheaper editing apps with its ability to edit in layers. Instead of saving edits on top of edits, you can edit in different layers and delete individual layers if you don't like what you've done. For many iPad users, Photoshop Touch's layering tool alone is worth the high price tag.
2. Photogene; $0.99
If you want the power of a desktop photo editor for a mobile app's price, look no further than Photogene. This photographic powerhouse offers color adjustments with histogram and curves, sharpening, noise reduction and a plethora of retouch tools.
We gave Photogene a 4/5 stars in our review last year. Since then, Photogene has gone through an iOS 7-inspired overhaul to improve the user interface and has made its "PRO" tools available with its $0.99 app store price — a kit that used to cost an extra $7.99 for separate RGB curves, star ratings, IPTC batch editing and more customizable local adjustments.
3. Handy Photo; $1.99
For easy editing tools with a bit of flair, Handy Photo can help you fix almost any photo issue with ease. Whether it is removing tourists from your destination wedding shoot or simply fixing a pimple on your friend's cheek, you can do it all in Handy Photo.
The benefit to using Handy Photo over the other iPad photo editing apps available is its automatic editing features. With just a few swipes of your finger, Handy Photo lets you do everything from move your subjects to auto-crop your whole image. But don't let Handy Photo's entry-level appeal fool you. If you like to use your iPad to edit photos from your DSLR, Handy Photo can handle photos that are up to 36MP in size and is capable of viewing images at 100% in the app, so you can really inspect your edits before sharing.
4. Photo Editor by Aviary; Free and Snapseed; Free
You've likely noticed Aviary or Snapseed makes nearly every "best of" photography app round up, but there's good reason to back such frequent praise. Why spend money on an editing app when you can get such high quality apps as Aviary or Snapseed for free?
While Snapseed has been stuck in the same user interface since it was first launched, Aviary has a brand new facelift that makes it as light and fresh as the iPad Air in your hands. Still containing the same photo editing tools that made it a favorite of users and developers alike, the new Aviary is cleaner and easier to use. Meanwhile, Snapseed is as awesome as ever with its incredibly easy Selective Adjust tool and new HDR Scape feature. Go ahead, download both and see how you like them. After all, they are free!
5. Portfolio for iPad; $12.99 or FolioBook; $9.99
For some professional photographers, an iPad may be less of an editing tool and more of a modern portfolio. When meeting with clients, lugging around a book of prints may come off as a little old fashioned. Instead, consider taking along an iPad using one of the many portfolio apps for iOS.
Both Portfolio Pro and FolioBook have different strengths. Besides having an exceptionally perfect name, Portfolio for iPad lets you view a wider range of files, including photos, videos and PDFs. FolioBook offers Dropbox integration and allows for portfolio sharing over multiple iPads and Apple TV as well as the instant creation of a website to display up to 20 photos. Both apps have plenty of good user reviews but serve different purposes. If you want something easy to set up that can accommodate your PDFs with your JPEGs, Portfolio for iPad is a good option, but if you need to display your portfolio on multiple devices, then FolioBook is your best bet.

Apple sells an adapter for digital cameras and SD cards that you use to transfer photos from a digital camera to the iPad.
Alternatively, you can use a camera with built in WiFi , or an EyeFi card, to transfer photos and videos to the iPad.

I still have to figure out a way to easily transfer photos from my camera to the ipad.
For photos taken with the ipad itself, it is a waste of time to Photoshop. The photos come out just perfect for Facebook. I assume the developer intention was to make it easy to process the picture taken with the ipad itself.

I love my ipad for reviewing my photos and quick simple edits for posting on my blog and Facebook. The long battery life is a huge plus. Now if I can find an app capable of batch processing my files to be sent off to Mpix for 4x6 proofs I would be super happy. For now I shoot Raw and jpg .

Actually, the new ipad air with 128GB of storage is quite a useful portable computer (and only 1 lbs!), so for a photojournalist on the road, taking pictures and sending them in quickly, there is much to be said in the ipads (or any such tablet for that matter) favor.
I agree, however, that there needs to be RAW import and processing. Does anyone know if there is a RAW engine that runs on the iPad? That is what I was hoping to find when saw the post title. If its not there yet, my prediction is that 2 years from now, it will be common.

While not touted nor supported yet in iOS by Apple (AFAIK), OpenCL is supported by ARM on the 64 bit ARMv8 architecture. In theory, OpenCL would enable the GPU's to process massively parallel numeric operations, just as Nvidia's proprietary CUDA does; perfect for RAW processing.
OpenCL is supported by Adobe in some of their applications today, Premiere and Photoshop being notable. Perhaps some future version of Photoshop Touch will support OpenCL on tablets.

RAW is for rookies. PRE-Processing in-camera to JPEG output is fast becoming the new discipline for the most knowledgeable professionals, since it reduces labor involved in getting images onto the Web and into paying customers' devices.

For those of you not shooting a Full Frame DSLR and routinely making 16x20 inch prints or larger, I suspect these "toy" tablets with "crippled" "Apps" instead of real software (layers, masking to replace green-screen backgrounds, fine editng at the pixel level, etc.), are sufficient.
For reference, in additon to shooting with a DLSR, I still shoot B&W film 35mm-4x5 inches, develop it myself, and make prints up to 16x20 inches in my traditional "wet darkroom" as I have done since the mid 1970's. For some, quality in a no-compromise propsition.

Hardly crippled and hardly toys. Yea, you don't want to process green screen shots on a tablet, but developing RAWs? That can be done freely on iPad. I processed 24 MPx RAWs one first iPad quite freely in field. Cause you see - that's what it is. A gear for work in field. If you're at home - fully fledged PC obviously will do much better job. But I can't take my PC anywhere outside.
Ps. We're proud of you making your own prints. Makes you such a brave and skilled photographer. Everyone! Bow.

You sound like you're living in elitist isolationist crazy land. But out in the *real* world, people do take photos, do process them via mobile apps, and do upload them to the world for viewing quite successfully all the time.
I think there's a segment of the photography population that is just so anally snooty about photography that they've lost touch with what's been going on in the last few years. People are shooting photos on all kinds of devices, processing them on all kinds of devices, out in the real world, on location, with immediacy, then instantly uploading and sharing these images to the world for others to enjoy. It's a more liberating, less anal approach to photography. I feel sorry for people who are still of the closed mindset that "it just can't be done."
Go look at Nat Geo photographer Jim Richardson's Instagram gallery, full of images shot and processed using his iPhone: http://instagram.com/jimrichardsonng
It *can* and *is* being done!

To T3, "I feel sorry for people who are still of the closed mindset that" everyone has to agree with them.

I don't think saying "closed mindset" is "abusive language"! LOL. The reality is that many people do have a closed mindset, which is why you get people such as Morpho Hunter stating that "it just can't be done" in spite of the fact that it is constantly being done as we speak! People just need to open up their minds, see what other people are accomplishing, see the results of this work, and enjoy it!
Technology is constantly evolving, The tools we use are constantly evolving. A few years ago, no one would have dreamed that so much excellent photography would be produced with phone cameras...but it is being done. And being done by people who are open minded about the tools and the possibilities that changing times present to us. Heck, just a few years ago, people predicted the iPad was just a useless toy and a flop! And yet I see iPads being put to great, valuable, effective use by pros and amateurs in all fields and professionals all the time. Open minds get stuff done.

Tablets are a new paradigm in computing devices which has only recently exploded into popularity. For some, this unfamiliar, foreign device creates a bunker mentality, one of denial where people just outright dismiss it as a potentially effective tool. But truth be told, these people are a bit behind the curve. The iPad is an undeniable success, every photographer I know has at least one of them, and tablets in general are a fast growing market (even severely depressing PC sales), especially as mobile processors get faster and more powerful.
Unfortunately, there are still some people who don't see it. But this has always been the case throughout history, with any new technologies that come onto the scene. Heck, we had the same "can't do it" mentality in the early days of digital photography by many film users. Same goes for the early days of the automobile.
Tablets are simply another tool in our toolbox, and shouldn't be dismissed.

T3 is right. Microsoft Surface Pro 2, can use the Adobe Creative Cloud. To me that's a sign of good things to come with the mobile devices. If you recall, there was a time that we couldn't use Adobe on a laptop. The drive space and memory just wasn't there. We all know that has changed. Same will apply to Tablet devices.

These are photography aps - not professional image processing aps... They are incredible for what they are - not for what they aren't. Just as you wouldn't necessarily take professional pictures with your ipad neither would you process those images - although they are getting pretty good, and I have heard the quality of the actual LCD is highly rated.
And also, as a tool for your clients with all the WiFi connectivity and even more immediate gratification they will want to see images immediately so there will even be pressure for the professional to use an ipad for at least some pre-processing and presentation.

i think its a matter of workflow
clients want to see stuff on the "big" screen instantly, but they also wanted it on the cams LCD when we where switching to digital.
every digital artform has the same problem where there might be the time where you have to tell the (unpolite) client "sorry i wont show you unfinished products, its a policy"
workflow wise it strongly depends on the amount of pp your work needs.
the fact alone that with a computer i have one hand for position one hand that has a keyboard with physical keys for "blindfolded" shortcuts and a screen at eyelevel makes a computer superb compared to any touch tevice, thats for sure

Ah yes ... the usual dichotomy. People who believe in using only the right tool for the job and who take their photography very seriously slag the whole idea of editing on a toy (and yes, I still find tablets to be toys because of the form factor more than anything else.)
And the rest fall anywhere along the continuum of totally inexperienced to experienced but willing to sacrifice editing power for the perceived convenience of using a tablet and defend the concept with the usual litany of "you have never tried it yet you have an opinion" ...
Luckily, this perennial war of mismatched skills and expectation drives traffic on these sites ... :-\

Perhaps these leading edge products require leading edge developers and users to break out from the current workflow conventions.
I'm one of those that bought the "toy" iPad Air. I loaded Photoshop Touch plus the Apple apps. Looking forward to buying a Cam Ranger and giving that a go.
Having a more granular approach to editing is just one of the factors for tablets in a workflow including compacts, milc's and dslr's, smartphones, notebooks, laptops and desktops.
I'm pleased that these options are available, and that more powerful apps will ultimately appear for tablets to take advantage of current capabilities.

I would recommend you go look at National Geographic photography Jim Richardson's Instagram gallery, mostly of images shot and processed on his iPhone (they are labeled as iphone when you enlarge them):
I would consider him to be an "experienced photographer" who takes his photography "very seriously". He takes great photos on his iPhone. As he states on his Instagram: "I shoot for National Geographic Magazine, and share my favorites here. Some iPhone, some from assignment. Whatever, sharing is the point." I think that last statement is key: "sharing is the point." Sadly, some people think that the point of photography is to be anally obsessive about pixel peeping, and judgmentally harping on others about "using only the right tool for the job". I feel sorry for these people in their ivory towers. They've lost touch with the spirit of photography: capture images, share images. Or maybe they never had the spirit to being with.

Don't cut yourself short by losing the ability to fully process raw on a tablet. Use a powerful laptop instead. You can the latest and greatest i7, 8GB ram, SSD, for less than price of an iPad if you buy a Toshiba, Asus, Samsung. An Apple is going to cost you 3x more, but you'll have a nice looking case.

There is the sit-down, find-and-electrical-outlet, open-up-your-laptop, fire-up-your-RAW-software crowd. But I think most of these people are just going to want to sit at their home desktop workstation to process their images anyways! That's what I came to realize. So I have an iPad for when I'm out and about, and I have my desktop workstation at home for heavy work. I no longer have a need for a laptop. Plus, as iPads have moved to the new 64 bit A7 processor, I think they are going to be able to do a lot more powerful stuff with the new class of apps being designed to take advantage of this power.

@PicOne - "Is this about immediate gratification vs. ultimate quality?"
Why can't it be about both? Why can't I have a bit of immediate gratification now, then go for "ultimate quality" later *if* I'm still not happy with the results? The reality is that we photographer don't need to be quite so anally, pixel-peepingly obsessed about "ultimate quality" as we think we need to be. Photography can still be done, and enjoyed, without being so obsessive. For example, go look at National Geographic photographer Jim Richardson's Instagram gallery full of images shot and processed on his iPhone:
It's still great photos and great images. Maybe they won't print up to "ultimate quality" standards, but there are plenty of other ways to enjoy photos these days besides huge gallery prints of "ultimate quality." And many more people are seeing these photos than they might otherwise-- which is really what photography is about...photos being seen.

Actually, eventually it will probably be Capture One that will create a version of their software that can run on an iPad, especially as iPads move towards more powerful mobile processors and iPads continue to be so widely used. Plus, Capture One would have to redesign their software to have a touch-friendly UI.
I certainly wouldn't rule out the idea that much more powerful apps would eventually make their way to the iPad. But the reality is that the iPad is really designed to be very power efficient, light, thin, and mobile. It's not meant to be the 400 hp trailer-pulling SUV of the computer world. There are other computers for that purpose, albeit at the expense of light weight, compactness, long battery life, and mobility.

Th iPad (and I own one) has nowhere near the processing power of a desktop intel processor (which is typically 4 physical cores/8 logical cores for consumer chips; hence the confusion. Xeon chips can have more cores). While you CAN edit photos to a basic level on an iPad, it is by no means a preferred medium. The inaccuracy of capacitive screens leads to a great deal of zooming to hit the right spot (vs a 30" monitor with a mouse). It can be done, but only if you must have it *right now* and you are willing to re-do all of your actual work in the office. Alternately, you can probably do some processing on the ipad (now that larger RAW files can be processed), but it will take 2-3x the time, and time is money. FWIW, the A7 processor is roughly equal to an Atom Z3770 (baytrail), which is about half of the speed of my i7-920 from 4 years ago, and less than 1/4 the speed of today's top i7.

I note that your demands are technology based, not end use based. What is it that you need to do with your photographs that requires the tools you use? Do you hang the photos over the fireplace? Use them for advertising in glossy magazines? Or just want to impress others like you in online forums?
For sharing photos online with friends and family, an iPad is fast and efficient; a good tool for that job. Photography on the iPad is not for the one percent of photographers who have money to spend on exotic hardware and software. Neither is dpreview, especially connect.

Not everyone is a hardcore image editor who has time to be sitting at a computer. There are millions and millions of casuals shooters who simply enjoy the ease and convenience of doing it on their iPad while sitting on their couch while watching TV, waiting at the denstist office, or wherever. And these people aren't all "hipsters." They are busy parents, kids, grandparents, etc. My sister has three young boys, and she finds her iPad indispensable for quick image editing, because she simply can't afford the time to sit at a computer while her boys are running around. She basically has to be where her kids are, watching them. So don't be such a narrow-minded buffoon making lame comments about iPad users being just a bunch of "hipsters". Devices such as iPads offer a very valuable level of convenience, mobility, very long battery life, ease of use, and performance that offers a welcomed alternative to being confined to sitting at a computer.

I have a dslr, 1 hard drive, 3 lenses and an iPad 3, 4 season tent and sleeping bag etc. The IPad 3 has been awesome, it edits jpegs, movies, compiles timelaps sequences. In Australia I have a gaming rig with sli 570s. You can understand I don't even have space to carry a laptop or my PC.
I would guess by your statement, you migt be a close minded individual judging others with blanket statements. I suggest when new tech comes along, try it instead of shaking your walking cane at the TV. They really are great pieces of tech, I love editing photos or time-laps movies after I've eaten and am getting warmed by the fire.

@ Jimmy jang Boo - the reality is that the "fanatical and arrogant" Apple users now make up a relatively tiny percentage of Apple usership these days, since there are so many people using Apple products throughout the world today. Millions of people are quietly using Apple products (iPhone, iPad, iMac), and you'd never even know it. It's simply a part of their lives, and with the ubiquity of Apple products these days it's nothing unique anymore, so you would look rather odd being "fanatical and arrogant" about it. It's not 2008 anymore. It's 2013, and Apple products are everywhere, used by people of all types now.

I process my photos on my IPad 90 percent of the time. I work on the road and take most of my photos while traveling. While I cannot process Raw images, I still do very well with Photo Toaster. As time goes on the Apps are getting better. I look forward to being able to process raw photos on my IPad. In reality it won't be that long of a wait. In the mean time I am getting by with my IPad. My Donkey thanks me for keeping the weight down. Oddly enough I still manage to get some award winning images at the same time.

It doesn't make much sense to use an iPad for image processing. It's underpowered for the task and most apps are cloud-centric, which is just bad for large files. I prefer a laptop with Lightroom.

Have you tried one? I have an iPad 3 and used Photogene4 on some old D800 nef files and some Fuji XTrans files. Compared to my aging 2.8 iMac, its just as quick at rendering. End results are fine with no compromises in size imported/exported or IQ.
There a re lot of reasons why a laptop is a better choice. But I suspect you're response is from someone who never tried but still feels capable of rendering an opinion.

"5 must-have iPad apps for every photographer"
I'm a photographer. I don't have an iPad, or any other Apple products of any sort. In fact I don't have a tablet of any sort either. Getting a decent smartphone got rid of any interest I had in a tablet.

I do wish DPReview (and others) would stop promoting this Apple stuff. There are plenty of other places where iSheep can go for their fix. Can we please get back to the topic of serious photography. Sorry but I've just been getting so frustrated about this. DPReview is still arguable the best photography site, but it's becoming increasingly diluted. Whilst I appreciate that tablets can have a use in digital photography the constant biased promotion of Apple products is really grinding.

Perhaps because a simple read through the Android forum will reveal few, if any, serious discussions about using an Android device for photography. Plenty of discussions on why the I/O is better but a glaring absence "serious photographers" doing post, beyond the world of filter apps.

If the stress in your life is more than you can cope with, get help right away.
There's overwhelming evidence that stress impairs judgment. Let me explain.
A beloved friend and colleague at another institution was a very prominent surgeon. He was sought after for his technical skills and keen diagnostic insights. Because of administrative and bureaucratic frustrations, he resigned his position at the top of his game and, in a subtle gesture of defiance, refused to renew his medical license.
After a one-year honeymoon of retirement, my colleague found he missed the energy and collegiality of the medical environment. He applied for reinstatement of his medical license. In response he received a form letter stating that because he was in his 60s and had voluntarily given up his license, he could not apply to have it renewed. My colleague was devastated. He'd made a decision in haste without thinking it through. The result is that he's now struggling with the loss of his sense of purpose and identity.
So the lesson is real clear: You need to visualize and understand the consequences of your choices. And be especially cautious about making decisions in haste.

Way to go Dale, I totally agree with you about the illegal age discrimination by that board. But maybe this was a made-up example, by the author who didn't think it through but just wanted to teach a lesson.
I am shocked!!! The Medical Licensing Board of that State should be sacked, for its poor judgement and wrong-doing. At a time in our nation when patient numbers are rising and physician numbers have not kept pace, it is incomprehensible that this Board would refuse to renew the license of a highly-experienced and well-qualified physician. By citing his age (60s) as justification, these Board members are in clear violation of federal statutes that prohibit discrimination based on age. This physician's attorneys should immediately file suit with the federal court to re-secure his license (and have these Board members prosecuted for violating civil rights law). Unless these Board members can document that this physician is a danger to his patients, they should be removed from office for violating the public trust, by acting in an arbitrary and capricious manner when reviewing credentials and issuing licenses for medical practice. [And no, I am not an attorney; I am a research scientist who believes in justice.]
It's true that we need to settle down our feelings first before making a decision. Other people already know how to control their feelings so no to cloud their judgement/choices. It may be hard at first but through constant practice, we can always balance feelings from being practical/true.
That describes a situation but not how to manage it. Many people under stress do feel they've given thought to their decisions. Better to describe a stressful situation to people, and recommend that you always postpone major decisions about licensing, creditations, etc. until you've had some time to think.

WholeFoods Magazine SourceBook: The Natural Products Directory
If you've read about weight loss recently, chances are you've come across green coffee bean extract. Brought into the spotlight by physician and TV show host Dr. Oz, green coffee bean extract is hailed as one of the better and safer weight-loss supplements on the market today. But did you know research has shown it to be useful in other areas of health, too?
How can parents learn what they need to know about the most common and worrisome issues of infancy and early childhood, including colic, diarrhea, feeding problems, ear infections, colds, flu, fever, allergies and over-the-counter drugs? How can they learn about the nutrients their toddlers need? Much of the information available online and even from "official" sources is questionable. Fortunately, pediatrician Ralph K. Campbell, M.D., and nutritionist/educator Andrew W. Saul, Ph.D., have published a new book that helps address these problems.
A Brief History
In June of 2002, H.J. Heinz Co. introduced the first organic ketchup by a mainstream, mass market food producer. Up until that time, only then-niche organic brands such as Muir Glen, Walnut Acres and the private label line of supernatural retailer, Austin, TX-based Whole Foods Markets, had risked venturing into the small but fast-growing branded organic foods segment. Around this time, conventional supermarkets were in various stages of toe-dipping into the natural and organic waters, expanding and then shrinking shelf space for the products depending on their stomach for risk. By 2003, the U.S. had entered a recession—mild by comparison to the Great Recession of 2007–2009—which caused a slowdown in sales of natural and organic foods within these traditional supermarkets.
The thing I hate most about visiting the doctor is being reduced to a number. In the race to get to the next patient, far too many physicians scan the "high" or "low" column of a lab report, not even caring to look at the numbers within the range or consider other factors that affect a patient's health. Instead, they swiftly move to the prescription pad faster than you can say, "Take two, and call me in the morning."
Savvy shoppers are always looking to get the most "bang for their buck," even when it comes to their dietary supplements. Green foods, with their wide variety of benefits ranging from fighting bad breath to acting as anticarcinogens, are some of nature's best multitaskers.
Last month, we began a discussion about the many health benefits of Pycnogenol with Frank Schönlau, Ph.D., scientific director of Horphag Research (distributor of Pycnogenol). He joins us again this month to highlight some more exciting research about how Pycnogenol supports cardiovascular health, women's health, skincare and more.
Sunset pinked the German sky as the Codex delegates sat at their conference-room tables, a long first day already behind them, still debating health standards that will affect billions worldwide. Naturally a day filled with such debates—especially over technical language for draft guidelines for vitamin-and-mineral Nutrient Reference Values (NRVs) as well as draft Principles about adding essential nutrients to foods—would trick the delegates' sense of time as they crawled through reams of documents, making a long day seem even longer. At such times, natural health is a frequent casualty because overall vision is sacrificed on the altar of hyper-technicality. But not this time. Instead, this first day of the 35th session of the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (CCNFSDU) saw health granted a reprieve, however provisional, as the executioners stayed their hands for reasons unknown.
How much potassium do you think you get daily? The full 4.7 g/day that the Institute of Medicine suggests? If the trend from a recent survey holds, probably 61% of you believe you consume this amount every day—and nearly all of you are dead wrong.
Ears. They're our key to the unseen world of sound. That is why it is important to keep our ears safe and healthy. Infections, wax buildup and tinnitus can affect balance and hearing. Here are some natural ear care remedies that can keep ears funtioning at their best.

LADUE, Mo. (KSDK) - St. Louis Rams tackle Rodger Saffold will present Ladue Middle School students with two awards next week for reaching special physical fitness achievements.
Sixth-graders at Ladue Middle School won the NFL Play 60 Challenge, a program designed to encourage kids to become and remain physically active. The students won by logging more minutes of collective physical activity than any other school in their group. The program is co-sponsored by the NFL and the American Heart Association.
Saffold will also notify the schools at large for being named a Character Fitness Model School. That honor recognizes schools that have achieved a mastery rating in health and nutrition efforts, character development and physical exercise. The St. Louis Rams and CHARACTERplus co-sponsor the program.

PC-SPES (PDQ®): Complementary and alternative medicine - Patient Information [NCI]
This information is produced and provided by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The information in this topic may have changed since it was written. For the most current information, contact the National Cancer Institute via the Internet web site at http://cancer.gov or call 1-800-4-CANCER.
- PC-SPES is a mixture of 8 herbs that was sold as a dietary supplement to keep the prostate healthy (see Question 1).
- Some batches of PC-SPES were found to contain prescription medicines. It was taken off the market and is no longer being made (see Question 1).
- Herbs in PC-SPES have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for many health problems, including prostate problems, for hundreds of years (see Question 2).
- The herbs used in PC-SPES have been reported to help keep cancer cells from growing or help prevent cell damage that can lead to cancer (see Question 3).
- Laboratory and animal studies suggested that PC-SPES might slow the growth of prostate cancer cells, but it is not known if these results were caused by the herbs in PC-SPES, prescription medicines that were found in the mixture, or both (see Question 5).
- Clinical trials suggested that PC-SPES lowers PSA (prostate specific antigen) and testosterone levels in humans and has some anticancer effects. It is not known if these results were caused by the herbs in PC-SPES, prescription medicines that were found in the mixture, or both (see Question 6).
- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved PC-SPES for use in cancer treatment (see Question 8).
Questions and Answers About PC-SPES
PC-SPES is a mixture of herbs that was sold as a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) treatment for people with prostate cancer. The mixture contains these 8 herbs:
- Baikal skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis)
- Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra or Glycyrrhiza uralensis)
- Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum)
- Isatis (Isatis indigotica)
- Ginseng (Panax ginseng or Panax pseudoginseng var. notoginseng)
- Chrysanthemum flowers (Dendranthema morifolium)
- Rabdosia rubescens (Isodon rubescens)
- Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens)
PC-SPES was taken off the market because some batches were found to contain prescription medicines in addition to the herbs. Clinical trials of PC-SPES that were underway were stopped. There are products being sold now as substitutes for PC-SPES, but they are not the same mixture. Since the only company licensed to make PC-SPES is no longer in business, PC-SPES is not legally available in the United States.What is the history of the discovery and use of PC-SPES as a complementary and alternative treatment for cancer?
Most of the herbs in PC-SPES have been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for many health problems, including prostate problems, for hundreds of years. A chemist in New York and a doctor/herbalist in China worked together to create the mixture. In 1997, a company was formed to make PC-SPES and sell it in the United States without a prescription. Interest in PC-SPES grew, and researchers began looking at it. Tests found that some batches of PC-SPES contained one or more of the following drugs, which are not found in nature:
- DES, a type of estrogen made in a lab.
- Warfarin (Coumadin), a blood-thinner.
- Indomethacin, a drug used to decrease inflammation.
Because these drugs are to be used only by prescription and could be harmful to some people, PC-SPES was taken off the market in 2002.What is the theory behind the claim that PC-SPES is useful in treating cancer?
In lab tests, each herb used in PC-SPES has been reported to help keep cancer cells from growing or to help prevent cell damage that can lead to cancer and other diseases.
PC-SPES was reported to slow the growth of prostate cancer but did not cure it. It is not known how PC-SPES works in the body. Some of the herbs in the mixture contain phytoestrogens, which are estrogen-like substances found in plants. Estrogen can cause the testicles to stop making testosterone, which makes some prostate cancers grow. Patients' responses to PC-SPES were similar to responses to estrogen therapy using DES. The DES found in some batches of PC-SPES, however, may not have been enough to cause all of the estrogen-like effects that were seen in users of the mixture. There is some evidence that the mixture works in a different way than DES does, and that PC-SPES alone (without DES in it) may fight prostate cancer.
PC-SPES has also shown anticancer effects on prostate cancers that do not depend on testosterone and on other types of cancer. This suggests that PC-SPES may have anticancer qualities other than its estrogen-like effects.How is PC-SPES administered?
PC-SPES is taken by mouth in capsules.Have any preclinical (laboratory or animal) studies been conducted using PC-SPES?
Studies of PC-SPES in test tubes and using rats showed that it might keep cancer cells from growing. These studies were done, however, before it became known that some batches of the product contained unlisted prescription medicines. Also, the product was not standardized (different batches of PC-SPES were found to contain different strengths of the herbal ingredients). For these reasons, the results of the lab tests and animal studies are not considered to be good evidence.Have any clinical trials (research studies with people) of PC-SPES been conducted?
Clinical trials of PC-SPES had begun before the product was taken off the market. In these trials, PC-SPES was reported to improve quality of life, reduce pain, and lower PSA (prostate specific antigen) levels in patients with prostate cancer. Rising PSA levels can be a sign that prostate cancer is growing.
After it was learned that some batches of PC-SPES contained prescription medicines, ongoing studies were stopped and previous study results came into question. The responses reported in the studies may have been caused by the prescription medicines that were in the PC-SPES, as well as by the herbal ingredients. Also, since different batches of PC-SPES contained different ingredients, the studies cannot easily be compared.Have any side effects or risks been reported from PC-SPES?
Common side effects were the same as those reported with estrogen therapy:
- Breast swelling and tenderness.
- Loss of sex drive.
- Impotence (inability to have an erection).
There were other, less common, side effects:
- Blood clots in the legs.
- Diarrhea.
PC-SPES may also change the way drugs, including anticancer drugs, work in the body. It may cause drugs to be more or less effective, or cause effects on the body that are not expected.Is PC-SPES approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use as a cancer treatment in the United States?
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved PC-SPES for use in cancer treatment. It is not legally sold in the United States.
Changes to This Summary (01 / 18 / 2013)
The PDQ cancer information summaries are reviewed regularly and updated as new information becomes available. This section describes the latest changes made to this summary as of the date above.
Changes were made to this summary to match those made to the health professional version.
General CAM Information
Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)—also referred to as integrative medicine—includes a broad range of healing philosophies, approaches, and therapies. A therapy is generally called complementary when it is used in addition to conventional treatments; it is often called alternative when it is used instead of conventional treatment. (Conventional treatments are those that are widely accepted and practiced by the mainstream medical community.) Depending on how they are used, some therapies can be considered either complementary or alternative. Complementary and alternative therapies are used in an effort to prevent illness, reduce stress, prevent or reduce side effects and symptoms, or control or cure disease.
Unlike conventional treatments for cancer, complementary and alternative therapies are often not covered by insurance companies. Patients should check with their insurance provider to find out about coverage for complementary and alternative therapies.
Cancer patients considering complementary and alternative therapies should discuss this decision with their doctor, nurse, or pharmacist as they would any therapeutic approach, because some complementary and alternative therapies may interfere with their standard treatment or may be harmful when used with conventional treatment.
Evaluation of CAM Approaches
It is important that the same rigorous scientific evaluation used to assess conventional approaches be used to evaluate CAM therapies. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) are sponsoring a number of clinical trials (research studies) at medical centers to evaluate CAM therapies for cancer.
Conventional approaches to cancer treatment have generally been studied for safety and effectiveness through a rigorous scientific process that includes clinical trials with large numbers of patients. Less is known about the safety and effectiveness of complementary and alternative methods. Few CAM therapies have undergone rigorous evaluation. A small number of CAM therapies originally considered to be purely alternative approaches are finding a place in cancer treatment—not as cures, but as complementary therapies that may help patients feel better and recover faster. One example is acupuncture. According to a panel of experts at a National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Conference in November 1997, acupuncture has been found to be effective in the management of chemotherapy-associated nausea and vomiting and in controlling pain associated with surgery. In contrast, some approaches, such as the use of laetrile, have been studied and found ineffective or potentially harmful.
The NCI Best Case Series Program, which was started in 1991, is one way CAM approaches that are being used in practice are being investigated. The program is overseen by the NCI's Office of Cancer Complementary and Alternative Medicine (OCCAM). Health care professionals who offer alternative cancer therapies submit their patients' medical records and related materials to OCCAM. OCCAM conducts a critical review of the materials and develops follow-up research strategies for approaches deemed to warrant NCI-initiated research.
Questions to Ask Your Health Care Provider About CAM
When considering complementary and alternative therapies, patients should ask their health care provider the following questions:
- What side effects can be expected?
- What are the risks associated with this therapy?
- Do the known benefits outweigh the risks?
- What benefits can be expected from this therapy?
- Will the therapy interfere with conventional treatment?
- Is this therapy part of a clinical trial?
- If so, who is sponsoring the trial?
- Will the therapy be covered by health insurance?

About PDQ
PDQ is a comprehensive cancer database available on NCI's Web site.
PDQ is the National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) comprehensive cancer information database. Most of the information contained in PDQ is available online at NCI's Web site. PDQ is provided as a service of the NCI. The NCI is part of the National Institutes of Health, the federal government's focal point for biomedical research.
PDQ contains cancer information summaries.
The PDQ database contains summaries of the latest published information on cancer prevention, detection, genetics, treatment, supportive care, and complementary and alternative medicine. Most summaries are available in two versions. The health professional versions provide detailed information written in technical language. The patient versions are written in easy-to-understand, nontechnical language. Both versions provide current and accurate cancer information.
Images in the PDQ summaries are used with permission of the author(s), artist, and/or publisher for use within the PDQ summaries only. Permission to use images outside the context of PDQ information must be obtained from the owner(s) and cannot be granted by the National Cancer Institute. Information about using the illustrations in the PDQ summaries, along with many other cancer-related images, are available in Visuals Online, a collection of over 2,000 scientific images.
The PDQ cancer information summaries are developed by cancer experts and reviewed regularly.
Editorial Boards made up of experts in oncology and related specialties are responsible for writing and maintaining the cancer information summaries. The summaries are reviewed regularly and changes are made as new information becomes available. The date on each summary ("Date Last Modified") indicates the time of the most recent change.
PDQ also contains information on clinical trials.
A clinical trial is a study to answer a scientific question, such as whether one treatment is better than another. Trials are based on past studies and what has been learned in the laboratory. Each trial answers certain scientific questions in order to find new and better ways to help cancer patients. During treatment clinical trials, information is collected about the effects of a new treatment and how well it works. If a clinical trial shows that a new treatment is better than one currently being used, the new treatment may become "standard." Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial. Some clinical trials are open only to patients who have not started treatment.
Listings of clinical trials are included in PDQ and are available online at NCI's Web site. Descriptions of the trials are available in health professional and patient versions. Many cancer doctors who take part in clinical trials are also listed in PDQ. For more information, call the Cancer Information Service 1-800-4-CANCER (1-800-422-6237).

(NBC NEWS) - A statement issued by Apple on Tuesday reveals that "a limited number" of computers within the Cupertino-based company were infected by malware as part of an attack by hackers.
"The malware was employed in an attack against Apple and other companies, and was spread through a website for software developers," the statement explains. "We identified a small number of systems within Apple that were infected and isolated them from our network. There is no evidence that any data left Apple. We are working closely with law enforcement to find the source of the malware."
The malware took advantage of a vulnerability in the Java plug-in for browsers. Ironically enough, since OS X Lion, Macs have been shipping without Java installed (and OS X disables Java if it is unused for 35 days).
"To protect Mac users that have installed Java," read Apple's statement," we are releasing an updated Java malware removal tool that will check Mac systems and remove this malware if found."
Apple's description of the security breach echoes that of Facebook, which revealed on Friday that that several employee computers were infected with malware thanks to a similar-sounding Java exploit.

The Global Champions Tour is an international showjumping championship which gathers world's top riders and horses who compete for glory and the highest prize money in the sport. The GCT 2012 calendar is poised to deliver another breathtaking, action-packed year of world class show jumping around the globe, with Jaeger-LeCoultre as the official partner and time-keeper of the Tour for the 3rd year.
Nobility, speed, accuracy and impeccable dexterity are the principles that have consistently inspired the rules in both show jumping and the watchmaking art. "There is a historical, intrinsic link between Jaeger-LeCoultre and the world of horses", - says Jérôme Lambert, Jaeger-LeCoultre CEO. – "It is not just about lifestyle and luxury, it is also about a tradition of excellence and the pursuit of something rare and appealing for connoisseurs, that can only be found with long preparation and a lot of talent".
Jaeger-LeCoultre offers its iconic Reverso watch to the winner of each series. Each Reverso awarded as a prize is unique thanks to the special engraved design on the back of the swiveling case, that captures the special moment forever and makes one's watch a treasured piece of personal history to wear.
The 2-times winner of the Global Champions Tour Edwina Tops-Alexander, Jaeger-LeCoultre's aficionado, has ambitions goals for 2012 season with her legendary horse Itot du Chateau. Throughout 2012, Edwina will participate in the most prestigious jumping competitions, wearing a perfect symbol of a life dedicated to sport, the Reverso, which, in the ladies version, becomes a bejewelled and feminine evening watch at the flick of a wrist.
This year Jaeger-LeCoultre will pursue its presence at the following rounds of Global Champions Tour, adding to the unique experience of the riders and the public and presenting its latest watch collections:
Hamburg, Germany - May 16-20
GCT will take place in Hamburg with the Grand Prix providing the climax to this great equestrian event with record prize money and GCT ranking points on offer to the world-class competitors.
Cannes, France - June 14-16
Only 50 metres from the world famous Croisette, the Global Champions Tour show in Cannes is a special combination of glamour and top-class sport. Close to the Mediterranean port and the superyachts in the bay, it is a very special horse show at the heart of the French Riviera.
Last year Australian Edwina Tops-Alexander, Jaeger-LeCoultre's aficionado, thrilled the spectators when she won for the second year in a row, with her hugely popular horse Itot du Chateau.
Monte-Carlo, Monaco - June 28-30
The magical back drop of Port d'Hercule and the Prince's Palace will again provide one of the most spectacular venues for the Global Champions Tour during the three day feast of world class show jumping.
Estoril, Portugal - July13-14
The wonderful parkland near the centre of Cascais in the Portuguese Riviera is transformed into a truly special equestrian stage for two days of top show jumping competition.
Chantilly, France - July 20-22
GCT Chantilly is played out against the exquisite Chateau de Chantilly and the beautiful Grand Stables, built in the 18thcentury by the grandson of Louis XIV.
Valkenswaard, Netherlands - August 17-19
The superb facilities created by GCT founder and president Jan Tops have reached new heights each year since the first International Concours Valkenswaard 19 years ago. This year's GCT Valkenswaard at the Stal Tops private equestrian estate will take place from August 17-19.
Lausanne, Switzerland - September 14-16
Lausanne's unique and beautiful location on the shores of Lake Geneva is a perfect complement to the stunning destinations on the prestigious Global Champions Tour. Switzerland has a proud history of show jumping with internationally acclaimed riders. Jaeger-LeCoultre has become the official partner and time-keeper of Grand Prix de Lausanne.
Vienna, Austria - September 21-23
Vienna, famously home to some of the world's greatest composers, will host GCT for the first time in 2012 in September where the spectators will be thrilled by show jumping in the magnificent City Hall square (Rathausplatz).
Abu Dhabi, UAE - November 22-24
Global Champions Tour heads to the Arabian Gulf for the final round of 2012 Season. For the second year the Al Forsan International Sports Resort will host this prestigious climax to the season where Jaeger-LeCoultre will offer a legendary Atmos clock with a special engraving to the GCT winner.

I work for the National Park Service at Weir Farm national Historic Site and have ordered boots many times for myself and seasonal staff. We are definitely loyal customers and find the online ordering very efficient. Today when I interacted with a real person, the service was excellent. Thank you."
