The Mr. Burns figure I pray to every morning for good fortune.

Sorry, no light at my place, plus it's raining like crazy right now so I can't even open the window for natural light. Just wanted to share my deity with you guys :-P

First is the original, taken indoors with Manual app - ISO 200 Shutter 1/20. The other two are just cincai edits with Enlight and Filters.

Plus you have to take sensor size into account. Small sensors really can't give you DOF as shallow as those from dedicated cameras with larger sensors.

If I'm in a rush and there's enough light about, I just swipe to the stock camera from the lock screen. If I have time, I prefer an app like Manual or ProCam 3 that allows a bit more control over ISO and shutter speed, and then I process with Enlight, Pixelmator and some other apps. I don't trust those "live filter" types of apps that show the effect before taking the photo because the end result is usually overprocessed. If you're looking for a free solution, I think the best combo would be the stock camera app + VSCO.

Stock camera app is the camera that comes inclded in iOS. VSCO is an app, not a filter. It's free, although you still need to make in-app purchases for certain filter packs. I'm not 100% certain how many filters are free and how many are IAP, since I don't use it myself. Most of my apps are paid.

Here's a screenshot of my "imaging & misc" screen. Only the last 6 icons are not photo/art related. From the rest, search for them in the app store and double check with the icons to make sure it's the right one. Then read the description to know if it's worth your money or not.
