There are hundreds of camera apps on the App Store. I always feel that using the default camera app provides the best results, however some camera apps contain features that I like (burst mode, etc.). I was wondering if apps such as Camera+ and Awesomize have an impact on the quality of photos?
IOS – Are pictures taken by camera apps worse than the default iPhone camera app

The quality should be exactly the same. They both use the same API, so unless Apple applies some proprietary image algorithm on the picture, the source pixels are identical.
However, when those apps use the "burst" mode, then the quality of course will be decreased because they are in effect decreasing the resolution of the image for faster capture.
