Flickr updated its iPhone app today, ushering in a new design and features, including photo filters similar to those the world has fallen in love with over at Instagram. Allow me to walk you through the radically changed Flickr for iPhone app.

Camera mode provides basic tools but more than you get from Instagram. At the top, you can adjust the flash settings, flip between the front- and rear-facing cameras, and show gridlines. A slider along the right edge lets you zoom. After you snap a shot, you can choose from 15 filters. The filters are similar to Instagram's offerings at first blush, although 5 of the 15 are monochromatic.
