Hipstamatic

Jan 6, 2010 hipstamatic, iPhone photography, miscellaneous, photography, reviews, tech stuff

iPhone owners and Toy Camera fans, here’s a new reason to celebrate: Synthetic Corp’s new Hipstamatic application. Bringing back the look, feel, fun and unpredictability of the old school fantastic plastic machines, Hipstamatic merges the digital world of photography with the analogous realm of capturing images. And to make things more fun, with the swipe of a finger, you can even change your lenses, add gel filters for your flash and experiment with your film of choice… and get instant results.

Here are a few samples I took today.

[Lens: Lucifer VI | Film: BlacKeys B+W | Flash: RedEye Gel]

For $1.99, this application is a steal. You get a starter pack of the John S Lens, the Jimmy Lens, the Standard Flash, Ina’s 1969 Film, and Kodot Verichrome Film. And for an additional $0.99, you can purchase some of the booster packs which contain more lenses, flashes and film.

All in all, you spend less than $5.00 for a kick-ass camera application with an old-school feel in this digital age. I would definitely recommend this app for photography fans.

Quad Camera

Because my previous application for a multi-shot, toy-camera (Molopix) has not been able to satisfy Apple’s application submission policy, I have been without one of my favorite iPhone applications for more than 4 months. As a result, I had to look elsewhere to get my photo-fun satisfaction. And I found it with Quad Camera.

Here’s a sample shot.

Type Drawing

Jun 8, 2009 miscellaneous, tech stuff

My cousin Danni is the Devil… at least when it comes to iPhone applications. Every time she whips out her iPhone, she tempts me with new apps to download. Thankfully, they are of the 99¢ value; not too heavy on the thinning wallet.

Yesterday, she introduced me to Type Drawing — a typography based iPhone application with lots of fun filled uses.

If you’re a fan of typography, this app may just be for you. Have fun creating your messages, create drawings using the font and do a hundred other stuff with it.

At the moment, the application offers a limited number of fonts, and a handful of backgrounds, but this should change, come more updates from the developers.

You can even take photos and add your message, as you see fit.

Molo Action Sampling

Feb 23, 2009 events, molo, photography, tech stuff

I just recently purchased an iPhone — something I have been lusting after for some time. Instantly, I fell in love with the phone. The functionality is seemless and the possibilities with this phone seem infinite. I can’t even begin to describe how convenient everything has become.

But enough on the virtues of the iPhone… as owners can easily attest to this, and haters can just keep on naysaying.

One of the more interesting applications I came across (and purchased) is Molo. Basically, it works like a Holga or Lomo Action sampler… but on a digital level, in camera.

Simply choose the type of photo output you want, click on the diagram and take a shot… and the software will do the rest for you.

Here are a few sample shots I took over the weekend:
