Camera Applications For The Iphone

My love for the "extremely hard to text on" Iphone has extended to downloading appz on the Itunes store... I recently downloaded QuadCamera, Camera Genius, and Camera Bag. All three applications serve their purpose quite well, but could be a bit slow at times... Especially Camera Genius.

Camera Genius basically tries to maximize the capability of your camera by adding anti-blur, "touch-anywhere" click, sound-clicking... and a few more seemingly useful features which ironically, I find irrelevant... But if you really analyze the application, it isn't really as useful as you might have thought it would be...

Camera Bag on the other hand is a LOMO application that translates your picture into various formats, such as Helga (which am guessing is the same effect as the Holga camera), Fisheye, Mono, an Instant Camera, and many more... It was actually at first, quite fun and interesting to try out all the settings, but after a few days, it did get tiring... I do see a few uses for a few of the options... Better than Camera Genius, HANDS DOWN!

And lastly, my favorite out of the three, Quad Camera, which takes 4 or 8 shots consecutively to catch everything while it's moving. Really nice... I use it LIKE everyday... And the camera has a whole of set of picture quaity effects such as Dull, Vivid Color, Grayscale, etc.... The only downfall to this camera is that, since at time's the pictures are taken quite fast, you end up with a few blurry pics...

Here are a few samples... I used the 4x1 format, but they have other formats such as 2x2 or 8x1 or 4x2. I strongly recommend this to anyone who'd like to make the most out of their Iphone's Camera...

While waiting for mass to start...

On the stair master... The Controls...

Stuck in traffic... Dull Effect...

Vivid... 1 minute interval of pics...
