one man with a camera
I've just started playing with the camera apps available for the android cameras again. Have been shooting some shots on the Retro Camera and Vignette which are actually my favourite camera apps.
Today i decided to try a new app because it had a really nice name. This app is called "one man with a camera". Great name,yeah? :) I kind of like this app because it offered more Lomo options and i could also easily pick the cross processing option with the camera. It's not a very complex app with a gazillion options but what it does give for free does work pretty well.
The Diana and other multiple exposure camera need more work though. There should be a clearer indication when the other exposures are being taken. I had to guess. Maybe there was a audio indication but since i prefer to shoot silent, i think there should be a visual indication.
The basic camera for mobile phones have gotten to quite decent but because of the limitations of the lens on these mobile phones you can't get super duper good quality even if you push resolutions to 12megapxels.
That said, the best part of mobile phone photography is the capacity for experimentation. Plastic camera, range finder cameras, in camera tricks, post processing etc used to be firmly in the domain of the pro photographer or the enthusiast. But the arrival of camera apps on mobile phones have introduced many to the joys of photography. Not just the snap shot variety but the out of the box variety.
Of course many people who use these apps don't fully understand how it works and often just cycle through the different cameras, apps, processing etc but i don't believe in elitism.
Photography is not just for the arty farty. It is, in my opinion, meant to be fun and a means of documentation of one's life and an expression of one's emotions, thoughts and the way one sees the world. I like camera apps on mobile phones. I like it that people shoot much much more these days and that they don't just mess with the basic camera but also that they try out all the other fun stuff available to them. :)
K... I have to go... Mobile blogging this and time to run. Will go thru this post later to fix grammar etc when i have more time. Cheers. :)
