The fun of toy cameras is in the light leaks, deceptive viewfinder, over saturated (or muted) colors and the whole unpredictability of it all. I’ve got a Holga and a few throw-aways that I enjoy using, but they aren’t always with me. My iPhone is, however. If only it could mimic those cameras.
Hipstamatic comes very close. I spent this morning shooting with it, playing with the included lenses, films and flashes, with pleasing results. Check out the photos below for a sample.
A full review is coming next week.
Always happy to have another fanatic onboard.
