On another tip from Justin, I took another leap of faith and actually spent money again on an iPhone app. Now after the less-than-satisfying experience with NightCamera, I was a bit hesitant to try QuadCamera from the same company. But I only hesitated for about 2 seconds, ’cause the description and sample photos were so intriguing.

I think it was long about THE FIRST IMAGE that I took with QuadCamera that I decided it was well work the $1.99. The app uses the iPhone camera and takes 4-8 photos in sequence and makes a grid-like single image out of all the images. It’s part of the ToyCamera line of iPhone apps from Takayuki Fukatsu You can customize how many images you take and the interval at which you take them. The app also applies a Holga-ish vignette and desaturation to each image.

The first few images I shot, I used the default interval between images, which is pretty fast. Moving subjects or moving the camera helps in this case.

Then, I tried slowing down the interval and shooting photos that when combined would appear like they were stitched together.

Ah, but wait! There’s more. Head to Fukatsu’s website and you can download the QuadAnimator. After loading an image taken with QuadCamera, it makes it into an animated gif.

This is going to be a fun app. Thanks Justin for the tip.

    The animator is very cool, thanks for posting that!

  2. Pablo says:

    cool. Too bad the animator is only for photos taken with the app. Maybe I’ll save up two dollars from my next few paychecks and buy it.

    Looks like Pablo is WAY over-paid.
