Camera/TiltShiftGen/PhotoForge on iPhoneclick on thumbnail to view larger image
Paper pipe robots. More fun with the iPhone, this time to test out the "TiltShiftGen" app. This app attempts to simulate the optical effect of a Toy Camera (film Box Camera). There are some interesting filters which can be applied such as the shallow depth of field and a border vignette. There's also another app called the "ToyCamera" which has more presets for color tinting but doesn't allow for much control over the bluring or vignette. In this case I would prefer to use "TiltShiftGen" and adjust the colors in "PhotoForge". I know this all sounds horrible considering I have a SLR camera which I enjoy using, but considering the fact that I'm using an iPhone 3GS I'm really interested in what the hardware along with the apps can do as a whole.

This is an excellent pic Jimmy. Remember that every piece of technology carries with it its own aesthetic and meaning. Just because we have modern lithography it doesn't mean we need to abandon intaglio or wood block printing. The iPhone is becoming its own media and there is a photographer (I will find his name) that has abandoned his own large format professional camera in order to work entirely on his iphone. He exhibits around the word the photos he takes on hi phone.
