Top iPhography Apps of 2008
With 2008 coming to a close I though it was about time to announce our Top iPhography Apps of 2008.
Of course for anyone to say one app is better than another is purely subjective based upon the persons wishes for their iPhography. As well as the fact that we haven’t had a chance to test all of the apps yet.
So I thought the easiest way to announce them was to simply show you a pic of my...

This wide angle fisheye lens is just perfect for when there just isn’t enough space on that crowded subway train to Shibuya. Also is available in a 2x tele when the park bench is a little to far & standard 0.67X + Super Marco wide angle for those detailed pics that you can’t wait to...
World's first xenon flash attachment for iPhone
Snapture have released the world’s first xenon flash attachment for an iPhone but comes with 2 caveats 1. It’s not actually in production & 2 you need to jailbreak your iPhone to use it.
See the Gizmodo Review
What we’d like to see here at iPhography.com is to add to the SnaptureFlash a screw thread to attach micro tripods. A small hole / loop to attach a lanyard so that...

Review - iPhone Photography Awards
The iPhone Photography Awards ( IPPA ) was launched in February of 2008 & appears to be an annual event to showcase iPhographers from around the world. It’s an online competition where iPhographers compete for the kudos of being the best iPhographer. There was mention in their press release of a 20” iMac as a prize but no information has been posted on the site about whether the...

Can You Make Money from Your iPhone Photos? →
Kudos
I just wanted to give extra kudos to Steadycam (see review) because I went out on friday night & managed to get some shots that normally would have come out quite unusable. If you haven’t tried it yet, give it a go. It’s quick & simple & didn’t interrupt the flow of the night to much.

App Review - Photogene 1.62
Updated with corrections
Photogene is one of my most used editors on the iPhone, so i’ll just get straight to it’s features.
1. Welcome screen. The continue last session option is a great feature if you get interrupted & want to come back to it 2. A well documented information page with links to contact them or visit their website has also been included
3. The range...
Wish
I wish the makers of Poladroid port their app to the iPhone. CameraBag does a great job but as you will see below Poladroids are better. Poladroid would need to include the option to speed up the development time to save battery life. For novelty you could have a setting that allows you to leave on the slow developing & you can “shake it like a Polaroid” to see it develop. It’s...
App Review - iBlur 1.0
I’ll make this brief. Heres how you blur an iPhograph. Just follow these seven steps
Step 1. First wait screen with big hand that says “Stop, wait & hi 5 me before we start this journey”
Step 2. At the second wait screen select if you want an existing iPhograph from your library or to take an iPhograph
Step 3. Take iPhograph
Step 4. The evil “hey we...
About my iPhography
The irony is that since I started this site for iPhography I haven’t had much time to do it, or should I say that most of the iPhographs would be of me at my slowly dying emac in my bathrobe eating noodles & wouldn’t be of much worth capturing for you.
(Pseudo-iPhograph because it was taken with iPhone but edited in Photoshop)
I’d have to say that I’m really happy...

Tip - SIZE IS IMPORTANT!
Something I have recently discovered but you may not know could save you from some frustration. Images in the Camera Roll taken with the camera are saved at 1600 x 1200 but the images in your library that have been synced from your computer are 640 x 480 or smaller depending on the aspect ratio.
A good way to test this is if you have Photogene installed, open an image from the camera roll &...
App Review - SteadyCam 1.0
This will be a quick review because in short it’s a simple app that does what it says.
SteadyCam takes an iPhograph when the accelerometer detects the iPhone being held steady so as to not introduce any blur
Sorry my sample shots are boring, I’ll try to get some night examples soon.
First screen - with a simple button at the bottom. It doesn’t make you wait through a startup...

Prediction
“Timelaps / Stop motion / Stop Light Etc”
To manually or Automatically take a series of images then assemble into an animated gif & saved to the library. If this is not possible to store animated gifs in the library, they could be stored in the app & emailed to yourself or someone else. Manual option of taking images could allow you to create a stop motion animated gif. You would be able...
