A Weekend with the Hipstamatic
Over an impromptu Valentine’s run to Vegas this weekend (to check out Cirque du Soleil’s LOVE), I had the pleasure of toying around with the Hipstamatic for hours upon hours across the California desert. The iPhone app lets you toggle between retro films and lenses, and features a hard-to-resist internal store with which to further equip the iPhone’s otherwise lame camera. The result? A lot of sometimes-in-focus, analog-style fun that kept me entertained along the way… and netted the developer more than a 5-fold increase in incremental revenue as a result of my insatiable appetite for new lenses, films and flashes.
Here’s an awesome gallery of other Hipstamatic devotees on Flickr.
