“Digital photography never looked so analog. The Hipstamatic brings back the look, feel, unpredictable beauty, and fun of plastic toy cameras of the past! The Hipstamatic keeps the quirks of shooting old school but gives you the ability to swap lenses, film, and flash settings all with the swipe of a finger.” – Hipstamatic

Hipstamatic is a cool vintage camera iPhone app. It turns any iPhone or Ipod Touch into an instant art making machine. This app is definitely made to bring back the obsolete analog cameras (Lomography and Polaroid instant cameras) and create surprising photos with their very own look and unique character. The base model can be downloaded for $1.99 and Hipstapaks start at $.99.

Hipstamatic is also included in Time Magazine’s “50 Best iPhone Apps 2011” under Music & Photography. Its features are as follows:

• Swap lenses, flashes, and films for hundreds of different effects
• Mod out your camera at the Hipstamart
• Instantly share your best prints to Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and Tumblr
• Enter monthly photo contests to win amazing prizes
• Order real analog prints delivered to your door, right from the app

I simply love this app because even if I’m not a graphics wiz who excels in Photoshop, I can easily create photo effects like vignettes, blurring, over saturation and more in no time. Fun part is, I get to mix and match lenses, films, and flashes. I can also select a random effect by shaking my equipment.

Soho Hipstapak contains my fave “Mr. Bling” camera case and “Chunky” lens.

I missed some previous limited edition Hipstapaks. I wish they could make them available again, like this one.

The Nike Sportwear is a FreePak!

This is how the Hipstamatic App icon looks on my Ipod Touch. A few more great (and free!) camera apps like Instagram and Leme Cam will be featured soon.
