iPhone photography
Yeah, it’s a surging trend (2010). Despite any initial troubles & problems, the new iPhone v4 has a greatly improved camera: super fast shutter, quick start and stop, improved resolution, camera mode, and flippable (therefore making the ladies’ compact mirror now obsolete).

Tools, apps and add-ons
Phil Coffman is a great iPhone photographer and he shares information on app combos and techniques in this tography/iphone-photography/”>blog entry.
Hipstamatic is a clever app that makes your iPhone camera work like the best (and cheapest) of the cheap plastic medium-format film cameras of the past. It’s clever because it doesn’t stop at the $1.99 app, but you can buy add-on lenses and film packs for more variations and effects. The makers of the app regularly run a reader-submitted contest, with a gallery for the winners, but I’ll tell ya: best Hipstamatic pics I’ve seen are right on tos/jkonrath/sets/72157624389355400/with/4759014572/”>Jon Konrath’s Flickr photostream. Awesome!
