I am what I like to call an iPhoneographer – meaning that I take the majority of my photos with my iPhone.
Welcome to the 21 century, am I right?
You should see the photo editing apps on my iPhone – it seems like I am always finding new ones! When I take photos with my DSLR, I find myself wishing that I had taken them with my iPhone so that I can use my apps on the photos before posting them!
I just starting using PinCam, a new free photo and video app available in the iTunes store.
I’ve been playing around with the Pincam photo and video editing app and it’s pretty cool! You can just pin to select different moments in a recording, and leave the rest to Pincam. What I love about PinCam is that you don’t have to sit and wait and hope that you are able to catch something in a photo, you can just start recording and then pin the photo-worthy moment after it happens!
Because let’s face it, we all know how slow the iPhone camera can be when that perfect photo opp presents itself! I usually end up missing the opportunity while waiting for the camera to open or to snap the picture.
The Pincam app saves you time and efforts without compromising the quality of your videos and you will get your very own highlight reel in just a few easy steps! You can also edit all of those videos that you already have saved on your phone!
Earlier this year, I was taking a video of the neighbor’s dog climbing our fence and I couldn’t get a single frame in a photo – boy I wish I had known about this app back then!
Once you have your photos selected from the video, you can play around with the fun Pincam app filter effects!
- Ovid, Blue Vintage, Cotton, Somber, Cocktail, Car Wash
- Locomotive, Hangover, Mondrian, Black Olive, Gold Rush
- Fantasy, Milkiss, Chinese Ink, Shiny, Vanilla Sky
- Nostalgia, Spotlight, Aged, Snowflake
Pincam App Features
- Edit as you record
- 20 free filters to choose from
- Video and Audio recording
- Instant sharing to Facebook, Youtube and email
- Edit existing videos
- Simple and fast User Interface
- Location tag
- Portrait and Landscape mode
The Pincam app allows you to share directly from the app to all of your favorite social media accounts: Facebook, Twitter and via email! Sounds like fun, right?
One thing I really like about the app is that once you save your videos and photos to the Pincam gallery, it saves them with the date and location information right there! Most of the apps that I have used in the past don’t include the time or date information so I just kind of have to figure out when and where they were taken!
I love that Pincam includes that info!
The best part of the Pincam video and photo editing app? IT IS FREE! It is compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad and requires iOS 5.0 or later.
You can download the Pincam app for iPhone here or through iTunes on your iPhone!
