I'm beginning to enjoy all these camera-related apps so much that I don't use the default iPhone camera app anymore. Whenever something catches my fancy and I feel like taking a photo of it, I fire up Camera Bag, Camera Genius or my iPhone's latest app, Lomo Camera. Lomo Camera is similar to Camera Bag for the simple reason that it gives you several options to edit the photos you've taken. Whereas Camera Bag simulates different camera types that became famous through the years, Lomo Camera takes only one of those famous old cameras for a spin — the Lomo LC-A.
The Lomo Camera app is a simple app that gives you only three options. The first is, of course, the camera icon, which if you tap, will give you the familiar iPhone camera interface. Tap on it again to take your shot and then you will be given the option to retake, or if you like the photo you've taken you can use it to apply the different Lomo effects of the app.
These Lomo Effects include - LC-A Normal, RedScale, Black&White, X-Pro, Redscale 2, Fish Eyes, Splitzer and the original shot you took. Simply tap on which effects you like best and then tap on the disc icon to save your photo. Alternatively, you can use existing photos stored in your iPhone's camera roll and apply the different Lomo effects to them.
And that pretty much sums up what the Lomo Camera app can do.
