I tease my "Droid loving" friends every time I get an iOS update. 

I can't remember the last time I heard one of them talk about updating their software... they just get new phones.:)

Many of you will have read my reviews on the Olloclip 3-in-1 Lens and the Schneider Optics iPro Lens System, and some have ... Read more

I am leaning toward purchasing the Olloclip 3-in-1 Lens basically because of the price. In the article above Glyn does a nice head-to-head comparison of two.

This could possibly be exactly what I was looking for... another way to repurpose & share my photos.

I'm also looking for a inexpensive US service that prints photos on a tee shirt. 

Any ideas?

Photo Tips: iOS 5 & The Rule of Thirds
INSTAGRAM | OCTOBER 20, 2011

If you want to create photos that are pleasing to the eye then listen up! There’s a wonderful photography rule of thumb, known ... Read more

My Takeaway: This is something that I always do with Camera+ before I upload my edited photos to Instagram.

It's still cool to have another option though.

Thursday, October 20, 2011

Guess what? I'm having issues with the latest iOS 5 update.

I've noticed that my photos appear blurry & some even appear as black boxes on my camera roll. 

I'm going to use FX Photo Studio as my default camera until this issue is resolved.

The photo above was edited with FX Photo Studio...

One of the reasons why I chose this as my go to camera app was the ability to upload photos to both Instagram & Camera+.

Note: You also can save the photos taken (within the app) to the clipboard for further editing. I'll store them there until my iOS 5 issues are fixed.

What about you? Are you having any issues?

iOS 5 issues resolved!!!

Hands-On Preview of Camera and Photos in iOS 5

Hands-On Preview of Camera and Photos in iOS 5
LIFE IN LOFI: IPHONEOGRAPHY | IPHONE PHOTO NEWS, SHOWCASES, APP REVIEWS | OCTOBER 10, 2011
http://lifeinlofi.com/2011/10/10/hands-on-preview-of-camera-and-photos-in-ios-5/

"The Volume Up button now serves as a shutter release when in Camera. It’s very convenient and very responsive. Having a physical shutter release help the iPhone feel more like a camera and helps to reduce missed shots from a missing the software shutter release onscreen."

My Takeaway: I am notoriously known as someone who will whip out my iPhone while waiting in traffic to snap a quick pic. I can't even begin to tell you many great shots I have missed just because my phone was locked. Hopefully with Wednesday's IOS 5 update that will become a thing of the past.

Apple - Introducing iPhone 4S

Apple will pay $200 for your gently used iPhone 4

http://www.macworld.com/article/162663/2011/10/apple_will_pay_your_200_for_your_gently_used_iphone_4.html

"The Next Web points out, Apple’s Reuse and Recycling Program offers the money in the form of an Apple gift card—useful if you want to turn around and buy the 4S. All you have to do is go to the site, answer a few questions about the phone you’re selling, and receive an estimate on the phone’s resale price. After that, ship the phone to Apple, and receive your gift card shortly after. As of Tuesday afternoon, Apple was still willing to pay $180 for a gently used 16GB iPhone 4, and $200 for the 32GB model."

Hmmm... Hopefully this will be a viable option for me. 

If not, I'm pretty cool with updating to the IOS 5 on Oct 12th.

Apple - Introducing iOS 5 | #iPhone4

Can't wait for this update... but then again it will probably make some of my favorite Apps obsolete. An IOS update is almost like getting a new phone.
