Tiltshift Generator brings easy toy camera effects to the iPhone

Filed under: , ,

I’m not a photographer by any means (although I hear Download Squad’s newest blogger, Sebastian, is!), and the iPhone’s built-in camera isn’t exactly the greatest piece of photography equipment around, but the TiltShift Generator iPhone app doesn’t really care!

This neat little 99-cent app applies cool toy-camera (think ‘dollhouse miniatures’) effects and vignetting to any photo, and makes even the crummiest iPhone photographers look good. It can apply two styles of adjustable blur, some color controls and, of course, those hot-looking dark edges.

We’ve covered ways to fake a tilt-shift effect before on Download Squad – yes, you could just buy a special lens, but software can provide a cheaper approximation – but this is the first on-the-go option I’ve tried. iPhone features include applying effects to photos you’ve already taken, saving new photos you take with the app, and sharing via email or Twitter.

If you’re not sure where to start with tiltshift photos, try shooting a cluster of objects from above – the creator of the app has done some great-looking stuff with houses and parking lots. Even if you’re not too confident in your photographic abilities, shell out a dollar for this app and see what you can do. You might be surprised!
