The fourth in the "ToyCamera" series of iPhone apps developed by Takayuki Fukatsu, QuadCamera uses the device's camera to create multiple images taken moments apart from each other. Similar to the normal iPhone camera, the user sees a single image on the screen, but QuadCamera takes a handful of shots spaced by adjustable time intervals. You can also choose between four and eight serial shots that can be oriented in a line or two parallel rows.
The effect is similar to that of Lomography cameras, only in digital form, but complete with soft focus and slightly overexposed edges. Like Lomography does for film, QuadCamera takes the inferior capabilities of the iPhone camera and adds creative tweaks to increase the fun quotient.
QuadCamera can be purchased at the iPhone App Store for $2. See more sample images after the jump.

By adding another lens to the 3G's camera, Griffin overcomes the lack of a "macro" mode and enables shooting images...
The premise behind the Lomographic Amigos program is simple.

Lomo Amigos alums include Radiohead, Modest Mouse and David Arquette. These beautiful shots above and below were taken by Feature Shoot founder...
Working full-time as an online editor and magazine writer, Melbourne-based Mark Gambino found himself the recipient of numerous after-work events. Finding little to converse about with drunken musicians and statuesque models, the 30-something photography enthusiast started snapping. The result is a candid look at the music festivals, fashion events and VIP parties taking place in Australia. CH recently caught up with Gambino to talk...
In the race for best iPhone recording application, there are over a dozen contestants but few finalists. After surveying a handful, we're placing Griffin's iTalk and Zarboo's SpeakEasy in the winner's circle. While neither application is flawless, both get kudos for interface design, ease of use and file tagging. Ever since I lost my digital recorder, I've resorted to using my iPhone for interviews and...
Taking pinhole photography to a whole new scale, photographer Shaun Irving transformed a delivery trucks into the world's largest mobile camera, the Cameratruck. The resulting prints (see "First Kiss" below) bear the rich anomalies that come from the technique—he says the best images are the ones "where you can't tell where the image ends and the squirreliness begins"—but in a size roughly 3,000 times...
