Application name: Classic Cam
Author: fieldofcows

Description: Classic Cam is a camera app that automatically "develops" photos to give them a "retro" look, much the same as those old 70's prints you have in your photo album.

The application replicates the look of the back of an instamatic camera (with the addition of a not-so-retro LCD preview panel!) and uses the shutter button to take photos. When a photo is taken, a number of different configurable filters are applied automatically to the photo to create a photo that looks like an old print.

The application is fully functional but is a work-in-progress and will continue to be developed based on user feedback and comments

Some of Classic Cam's features:
• User interface styled like an old instamatic camera
• Flash can be set to auto, on or off
• Focus can be automatic or fixed to infinity
• Settings can be adjusted for different lenses, films and processing types.
• Each settings group can be saved as a preset
• Photos are "developed" in the background allowing further photos to be taken during the developing process
• Optionally, the "negatives" (unprocessed photos) are retained so if you don't like the processed output, you can use the original or use Classic Print to apply different settings
