Dramatically enhance your photos using the many classic camera and film simulations in CameraBag. It's like having a dozen unique cameras all in one app!
CameraBag focuses on emulating styles and processes from some of the most interesting cameras of the past to enhance the mood of an image, and the results are stunning.
The cameras included in CameraBag are:
"Helga" - Square-format toy camera with washed-out highlights and old-school vignetting.
"Colorcross" - Hazy, chemical color-swapping straight from the darkroom.
"Instant" - No need to shake this instant-developing film.
"Magazine" - Rich tones for glossy pages.
"1974" - Your father's camera: faded, tinted, and hip.
"Lolo" - Shoot from the hip and take life as it comes with vibrant, colorful shots.
"Plastic" - Sweet honey tones like these could only come from the cheapest of cameras.
"Cinema" - Dramatic, moody coloring with a widescreen aspect ratio.
"Silver" - From the earliest days of photography, when taking a shot was a much larger production than it is now.
"1962" - Dynamic, high-contrast black and white from the photojournalism of a bygone era.
"Mono" - Smooth, refined, balanced black and white.
"Infrared" - Simulation of the popular landscape photography technique.
"Fisheye" - Go ahead, get too close to the lens.
"Original" - Just in case you got it right the first time.
To use CameraBag simply:
1. Select. Take a new photo from inside the app(iPhone only) or choose one from your library (iPhone or iPod Touch).
2. Filter. Quickly swipe between CameraBag's cameras to view your photo in the various styles.
3. Save. You can save the same photo in multiple styles to the Camera Roll.

Great User Tips!!!   Here are a few tips to get even more out of CameraBag. Start doubling up on the filters! Choose a filter and save the photo. Open it again from the iPhone's camera roll and choose a second filter.- Sepiatone. Save first in 1963 (black & white), then save it in 1974.- Black & White Vignette. Save first in Helga, then in 1963.- Warm Vintage. Save first in 1974, then in Lolo.- Century Old. Save first in 1974, then in Helga.- Super Helga. Save it twice in Helga for a more intense light burn.Experiment with some of your own combinations. Depending on the colors in your photos, you can come up with some really unique visuals!I'm just a casual user. I've never been much into cameraphone cameras but CameraBag is allowing me to create images that I'm more likely to share with others. I look forward to the new filters when they come and seeing what other cool combos I can come up with! - CameraBag review by CampSteve
Name changed to protect the innocent? Great simulations.   The "Helga" tool is to mimic the artfully imperfect vignetting/saturation/variable focus that was common with the plastic lensed medium-format camera branded as Holga which was marketed as an extremely affordable camera to the Chinese in the 1980s. The "Lolo" tool is to mimic the Lomo LC-A a Russian camera known for its blown out colors and sometimes artful, sometimes atrocious blur from long exposures. I'm sure the names were changed to avoid problems with lomography.comWhile color film was certainly around in 1962, my family certainly didn't use it much, this "1962" setting does a good job of increasing contrast when it strips the color. The "1974" setting makes it look like a print was made 30+ years ago and then hung on the wall at your grandma's house. Fun app, I'll probably use it more when I upgrade from my iPod Touch to a iPhone 3G, most of the photos in my iPhoto library are taken with vintage/weird film cameras so it will be nice to un-sterilize the photos I take with my iPhone. - CameraBag review by invisible_touch
Slick!   This is great because I totally hate the iPhone camera, and I feel like I can actually share some pix washed through Camerabag! I would also be very interested to see a (slight) fisheye effect. And possibly an infrared.
I like that there are no level adjustments etc. I just want to make an "insta-cool" image. I do enough photo editing on Lightroom for my business; the last thing I want to do is fully edit my iPhone photos.
Great job! I am REALLY looking forward to seeing new effects roll in with future updates. :) - CameraBag review by 2finsup
Perfect for the iPhone Camera   This app takes any and all flaws of the iPhone camera and makes them assets. Any focus issues, lint or grease on the lens, waviness (jello effect) due to subjects in motion, low light graniness, all look good with one of the many camera effects simulators in CameraBag. Basically, the output looks as though you MEANT to take the rough shot that you did. I use CameraBag as my main camera app, and upload pictures on the go using the Facebook App. The ability to crop and resample images, in addition to the camera effects makes the pictures look really retro when posted. Especially if you just like to take pictures of things you see on a daily basis, CameraBag makes these shots interesting for others to look at. The developers of CameraBag have also been very good at providing updates for performance and even adding new cameras! - CameraBag review by DotMacDayOne
Great App!   I love this app. And I hate fake reviews! Know that this is not one. It seems a little chuggy not sure if thats cause I'm shooting at max image size or what but I shoot some concert images tonight and they were great! Just joined a group on flickr that shares these images. you should too. have fun! - CameraBag review by newspin44
Great App!!!   Just bought it. I read reviews before I purchased it and I had mixed feelings on buying it. This is a real review. Buy it. I bought face melter and was looking for something like this it's great. If it's a little slow change the settings it works great. - CameraBag review by Deeznutzz
Great for lomo lovers who don't mind digital.   If you like lomos and toy cameras then you have already probably downloaded this app. Personally I love this app and for $5 it was an easy choice. Great results for a pseudo digi lomo. - CameraBag review by morsp
Worth it   Lots of fun and easy to use. Gives pictures more emotion. Promised updates. 5 stars. - CameraBag review by Brian Einfeldt
One touch fix ups   I use photogene too and I like them both. I really like the one touch fix up you can use to make your underexposed and "lacking" photos look nice. I look forward to more filters in an update. I dont want to think to hard about 2 megapixel photos and camera bag allows them to just look cool with little thought. Thanks - CameraBag review by F15Crypt
Love it   I typically only get the free apps but this app was well worth the money, and it's on sale! Camerabag makes an ordinary plain photo look outstanding. I love the different filters and how they drastically make any photo look more artistic. I can't wait to see the updates and what new filters there will be! - CameraBag review by bau3r
I like it   Slick interface, interesting and pleasing effects. No crashes or other problems. Fun app and one I'll likely use regularly. - CameraBag review by Enoch Soames
I love it!   This is by far the quickest, easiest way I've found to get interesting photos out of my iPhone camera. I love the different effects, and I'm very pleasantly surprised at the results. Instant character. - CameraBag review by New Hasselhoff
Retro in your hand   If your familar with these types of cameras you'll love it. Well done can't wait to see what gets added. - CameraBag review by Garyo
New-found Fun...   I've rediscovered the camera on my phone due to this app. I've read reviews saying that using photoshop is better than this (of course it is, it's a powerful photo editing tool for a desktop/laptop), but to be honest I don't want to take the time to jump on my computer to play with effects, saturation, contrast and the like on a photo I snapped with my phone. If you want full featured software, go with photoshop, but if you want fun filters on the fly to add a little creativity to an otherwise lackluster phone camera, then I wholly recommend camerabag.
Sidenote:
For better photo framing (instead of the annoying gray bars over the frame in camerabag) use the default iPhone camera, then open this app to use the filters.
10/30/08:
It was a good effort, but the fisheye filter is a little disappointing. If it were full framed with the rounded effect, then it might be better, but as it stands it makes the photo look like a ball bearing. Even with this gripe, I still recommend this app. - CameraBag review by Mandrake916
Great App   This ius a great application! Love it and use it all the time! - CameraBag review by Onkel Art
I love this thing!!   You can take easy, nice, fun, camera shots with this! Over the past couple weeks I have bought probobly over 100 apps. But I must say this is my most defienatly favorite one! I'm in a photojournalisim class this semester and this app is really helping me [: - CameraBag review by mowjilladelamaggie
My favorite iPhone app   CameraBag takes the iPhone camera to a whole new level. I use it on every photo I take, and it consistently makes them better. A steal at $2.99! - CameraBag review by kldonegan
Great App and Keeps Getting Better   This app does exactly what it says. I have not been prone to more than a couple of crashes and I use this all the time. Developers also have been churning out updates based on feedback. I love this app. - CameraBag review by nam11
Freakin Great   I love this little app - it gets better with every release - please please PLEASE include the ability to email in future release!! I Flickr everything from camera bag, but I have to switch applications to make this possible... It's almost perfect, we just need that option :) - CameraBag review by Mosscow
