Do you take iPhone Photos? Introducing Banana Camera Company 66 Comments

The Video Digest

I had a few announcements about my iPhone apps. If you’re not interested in taking awesome photos with your iPhone or iPod touch, feel free to skip this one. No hard feelings.

You may know that I dabble in iPhone apps. Would you believe all that dabbling actually worked? So, I had to go and make it a real business. How was I supposed to know that people would actually BUY these things? Anyway, from now on, ShakeItPhoto and CrossProcess is now part of Banana Camera Company. I started a new blog at BananaCameraCo.com that will feature users of our apps and show off great shots taken with ShakeItPhoto, CrossProcess and upcoming apps.

Win an iPod Touch
We are running our first photo contest for BananaCameraCo and the winner gets a new iPod Touch! The theme of the contest is “Self portrait”. We already got some really great entries and would love to see a shot from you. Check out the blog for more info on the contest. The deadline is Wednesday night!

What’s New In CrossProcess 1.6/1.7

We also just released a new version of CrossProcess. It features the new “Extreme” filter, full resolution processing and direct uploading to Facebook and Email. People really seem to love it. We have gotten great feedback and a ton of great shots at the Flickr group. Also, if you are a user, we would love it if you left a review.

The future of BananaCameraCo?
Yep, there will be more. We of course have an update planned for ShakeItPhoto. But there will be much more. Many more simple camera apps to make your photos look awesome. Stay tuned to BananaCameraCo.com for much much more simple camera fun.

    Hi
    I have some serious questions:
    1/ Can I use Apple Gift Card in another apple store than apple store us (french apple store, in my case) ?
    2/ Is Alexia single ?

    Lol, why did I know all the comments would be about Alexia?

    But great to see some updates, but I’m really waiting for the shakeit photo app. I do like the Crossprocess, but more as a post-process, since there are dails to fiddle with ;) .

    Is there a quick (no shake) option in the next release?

    thanks and keep up the good work!

      There is a “Faster Shaking” option in the current version that reveals the photo as soon as it’s done processing. (Hint: You don’t HAVE to shake it)

      Thanks for the hint, never noticed that. Still.. i’m even shaking the crossprocess app while processing. Need to stop that.

    At least now we understand why mr geayscalegorilla has to reserve some time to do other stuff than making tuts.

    That’s awesome new guys! I wish you the best with this project! Unfortunatelly I have the old ipod touch (damn!).
    Have you guys thought about doing something like this for the video camara of the iphone? Not sure if the core would support it, but I’d be really awesome!
    take care!

    Hey Nick ! I just want to know if you can post me the link for your iPhone 4 wallpaper ? It looks simple but cool :) Thanks a lot !

    WOW!… I never noticed how big your head is until I had some frame of reference, that being your girl. Jesus Christ I mean it; you really got a big fucking head. What size hat do you wear on that thing? It looks like an orange on a tooth pick. Its a virtual planetoid! It’s got it’s own weather system.

    Now before you go crying yourself to sleep on that HUGE pillow of yours might I suggest a different way of taping yourself with your girl? Just have her sit a tad closer to the cam. Reason why I say this is that I too have one huge noggin and my wife’s head is tiny compared to it just like your girls. So in all family pictures she is always a lil closer towards the camera than I am. Thats all it takes, you’d be surprised.

    I couldn’t even listen to that vlog post. I think I was hypnotized but that big head swaying back and forth.

    Hay nick! Awsome news.. And in other stuff why you don’t use the new embed method that allows vimeo vídeos to work on iDevices? It would be great to read your blog in mi iPad :)

    Well my thoughts were answered incredibly quickly – ‘how long will it take before someone comments on Alexia’s appearance?’

    A whopping 3 comments. It’s a design blog, comment on the article, not the presenter.

      It’s impossible to not comment on the appearance of our hosts: They’re like the ‘golden mean’ but human. I’m sure we all wouldn’t be besotted by appearances if there wasn’t some genius laying beneath.

    Hey Nick, I JUST discovered your site and I can’t wait to eat it all up. I’m a longtime FCP/Avid Editor and I NEED to get me some AE skillz.

    Say, I really like the image of the video camera you use for the above post. I see it has an articulating screen so you can see yourself. What brand and model is it?
