I-1 Camera

Impossible Project

About this app

The I-1 App has been created especially for use with the Impossible I-1 Analog Instant Camera. It lets you experience the full range of what your I-1 can do. Use the App to access useful tools like the remote trigger. Or try creative photographic techniques to add interesting effects to your images. You can also take full photographic control of your exposures with the App’s manual features.

The latest release features a new and improved light meter, which acts as a guide for adjusting Manual Mode settings. The I-1 now uses your smartphone's display to review the light in a scene before shooting, so you can make beautiful, well-lit photos in a wide variety of conditions - it's a level of control and photographic precision which sets the I-1 apart from any other instant camera, and makes it the ideal choice for a studio setting.


--FEATURES--

*Remote Trigger:*

Turn your phone into a remote for your camera, so you can shoot pictures from a distance. Use the remote trigger to take selfies or group shots without the awkward angles, or to be part of the scene in a landscape shot.


*Manual Mode:*

Take control over aperture, shutter speed, ring flash strength and focus. Experiment with tools that experienced photographers use on a daily basis to completely transform the mood of their images.


*Self Timer:*

Use the self timer to take a photo with the I-1 after a 5, 10 or 20 second delay. You don’t have to hold the camera when shooting, so you can avoid shakiness and capture the action more easily.


*Double Exposure:*

Superimpose two images on a single piece of instant film. Experiment by combining different types of images to see what dreamlike effects and textures you can produce.


*Noise Trigger:*

Trigger a photo by making a loud noise, like a click or a hand clap. Use the noise trigger if you want to keep your hands free at the moment the photo is taken, or if you want to take a photo of something right when it makes a sound.


*Light Paint:*

Use your phone’s flashlight to draw lines and shapes with light on your photos, or to selectively illuminate areas of a darkened scene for a high contrast effect.


*Color Paint:*

Draw waves of colored light onto your images before they develop. Pick a color from your phone’s screen and move it in front of the lens as the camera prepares the photo.


*Scanner:*

The I-1 App makes it quick and easy to get a digital scan of your analog photo. All you have to do is take a picture of your instant photo with your phone, then select the corners of the image frame to crop and scan it, ready to be saved or shared online.

Ratings and reviews

So the app "works" I can open it and select stuff, but the 2 most useful on app features (manual and double exposure) are non-functional. Manual gives a live view from the phone but the settings cant be changed. The real bad one is the double exposure where on the first exposure the camera ejects the entire shot and the app is unable to progress to the second exposure Overall I'm disappointed in the app and the camera, and quite honestly I'm pissed off after effectively blowing two packs

It crashes each time I take a picture in manual, but honestly not that big-a-deal it pairs fairly reliably and quick, btw you need to allow every permission because otherwise it won't pair lol.

Unfortunately this app doesn't use my phones camera in manual mode which is limiting. Otherwise, it's a great app. I look forward to this issue being addressed, then I'll definitely up the rating.
