LOVE THIS APP! But some suggestions tho...
I totally love this app as it brings back much nostalgia to the iPhone cam. A tad pricey considering its current limitations, however I would love to see a few things added into the updates to make it more worthy of the price tag:
1) Custom titles - I had an old Sharp camcorder that let you create custom titles which was handy at times.
2) Zoom sound - Add a sound effect for the cameras zoom feature like you used to hear when it zoomed in and out.
3) Static control - Would be nice to set how much static is happening, not just by turning the intensity up or down by camera movement.
4) Date&Time on/off - When filming it would be great to be able to hit a button that turns off the Date&Time at some point so its not on during the entire recording.
5) Screen/Tracking distortion - I like how sometimes you see the bottom of the frame distort when filming, just like when youd adjust the tracking setting on a VCR, but it would be great to control the intensity of that too when filming with this app.
6) Flash/Light support - For night or low light use, it would be fantastic to be able to hit a button that turns on the iPhone flash to use as a camcorder light.
7) Night vision - I first saw this used on a Sony camcorder back in the day, and it comes in handy at night if you dont want to turn on the actual light.
8) Rear screen view - Would be cool to have the option of capturing your footage as how the camera person would see it on an old camcorder preview screen back in the day. So youd see the red REC in the upper left corner, a full or low battery icon (which you can set full/partial or low battery) in the upper right corner with a timer counting upward, and a frame showing where to keep subjects within, all of which you can toggle on or off at will.
9) Video import - would be super cool to be able to import your existing videos into the app to process.
10) Front camera - For selfies, being able to use the phones front camera would be great. True the output quality wont be super high until apple upgrades it, but its VHS we are filming so no big deal really.
Other than that solid app! Cant wait to see how it updates down the road.
