Out of curiosity, did you do any edits to these? Or are they posted straight out of the camera?

@urszula Thank you! :smiling_face:
@brendxn They are taken and posted straight from the stock camera app. At first, I thought about sideloading a third-party camera/editor but then decided against it because I discovered that I like the feel of natural photos. And when I really want to edit and play with settings, I’ll do it at my computer.

interestingly this i think fits perfectly (intentionally or not) into some of the purpose of the phone, which is to get away from, not re-enforce, addictive technology design.

the usual camera apps are made for fast shooting, fast review, fast editing and publishing to feed the instant gratification / social media design loop

the nature of the eink screen forces you to actually stop, frame your picture, take the shot then… wait, and review your photos later on a computer. really slows down the process like you said not unlike a film camera in some ways, and really makes the whole process more intentional i think .

Just an interesting discovery, I took a photo of a document and tried to zoom in to see the details. Above 200% zoom, I cannot pan the view all the way to the edges, so I cannot see the content on the sides. :confused:

A blurry goat, took it while walking by. Quality is bad but the memory of running in to this fellow is at least captured :smiley:

I now only use the Mudita camera app and am absolutely satisfied with the results. That’s all you need for a few snapshots on the go.

yeah I am totaly with you. I like the idea of a quick snapshot. For everything else I have camera and can make more intentional pictures.

Some pictures I took on my business trip. It was very rainy but I still like how they turned out.

Also, I accidentally used the flash when I took a picture of my food and ended up with some retro vibes :grin:

If you are on Windows, you can get there by accessing the phone through your file system. Another user posted a guide on how it works with Macs here: Customer support thread (all questions welcome) - #154 by denguefeber
