NOMO CAM - Point and Shoot

Nomo Cam has become my goto camera app for capturing memories. I’ve always loved the film/analog look and even got into the film hobby for many years. But the cost of film, rarity of my favorite stocks, and ballooning prices for vintage glass and camera bodies is very discouraging. Not to mention the bulk of carrying a separate dedicated camera, lens, film rolls, and accessories makes shooting film inconvenient for me. This app has inspired me to get back into photography in the most convenient way, using the camera that’s always in my pocket. When I first downloaded the app there wasn’t much of a selection of cameras and styles but the Nomo team just keep adding more and more. My favorites so far being Aerochrome and the super 8 video style! I don’t know how they got the style of aerochrome so close the real thing but it’s quite impeccable. As for the super 8 video style I have been emulating super 8 with Filmic Pro and post editing in FCPX to get the style I want. But now it’s just a quick tap in Nomo Cam, super 8 is now a breeze for me to shoot! The only suggestion I have, that I hope is coming eventually, is to make a custom camera style. One where the user can pick their camera body and the film they want to use with it. Custom lenses seem like a difficult variable to throw in the mix so I wouldn’t be disappointed if we never see that feature. However, at least having custom bodies and a choice of films would make this app the perfect substitute for shooting film! Keep up the wonderful work team Nomo!

I've gone through many Polaroid wannabe apps, but this is way beyond any of the ones I've ever used. I love how it's realistic and the UI is so simple yet stunning. The developer is a genius! Other Polaroid apps it would just be the Polaroid frame around a picture, but this app's camera beautifully captures all the small details of what makes a Polaroid photo and Polaroid. I have a physical Polaroid and I've always loved the effects of it and how raw the photos developed. Now I finally get to do that in an app that it so worth paying the membership for! It's only $1.71/month?!?! AND they're releasing a new camera every two weeks. You don't have to buy the membership though. You can also pay $1 for each camera, but I believe the membership comes with exclusive features. So excited! With all these new cameras coming out I hope the creator doesn't stray away from the uniqueness and quality of each camera, because each one brings a special element that the others don't have. I love my NOMO!
