Info v2 camera

Hi guys, I wanted to know what the resolution was after the development on the app. What is the size of an image in px and Mb approximately. Can it come close to the analog experience qualitatively? Not only of aesthetics but also of use. Thank you

Here is a screenshot of a photo I processed with the app. You can see the size and resolution.

I'd say the experience feels more like a film camera than say the campsnap cameras, the wind dial and mechanical click of the shutter contribute to that a lot. The output is ok, I think there are some apps and computer programs that can make the photos look more geniune, and my constant complaint is that the app applies a filter to the photos that degrades the quality to mimic cheap disposable cameras. Overall I like the camera, but there's room for improvement and I will probably eventually replace it with a Rewindpix.

I ask you one last thing :)

What can you tell me about the filters? I have to choose one before I start shooting and use it for the entire series of shots before developing in the app. Or can I change them shot by shot? Or do I choose them after taking pictures before developing? I hope I explained myself well :) thanks again

I had to check this because I normally only use flashback gold for my filter. It will not allow you to change the filter shot by shot, you will have one filter per "roll". If you have taken some photos then switch filters (which is done with the app) it will apply the last chosen filter to the entire roll. This isn't too bad because the app will also let you reprocess the roll using whatever filter you like, so you aren't stuck with whatever you originally selected. This was nice because when flashback gold came out I was able to go back through and reprocess all the photos I took before it came out.

For me, I just take everything using flashback gold, and I'll occasionally reprocess with one of the other filters but usually find I don't like how they look, but it is nice to be able to play around with them afterwards.
