「よはくカメラ」は、写真をあえて小さく残すカメラです。 きれいに、大きく、迫力のある写真を撮る。 そんなカメラとは、少し逆です。 撮ったものを小さくして、まわりにはたっぷりの余白を。 ちょっとチープで、ちょっと頼りない。 でも、その小ささと余白が、何気ない一枚を不思議と印象に残る写真にしてくれます。 特別な加工をすることが目的ではありません。 上手な写真をつくるためのカメラでもありません。 今日見つけたもの。 なんとなく残しておきたいもの。 猫、食べもの、道ばたのもの、誰かとの時間。 そんな日常の一場面を、余白の中にちょこんと残します。 主な機能 * 写真を小さく配置した「よはく」のある撮影 * 撮影前に仕上がりを確認できるリアルタイムプレビュー * 3種類のアスペクト比 * 写真の大きさを切り替え * 紙のような背景カラーを選択 * 前面/背面カメラ対応 * 写真ライブラリへの保存 複雑な編集やアカウント登録はありません。 大きく撮らない。 きれいに飾らない。 小さな写真と、大きな余白。 それが「よはくカメラ」です。

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: The Simple Camera at Free against よはくカメラ's $1.99. The Simple Camera also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.5). よはくカメラ's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
