Create artistic photos with reizLICHTER by drawing with light. Write texts – sharp edged – with light, or use the freestyle-mode to create any shape you want. Adjust the exposure time of your camera and go ahead. A vibration gives you the signal to move your iPhone further or when the display-time has elapsed. Because the letters are not animated there are no blur effects. Choose between different colours, write the text you want to have on your photo or just use the freestyle-mode. In the text mode choose the display-time (the longer it is the brighter appears the colour on the foto). Adjust the brightness of the display and start. During the display you can easily pause by inclining the iPhone backwards and continue by raising it again. You need a camera with the ability to adjust the exposure time. Be creative, give it a try!
