* Best Front Camera Flash Light With Video Zoom * *Fastest Front Camera Zoom Light* *********************** Don't wait! Get The Best Front Camera Zoom Light! *********************** Get the brightest, fastest, and most feature rich front light with video camera zoom for the iPhone in the market!!! The app uses the front camera light on iPhone as a camera light and then allows you to zoom in! Plus you can setup a timer so that the light turns off after a few minutes as well. You can also use your camera zoom flash light with additional light. There are many ways you can use a camera light. Is a front facing camera light a necessity for an iPhone? Yes, Yes, & Yes!!! *Special Feature: Light + Video Zoom View We've added a special video view to the light! When would this be useful? Lets say you are replacing the bulb in the backyard and need to read the bulb voltage in the dark. Turn on the app, activate camera light & video and viola. Not only will you have light but you'll also be able to zoom in and see the exactly voltage of the bulb you are replacing from the phone. * How can you use the front light? Let us count the ways! - Set Light Timer - Light Up Room For Few Minutes. - Use it to open doors in low light - Find things in your purse - Find your keys in the dark - Read in the dark - Replace backyard bulb at night - walking to your car at night - During a power outage - Hiking or outdoors - SOS During Emergencies * FEATURES: - Instant On Light When App Activates - Front Light With Video (Must Have) - Strobe Light Effect with Speed Control - Clap For Light On/Off Control - Flip Device On/Off Control - Multiple Tap Light On/Off - Energy Saving Light - Set Custom Light Timing - Battery Indicator * One example of where you can use the light with zoom feature is, if you wanted to read the label on the back of the washer and dryer to replace a part. Simple turn on the light & video view and then read the label from the app. This is just two of thousands of different incidents that the front light with zoom could come in handy. User Reviews: 1) It works like a charm. No ads. Many features and it's free! 2) Great app. Wow. Love the clap on clap off feature. 3) Best flash light ever Many more amazing reviews, see below :-) Thank you all for your support and for using the app. Extended use of the light will drain your battery quickly.

Rapid earthquake location and magnitude verification has never been easier. Quick Quake is also a great educational tool – simply use the demo data to see how P (primary) and S (secondary) waves are used to determine the location of an earthquake. Quick Quake is an earthquake data analysis tool that allows users to quickly determine the epicentre and magnitude of an earthquake by simply picking a P wave and S wave arrival from a single seismograph, then moving the epicentre around a map until the seismograms from the other stations line up in time. The Seismology Research Centre has developed Quick Quake so that users of the Quake Server seismic observatory data management system can quickly verify the automatic event notifications that Quake Server sends out by email. The traditional method of locating earthquakes can take anywhere from 10-20 minutes, but with Quick Quake you can verify or refine the automatic eqServer location and magnitude in less than a minute. How to use Quick Quake with the demo data: • Select which station you wish to use to pick a P and S wave (the “key site”) and hit the target icon • Drag the P (primary wave) marker to the right until it aligns with the first signal that you can see above the background noise • Drag the S (secondary wave) marker to the left until it aligns with the significant increase in signal level (see the screenshots as a guide) • Pinch to zoom the time and amplitude scale if you need better resolution • Continue to the locating screen, where you can drag the target around the circle until the waveforms on the left of the screen roughly align with the P and S travel time guide lines It’s that simple. The solution should work no matter which station you choose, but the closer the station the easier the P and S wave arrival times will be to pick. If you have an Quake Server, just log in using your credentials and the server's IP address or domain name, then you can browse through recent (and past) automatic events and proceed as above. On the “Select a Key Site” screen, you can defer stations from your calculations using a left-swipe, or restore them with a right-swipe. You can also sort your stations in order of distance from the selected “key site”. On the “Locate Event” screen there is are options to adjust the P-wave and S-wave travel velocities to suit your local conditions, as well as the depth of the earthquake. The iPad version shows quick-adjustment buttons, and iPhone and iPad versions include three presets for P and S velocity “models” - now with a customisable magnitude formula. Contact the Seismology Research Centre to learn more about seismographs, Quake Server, and earthquake monitoring networks. Remember to follow the SRC on Facebook and Twitter.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Best Flash Light at 4.7 against Quick Quake's 4.0. Best Flash Light also leads on ratings volume (47K vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). Quick Quake's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
