Behold: Schmutzie's Hipstamatic Lens, Film, and Pak Guide 

Ever since I first downloaded the Hipstamatic app to my iPhone, I have been in love with it, but I have also been frustrated, because, as it has added more lenses, films, and flashes to its stable of options, my ability to find just the right combination for any particular situation has become less and less. I couldn't find another Hipstamatic guide out on the internet that was both up to date and met my needs, so I created Schmutzie's Hipstamatic Lens, Film, and Pak Guide to fill the gap.

Behold!

Schmutzie's Hipstamatic Lens, Film, and Pak Guide

I created galleries of photos documenting every lens and film combination available to date using the same tableau for each example in order to create a consistent look by which to judge each combination. I have not and will not include galleries that detail each flash with each lens and film combination, though, because then we're heading toward taking about 350 photos just to document each flash, and unless someone's going to pay me handsomely for well over 3000 nearly identical shots, that ain't gonna happen. A guide to all the Hipstamatic paks is on its way, though, and the lenses will be documented there, at least within the film/lens/flash groups in which they were originally released.

This is a labour of love for all you iPhoneography and Hipstamatic buffs out there, so take a look around Schmutzie's Hipstamatic Lens, Film, and Pak Guide. I hope it helps you as much as it's already helped me.

Happy hipstamaticking!

I LOVE YOU TODAY! (And every other day, but this was really bothering me the other day and you just saved me SO MUCH TIME AND FRUSTRATION!)

I love Hipstamatic! This is brilliant. Thank you!

Oddly, on Sunday I spent about an hour doing much the same thing, only with a much smaller set of film and lenses...
Nothing this systematic, though, and definitely nothing public. Thanks!

Thank you so, so much for this.

thank thank thank thank you. I love hipstamatic and am --admit it-- too damn lazy to be thinking about all the possible combinations and so forth. So some hipsta photos I love but can't remember what I did to get to that particular effect. Wow. You're like iSanta or something. Or maybe mo'bettah, photo-yoda.

I love my Hipstamatic! and i've only had my iphone a year so i missed out on a few of the early lenses but that is a fantastic guide to all of the lenses i know what most of my favourites look like but its great to see them complared like that especially the ones i don't use as much. - Thanks very much for sharing you hard work.

Here's a link to a selection of my fav hipstamatic shots - i'll might have to go back and add tags detailing the lenses and films used for each when i get a moment.

I feel *really* dumb... but where is it? Clicking on the link here takes me to another page that describes the guide, but I can't actually get to it somehow! It sounds pretty cool and I'm totally interested; I'm just getting stumped by something very obviously, I'm sure....
