Hey there,
I was wondering if there are any of you guys who use VSCO Cam. For those who don't know, VSCO is an app for Android and iOS which is like instagram, but better imo. More control, better looks overall.

I feel that this could become a cool thing to use, especially as trip recaps.

Been seeing this pop up a lot on insta but I didn't realize it was its own separate app. From what I can tell the quality seems pretty good, I'm gonna have to check it out.

If you are taking pictures on your phone it's the best app to use to edit them. I just can't stand when people take a picture on a DSLR and edit it on VSCO.

Really good app. I like how, when editing, it emphasises making small subtle adjustments. Most people just wanna do things like whack the saturation up to 100% and make every colour bar red black and white.

I definitely wouldn't ever use it to edit my dslr shots, like why? That's what lightroom is for.

If it didn't take 2 minutes for my iphone to enter camera mode, I might actually use it to take photos. It's a good camera if I like missing 9/10 shots.

If you have a DSLR and want to use vscocam, you go get VSCOfilm packs for lightroom and photoshop.

Do any of you guys use VSCOGrid? If so, what are your usernames?

And what I generally do is import from gallery, much quicker.

torrents?

Anyway, there's loads of really good presets available for free. VSCO make the best, and they've been making them for a while. VSCOcam just gave them a tonne of exposure. I've never used the presets though.

That said on the mobile app, M3 is in 90% of the cases the GOAT filter.
