Dazz Cam - Vintage Camera Reviews

Honestly I’m writing this solely for the purpose of requesting a video option that looks something close to S Classic cause I think that would be really nice for so many variations of footage. I’m not sure how easy it’d be though or if it’d be worth it to go out of the way to do. Other than that the options given are great and the “premium” version is definitely worth it. Plus the new additions every so often is nice and refreshing.

Edit: hopefully you see this. What I mean is, S Classic is an option on your app for photos only. If there was a way you could add a video option so it can look like the S Classic filter you have, it’d be really cool.

I love DazzCam. Like, LOVE. It took me forever to find an app that was really awesome and emulating film but Dazz Cam made the wait worth it! There are so many different camera options to play with and it’s extremely easy to use. But.

The reason I knocked a star off my rating is because when you save an image, it doesn’t keep the image date and time taken data. It uses the date and time that you applied the filter to the image. This has kept me from editing as many pictures as I want to since I use a photo book app and like to have the date take on the page. I can’t do that when I’ve edited an image with Dazz Cam since it overwrites the date/time data. This is SO disappointing that I honestly may knock another star off the rating. Please allow images to be saved with the original date and time taken data not over written.

Hi! I really enjoy DazzCam and definitely look forward to using when it comes to my videos in where I like to make the them realistic enough, but I wish you guys don’t have to make the size of the video smaller when you have to play the video. Sometimes when hit the filter in order to make the video it makes it the Instagram size compared to TikTok and long vertical way size. I mostly use DazzCam for my videos and like for it to be posted that size compared to having to make the video smaller and cropping it out later. Other than that I really enjoy DazzCam and love how it has the different compared to apps where they only have vhs.

I know there are efforts with DazzCam to try and match the original cameras, but it would be nice to be able to do some tweaking before a picture/video is taken. For example, the VHS camera is no match for DazzCam already at the top of charts; reason being it looks too clean, not just the images themselves, but the timestamp is by no means authentic-looking (especially compared to other said app). Otherwise all the cameras look amazing, videos too. This is already the best vintage camera package, qualms aside. If they continue to improve, there will be no beating it. One nitpick: DazzCam icon could look more professional and less like it was made in five minutes.

I have received a ton of compliments on my photos thanks to Dazz. I especially have a blast using it while going to live shows, especially with the “double exposure” feature/photo layering capability. I usually am not one to pay for additional in-app purchases, but I happily paid for the additional cameras and lens options. If you like HUJI as much as I did, get DazzCam.

My only complaint is the timestamp placement. I post a lot of my Dazz photos on Instagram, and the timestamp is cut off, while it was perfectly placed in HUJI app pictures. But that is the only very superficial complaint I have with DazzCam. Otherwise, it is a gem.

it's a good app and everyone has been using it and it makes our pictures look cool but i just don't like that people with iphones lower than the 11 can use their from camera and it just kinda ruins it for us. ANYONE should be able to use it while it's fully functioning. on top of that.. i noticed that one of the filters/camera type only takes pictures from my recent album. i don't like that. i tried to take pictures and see if i could use photos from my camera roll since my front camera didn't work with DazzCam. But it didn't work at all. Those photos aren't showing up in my albums. The albums aren't even showing up. Please fix this. Complications like these make your app annoying and then no one is gonna wanna use it.

I literally hate the basic camera on my phone i only ever use that when i need to take clear unfiltered pictures of stuff (notes, drawings ect) but when it comes to fun pictures dazz is my favorite. I got the premium so i can use all the cameras i want. It can be a little overwhelming trying to pick a camera to use because they all have their purpose. I wish I could hand sort how they appear on the bar, its easier for me to remember what camera does what if it stay in the same spot on the order but the feature that allows me to hide the cams i dont use is great.

i have been trying to find a free, simple, easy to use app that does exactly every thing Dazz does. i swear..i was trying to find an app where it has the 3d picture effect, but you had to pay for them or it had a watermark. I was so happy when i discovered the 3d feature. And its aesthetically pleasing😭pictures, videos, whatever you do on it, it will always turn out great. Not to mention, there are extra features you have to pay for, but im extremely content with all that it has already! thanks so much:))

Needs more controls and when you shoot what you see should look like the final product. For instance while recording I can se some of the VHS effect but when played back then I can see film artifact that is not present while recording. I want the time stamp but not the whole time. Give an option to have it turn off after. A set amount of time. I like the plethora of settings and film options and what I really like is I can buy DazzCam forever and not pay a ridiculous monthly fee. I guess maybe that’s why DazzCam is not as versatile so maybe my idea of not paying a monthly fee is a me problem….

I think DazzCam is awesome! Everything it has to offer is great, but although all the video options are true to life it would be nice if you could film stuff in portrait mode with the time stamps being properly up right rather than stuck sideways in landscape. I have another app called rare vision that allows the option for portrait mode and landscape. DazzCam is obviously better but it has the advantage to film in both landscape and portrait and the time stamps will rotate along with it optionally. I’ve filmed stuff in portrait on some of the clips here and everything remains in landscape. I think it would be super beneficial

I paid the one time fee for all the filter options. I love how it makes my pictures feel like they’re something from a 90’s indie film. Great quality and choices available.
If I could make one suggestion, you can’t look at the image you are editing while you are choosing a filter which is kind of frustrating. I have to choose a camera filter, upload a photo to each filter, and see which filter I like best and then delete the others. It would be nice to see each camera filter on the image you are viewing at once so you can pick one easily without the hassle.

Other than that, I LOVE DazzCam!!

(It won’t let me contact you directly so I’m just gonna piggyback off of your response to my last review, gave 5 stars so it didn’t affect DazzCam rating)

That allows us to preview effects on pictures before hand? I would gladly pay for a newer updated version that doesn’t lock us into the current UI.

I can totally appreciate that old school mentality of waiting to find out what the effect is, I started on film so I get it, but I just spent the weekend at Disneyland with a broken hand and I cannot tell you how frustrating it was to use DazzCam.

It’s 2021, functionality is just as important as the retro appeal. I’m not saying disregard DazzCam but for those of us who want to us it with a more modern UI we would absolutely love that. I think you have an untapped user base just sitting there.

Just my thoughts, for whatever they are worth.

This is actually one of the first camera app I’ve downloaded in such a long time. I’m not very into taking pictures. Not so much because I don’t want to remember the moment but because I hate to go into it and try to edit using all the complicated tools in other apps. This one you just choose the camera and then the lens and pose and take!! The pictures hardly need any edits and I just love all the cameras!! I had to subscribe to it for a year! Not because it made me but because I wanted to!! Thanks for making me love taking pictures again!!!

I’m really enjoying DazzCam and all the different type of camera styled filters and lenses that are available! My only suggestion would be to add a way to preview how the final pic will look in the end. With so many options it’s hard to choose which one to pick!

For example: give a general idea of what the picture will look like with the type of camera selected and the different lenses with a stock photo. I find myself selecting camera + lens combos and uploading the same pic multiple times to compare which combination I like best. It’s a bit time consuming with the huge selection available.

I really love DazzCam but i think it could still be improved, if there was an option to write a description or a story about the photo being taken that would be great , like not ON the photo but just to write a story about the photo and what is happening in it i think that would be a really good way to remember memories of the photo instead of forgetting it after some time , also if there could be an edit option after the photo has been taken that would be cool , in case the photo is under exposed or over exposed , other than that i think DazzCam is absolutely fantastic 👌

I continue to love DazzCam but I really wanna see more cameras and video cameras also on polaroid film cameras would be cool to be able to see like “ dirt “ or “ pen marks “ to make it look kinda oldish or yk a little less basic like let us change the boarders of the polaroids with like pen marks sharpie tape and marks dirt make it look a little oldish something like that and more cameras, also when importing video or photos would love the option to add flash as well ! / other effects etc but other than that keep up the amazing work!

I love DazzCam the only thing I would like to see is a change with how the time stamp is displayed when taking a video. Sometimes I forget which way to hold my phone when taking a video in landscape so when I go back and watch the video the timestamp is upside down so maybe having an indicator or something to help prevent mistakes like these from happening would be nice but besides that I think this is a fantastic app.

I think the developers did a wonderful job of mimicking the quality of cameras which they provide within DazzCam , however I bought the full version and I was a little disappointed. I was hoping there would be more frame options (such as just a simple black frame, which is almost the same as the 8mm film except the 8mm has a giant square in the top of it, which bugs me a little). I like how the frames move just a small bit and are a part of the noise/grainy effect, but I regret spending a whole $10 dollars on DazzCam . I’m hoping it’ll be worth it as they add more things when they update in the future.

This is app is great and has a lot of cool features, recently a lot of people have been posting pictures using the D3D camera. But me and many others with iphone 8 plus and lower phones can’t use it with our front camera which makes taking the pictures difficult because if you are able to use the back camera,you can’t see what your are doing if you are taking the picture yourself. it was be really great if you could make the D3D camera functional with the front camera on lower iphones such as the 8 and 7

I really like DazzCam but when I went to make a collage I changed one of the pictures so it didn't cut off anybody's face, but then I go to my camera roll and it had still cut off the face and didn't add in the edit that I had made. I wanted to see if I could go back and change it so you can clearly see everyone but it would let me and I didn't want to have to redo the entire thing. If your able find a way to fix that it would be greatly appreciated app.

UPDATE: they added the features that I and other users recommended! Five stars:)

I just got DazzCam and having really enjoying using it. I just wish that it allowed importing of photos from your library and adding the effect to it. Also like someone else mentioned, it would be nice if there was an option to save the original with no filter. Other than those two things it’s an amazing app and I can’t wait to keep playing around with it!

This is now my go to app for the disposable camera look it’s seriously the best. I took a bit for to me to get used it. It was more of a love hate relationship. The first time I got it I didn’t really take that great of photos why idk I’m a photographer I should’ve known better. I have now rave about DazzCam to my friends and they have all downloaded it. This is seriously one of the best apps out there that has gotten as close as possible to the disposable film effect.

DazzCam was exactly what i was looking for! Not only do you have options but they also don’t pressure you into buying anything! The developers and creators of DazzCam are incredible. I don’t normally write reviews but when you don’t ask for money it makes me want to give to help out. Everyone should help out if they can. Keep up the amazing app guys 🤙🏼

By far, I have enjoyed DazzCam but seeing as I’ve only used it in one setting by far, I’m not comfortable giving it 5 stars right now. When I use it more and maybe decide if in-app purchases are going to be worth it (right now, I’m lending toward buying them when I get the chance since the previews look so cool). But I love the options and the basic cameras/filters and I hope to continue to enjoy it for a long time and be able to give it 5 stars!

Bottom line, DazzCam is on its way to being the best. User friendly, easy, clean design and touch responsive. DazzCam design is fun, not tacky, but actually cool. However, I’d like to see more developments to the video features. I think there should be more customization with filters, colors, LUTs, film layouts and film template overlays. I think if the design team could do that, I think DazzCam would be top notch. Don’t slow down, keep pumping out functions and designs for DazzCam. You got this!

I wish I’d discovered DazzCam sooner!! I shoot film regularly and wanted to have an app on my phone that gives me that analog feeling. I’ve tried so many apps but Dazz is my absolute favorite. Five minutes later I purchased the Pro subscription (which is insanely inexpensive). Please keep it updated and thank you so much for making a great app👏🏻

literally it’s my favorite app so far . I love that they add video, so we can take pictures and video at the same time. But if there’s more video filters like photos it would be great. Because then we don’t need to upload any other apps for vintage camera we will already have our own app that includes everything.

this is the best and underrated film camera app i have ever come across and downloaded. if u are into film cameras, this is the one for you. 100% recommended.

for improvements, i wish for the exported photos to be less blurry and more high quality. it is not that HQ when i post and exported photos w friends online.

I have been searching for an app of this quality for forever! Not only does it include multiple types of cameras, the transition between them is easy and efficient.

One thing I did wish DazzCam offered was an option to enable saving a filter-free original of a photo alongside the filtered version

I absolutely love DazzCam. One of my go-to’s when I’m editing a photo, but there’s one thing that’s been bothering me. I wish that the Polaroid photos don’t have the white background when you choose to use a frame. Other than that, it’s a wonderful app.

I’m super impressed with the simplicity and the film accuracy of DazzCam. I appreciate that you can remove the time stamp and the light leaks, which often looks tacky. I take most of my photos with DazzCam to give photos a bit more mood without going over the top.

The most realistic and true to film video app I’ve used, love the 8 and 16mm look for videos. Only wish there were more options for them, like video with no film piece on the edges, a 4:3 ratio (square), things like that. Hope they’re added in the future!

I love DazzCam so much because it gives you that film look instantly! Super easy to use and I love the variety of cameras they have. You can create any look you want with a click of the button!
