Pudding Camera on the Samsung Galaxy S2

Pudding Camera is currently one of the most popular camera apps available from the Android Market. It has an interesting, simple and user-friendly interface which makes it nice to use:

I took a number of photos testing out various filters with some of the results below. What I didnt like is that 'Pudding Camera' seems to vertically stretch some photos slightly, with most settings other than 'Snap'. I'm not sure if this is only on the SGS2 phone or whether it's a univeral issue.

Using 'Fantasy' and 'Dazzle' together does make for some nice surreal shots, and I've often seen the 'Fisheye' filter used for shots at nightclub events to great effect. Pudding has features for taking more Retro
looking shots such as 'Noir', 'Vintage Brown' and my personal favourite, 'Vignetting'.

What I do like about this app is that it allows you to choose 'Flash option' with all of the filters. Something even the Galaxy S2's own internal application doesn't allow.

Unfortunately, the Free App can only take photos to a maximum resolution of  1280px.
