Description from the AppStore: Take pictures clearly in the dark that cannot be taken by the standard camera. "StarLight Scope" is a night vision scope that amplifies little quantities of light and displays it on the screen. Hidden objects appear from the darkness by sliding across the brightness bar. You can save variety of pictures according to your style and editing. You can choose three types of screen colors representing the image of the night-scopes for each generation.
- First generation : <Red> Infrared rays type.
- Second generation : <Green> Amplified Visible ray type.
- Third generation : <Gray> Amplified infrared rays (heat) type.
(Note: The application provides the image of the night-scope and does not increase the infrared light quantity. So you need to take the picture in suitable amount of light.)
Application Specifications:
- Official name: SAZ-1 StarLight Scope
- Capturing Resolution: 320*480
- Zooming Scale: 4 times large
- Maximum Scale: 30 or more
- Screen Colors: Green, red, and gray
How to use:
- When the application program is started, the screen becomes the camera mode.
- Use the zoom slider to set the picture to the right size, and take the picture with the camera button.
- The screen changes into the edit mode automatically when the picture is taken.
- Edit the picture brightness and colors to make the picture on your own style.
- The edited pictures can be stored on your iPhone with the save button.
- The screen comes back to the camera mode with the cancel button.

Editors comments: I'm not sure how to describe this app, other than to say it produces night-scope looking results that in a strange way kind of work, but I'm not sure when I would use it again.
Also the app is very slow to launch, taking 10 seconds on my iPhone 3G from launch to usable, and the saved files are a poor 320 x 480.
