New iPhone Photo App: Qik VideoCamera
Wednesday, December 30, 2009 at 12:16PM | Glyn Evans 
Description from the AppStore: High quality video application for 2G and 3G iPhones (does not make much sense for 3GS other than length of recording).
Features:
- High frame rate (7FPS) and resolution (352x288) along with smart video compression technology, you can take more video and use less space on your iPhone.
- Videos can be exported to Camera Roll on your phone, and then downloaded via iPhoto on your Mac.
- Up to 1 hour of video recording.
- Only portrait orientation supported right now.

Editors comments: Overall this is not a bad app, that produces reasonably smooth looking video captures. OK, it doesn't support landscape mode unlike some of the other apps in the category, but I am sure in time it will.
This is becoming an impossible category to make any recommendations in, as the frames per second (FPS) on all are around 7 FPS, and so none of them will never make great videos, so as to which app you choose, will probably come down to branding and features, and whilst this app from Qik does lack in features, it is from a well known brand, and as such is likely to improve.

wish they would start putting all the video apps under a different category.
