“Get creative with your iSight”

by Cyril Roger about Iris

Iris adds some cool extra features to your Mac's iSight camera.

The application is easy to set up and use. You can take snapshots or make movies in real time or via time lapse. The fun thing though is adding filters to make your snapshots a bit more original. Iris can also be used as a covert monitoring tool if you're worried about your Mac being stolen or tampered with. Use Motion Detection and Email alerting to detect intruders and notify you, when you're away.

The fun thing about taking snapshots and videos is to share them with your friends and family. Iris not only keeps them well organized in a gallery but it also includes features to send them by mail, upload to Flickr or export to an Apple device like an iPod or iPhone. Again here the process is simple and quick and easy enough for any beginner.

Iris adds a bit of excitement to your iSight camera. Although the controls can feel somewhat limited, the application enhances the Mac webcam and in a way encourages you to use it.

Despite some limited controls, Iris empowers your iSight to take snapshots and movies, share them with your friends and even monitor your Mac.

Pros
  • Easy to set up and use
  • Add filters before snapshot
  • Make videos and snapshots
  • Share videos

  • Limited control

    I always find it interesting when a review of a software indicates "easy to setup". Easy for who?
