BLINK by Microsoft Research for Windows Phone 8

  • Article

One issue I have had with the Cameras on Windows Phone and other Smart Phones is getting the perfect picture.  This is especially true when trying to take a picture of a person that is moving.  For example, I will try to take a picture of my daughter and by the time picture was taken she had turned her head or changed her facial expression.  So, I was excited when I hear about BLINK by Microsoft Research.  What BLINK does is take a series of pictures in rapid succession and then you can pick the best picture and save it to your Camera Roll.
