I agree, this is great stuff. If you haven't got it yet, get it! Well worth the money.

As Midge said, especially with Halloween coming up... This would be ideal to work into a seance show, ghost walk, haunted house tour, etc.

OOh 5 year old topic, just got this effect & do like it but I have a couple of issues.

1) The handling in the DVD was a bit rubbish, I had to ask myself at the beginning why was he smearing his hands all over the lens?
1b) Also since the video was made phone screens have gotten bigger, how do you find hiding the screen on newer larger screen phones?

2) Most phones will display the image taken for a default 2 - 3 seconds, so by the time you have taken the snap & given the phone back the image has gone, the spec then needs to browse to the image gallery on the phone to find the spec, which to my mind could be seen as something pre-loaded or certainly diluting the effect?

So for those of you who own this, are you still using the effect 5 years on & am I being niggly re the above points?
