"I am an Indonesian photojournalist working in Jakarta. As a photojournalist, capturing pictures with a cell phone camera is like an escape from my tight daily schedule, and liberates me from the obligation to produce works that meet the formal standards of 'perfection' that apply with a DSLR camera.
In fact, using a using cell phone camera, especially 'Hipstamatic', revolutionizes the whole notion of 'imperfection', and enables us to see things differently. With a cell phone camera, there is no problem if the photos produced do not have depth, or are grainy, if there is lighting leakage or colour disharmony. The standard rules do not apply and at times what we realize is that beauty and imperfection can coincide quite wondrously."
