We’ve been drawing attention to a number of blogs which cover our Hue Camera and HUE Animation products in depth recently, but what about other online reviews and discussions which include useful information about HUE?

We’re going to try to round up a few of them in this post!

The HUE camera gets a “thumbs up” from Boinx, makers of iStopMotion

Of course, we recommend HUE Animation Studio for people starting out with stop motion animation; it’s an all-in-one kit with everything you need. If you already have Boinx’s iStopMotion though, the HUE camera is a great choice for a flexible animation camera with a manual focus. And it works with iStopMotion out of the box – no special drivers or plug-ins required!
