Is there a replacement for the Lumia Camera App for Lumia 1020 on W10M?

Replacement for Lumia Camera App for Lumia 1020 on W10M

On build 10166, we can no longer download Lumia Camera from the Windows 10 store. Unfortunately, the stock camera app won't take 38mp jpegs like Lumia Camera.

Is there another Camera app in the App store that is on par with Lumia Camera and will take 38mp jpegs?

If there isn't, how would I go about sideloading lumia Camera onto my Lumia 1020? I have access to another Lumia with Lumia Camera Classic installed on it.

Thanks!

You can try camera360 sight, it supports 38mp images.

Are you sure it doesn't take 38mp jpegs? Mine does using the stock camera app, I checked the file info on one of the pictures I took and it was the 38mp.

This is an important question to answer. A Lumia 1020 is the camera. If W10 cannot utilize it fully we need to know.

I did just double check this and yes, the stock camera app does take full resolution shots. However, it doesn't allow to shoot in RAW for that you still have to use Lumia Camera

Btw fwiw you can get Lumia Camera back. Just do a hard reset and don't restore from backup. It will install Lumia Camera as a base app.
