Microsoft camera app vs Nokia camera app

[Christopher Lindsay]

Do you use Microsoft camera app or Nokia camera app? Is one better than the other or are they two different ways to get the same results? Is there any reason to have both?

With Microsoft camera you cannot control the shutter speed, which is important for many photographers out there...

Camera apps are good for quick snaps, (for Instagram and launching lens apps) since it starts so quickly however the Nokia camera brings out your phones camera's potential. You can tweak many things like shutter, iso, focus, brightness, white balance etc. You can shoot video with audio filtering, and you have smart cam. The quality is better too

I almost always use either Nokia camera, or even Pro Shot. More often than not though, Nokia camera is my choice.

ProShot it is for me!

Nokia Camera, but I'm curious if the image quality is any different between them, minus any setting differences.

Tapatalk keeps crashing whenever I try to attach an image right now. However, I just fired off two pictures on my 521, with all settings on auto for Nokia camera and microsofts camera. I don't see a difference as far as that. Microsoft camera was a little quicker on snapping the picture.

Microsoft camera is noticeably faster and has a on screen button to switch to the front camera so I use that over Nokia camera

You should have both just in case you want to experiment with your photos.

I have the Nokia Camera set as my default camera (launched from camera shutter button), but I have Microsoft Camera app pinned on the top of the start screen. That way I have easy access to both, as I use both on a regular basis.
