Can't wait for ProShot to support HDR :)
Does anybody know how long it takes to shoot an HDR snap using the HDR Photo Camera app?
I haven't stopped the time, but I think it takes about ~2seconds per shot with about 30 - 35 seconds post processing (at the end after all shots are taken).

amazing app riseupgames...one of the apps that ive recommended to everyone ive met...

just wanted to suggest a feature that maybe you could implement...dunno if its been already asked though...Is there any way you could map the vol buttons for manual focus...and maybe other functions like the zoom..makes it easier when not using a tripod...

This little fella kills me.....there are a few of 'em that just show no shame about coming up close to me when I'm out cleaning the car - probably to get a glance at what they wanna dump on next!
But they run around the garden out the back, chasing each other like free-runners :

^ he was cleaning himself on this one, even though it looks like I may have broke his neck!!

Not a bad outcome, considering I took these after machine-polishing the car, so my hands had tremors running through 'em. :smile:

thanks - yes, they appear to be sensor noise. At ISO100 you shouldnt be seeing that kind of noise i would hope...
An experiement - try a dark room - no flash, then try both the in built camera app and then try the proshot.
compare the resulting photos - what do you see now?

The result is exactly the same with both apps. Both taken with ISO100, no flash and everythin else on auto.

Default camera app:



ProShot:

I second this. Using the volume control for some camera related actions would be cool. Also, will it be possible to have some kind of exif viewer, just to see the properties ?

or maybe use the camera button and the vol buttons together...like use the volume buttons for zoom controls...and then half press the cam button and use the vol buttons at that time for manual focus adjustments.....that would just be amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey just started using this App recently, really love it. But I noticed one thing missing. Is it possible to change the view to use the front camera to take facial shots? I tired searching in all the settings couldnt find it hopefully you see this post and could give me an answer. I also reviewed your app, great work! keep it up! 5/5 :)

It'd be awesome to have access to more external controls, but Microsoft won't allow this due to their UI guidelines. Think of it this way, what if someone were out shooting photos while listening to music, how would they adjust the volume?

(ahh that just brought back some rosy memories of my first digital camera, the Casio EX-M1. I thought I was living in the future...)

Coming in the next update ;)

I haven't added support for the FFC yet. During early testing I noticed quite a few bugs with them on different devices, so I decided to focus on the main camera first. FFC support will be coming later down the line.

By any chance is your flash set to "on" or "auto" ? I've noticed such a bug with Lumia phones when using exposure times >= 1 second and engaging the flash. Seemed to show up more often during daylight. Could have just been my copy of the phone though?

Maybe I just don't get it, but I don't see the problem with losing volume control in camera mode. Somehow Apple makes it work. When taking pictures with the iphone you can use the volume control on the earbud headset to snap pics, sort of like a remote. I think it'd be great if you use a GorillaPod mount.

Yeah that last feature is pretty cool. Sorry, I've got to follow the rules :/

Try taking longer exposures with the flash set to "Off". Also, have you updated to Portico?

i had that problem before with my lumia 820, after taking long exposure photo with "relatively" good light conditions the camera wont work again, even on another camera app, the solution was to restart the phone, then i noticed it was because of the amount of light the app must deal with, long exposures are meant to be used without flash and in dark places.
