Windows Phone Photography Questions

[Matthew McGeary]

Hello All!
I just ordered my Nokia Lumia 928 last night and should have it by tomorrow morning. I am coming from the Apple iPhone 5 because I'm an aspiring app developer and want to concentrate on the Windows Phone and Windows Store apps. I also enjoy photography and don't want to have to drag my Nikon D800 and lenses with me everywhere I go. Especially when I have a more than adequate camera in the Lumia 928. Yes I know the 1020 has the 41 megapixel camera, but I'm not a fan of AT&T for personal reasons. I am wondering though are there any good apps for burst shots or HDR? What are your favorite editing apps? Thank you ahead of time for your help.

Hey welcome to wpcentral , lumia 928 is a great pick.
Luckily windows phone 8.1 stock camera will include burst mode,video effects and slow motion video recording. Back on the topic , you can use Nokia camera , it has manual controls like adjusting focus , white balance , etc. for basic photo editing i use Nokia creative studio and picsart.

HDR apps:
4Blend HDR - HDR app with lots of filters
HDR Photo Camera - basic HDR app but with superior alignment algorithm

Apps with burst shots:
ProShot

The Nokia Camera also has a built-in variation of burst mode - not quite as fast in terms of fps, but each shot is taken at full resolution (other burst modes tend to capture at lower res or simply frames taken from video) and there are other creative options that you can select after the shot(s) are taken, i.e. select best shot, change faces, action shot, motion blur and remove objects.
