Manual Camera 4 for Negative User Reviews

✓ Zoom BabyNot a bad app, but can someone tell me how to zoom with this app. I can get it to zoom no matter what..GetnickedVersion: 2.1.2

✓ DumbNot real focus just blurs the image..FaaahhkUBERVersion: 4.3.1

✓ Loved the original. Can not get this version to work at all. 😕The title says it all. Once downloaded it looks normal but no image is created..TomwinbVersion: 2.2

✓ Manual can be better, has it's bugs...Love the fact that iOS 8 now has the ability to adjust exposure, and furthermore allowing 3rd party apps like, Manual to exploit that feature. Manual is a good start, but there are a few things that I've come across that I'm hoping will be addressed. Manual slider adjustment for ISO/Shutter needs some sort of customization. It seems impossible to adjust either of those settings to anything "standard". Maybe I'm spoiled by my DSLR, but it would be nice to have an on/off feature in which it allows "Full-Stops", possibly "1/3 Stops" for manual slider adjustments in both ISO and Shutter Speed. When making manual adjustment to ISO and/or Shutter Speed, I wish you can still use Auto Focus by tapping the screen without having the manual adjustment made prior, resorting everything back to auto. With this last update that introduced a histogram, when using it in either portrait or landscape, and then turning off when not, it does not disappear. Also, if I use the histogram in landscape and try turning it off, not only does it not disappear, but when turning it back on, it seems ad though it effects the gyroscope, making the orientation confused, horizontally and vertically. I want to enjoy this app more, but the features and issue I've outlined make it more clunky than anything. Hoping future updates will address the issue, and maybe implement some of the thoughts I've mentioned..Lamar k. fotoVersion: 1.1

✓ BuggyThis app seems to break safari. I was automatically redirected to a site that tried to make me download flash. Really unusual behavior for a camera app. Deleting it fixed my problem..Robbymeyer2Version: 3.1

✓ UpdateHow about you update this app for iOS 13 + new devices. I didn’t pay for this just for you to drop support..Rc2711Version: 2.2

✓ Update needed for video glitchesI honestly love this app minus a few video glitches. Today while recording an event the app crashed around 40 minutes in. It did not store the video to the point of the crash it just crashed and I lost all that video. I then restarted the phone (iPhone 8 plus) and tried to continue to record the event but couldn’t get the app past 4 minutes of video without it crashing. Please get this fixed. Furthermore, please adjust the controls to where you can gradually change options without it making drastic jumps depending on where you place your finger. Hope that makes sense but an example would be the zoom. If it’s on 3x and you want to gradually zoom back out it’s impossible..Lopez2three45Version: 2.2

✓ Do not use for videoI tried to use this app to record a short video, and it seemed to lose a bunch of my longer clips. I just tried it again to test it out and if I record a longer video, when I hit stop, the spinner shows, but the clip does not appear in my camera roll. This app might be fine for still photos, but for video, stay away..L,.&Version: 1.4

✓ Trouble with fine adjustmentI'm getting occasional good results from this app, but it is so hard to adjust the iso and shutter speed controls precisely, which I need, that it is frustrating and throws off my results. The icons at the end of each slider should increment and decrement by one step to compensate for this ease-of-use problem..AppReviewSteveVersion: 1.8.1

✓ It can't do time exposures!I liked what I saw until I realized that I could only take a max of 1/3 second shutter speed. I need to do nighttime exposures, so 1/3 of a second is far too short. Camera+ can do 30s exposures, so I know it's possible..Rllyrllyangry13Version: 1.7.1

✓ Didn’t workJust kept crashing. I’m on beta version for IOS but doesn’t work..Nipigon34Version: 4.7

✓ Lacking basic photography concepts.Just a little tip...Daylight is higher on the Kelvin scale around (5600k), and tungsten is more around (3200k) the app has the symbols flip flopped. Warmer in color doesn’t mean a higher number on the Kelvin scale. I feel if you’re making a photography app this should be common knowledge. The histogram is pretty wonky. I’m fairly sure this is just a meter for how light or dark the frame is. A real histogram should be showing the underexposed and over exposed areas. Rather than just averaging it out on a bar graph. Can I get a refund?.Ryan NCVersion: 2.0.2

✓ Does not workNot sure why other people like this app but it does not work. Shutter speed isn’t accurate, there’s no way to control aperture, and when I take the photograph, it saves completely different on my camera roll. As a photographer I can say that this app is no where close to using a real camera..AnnaIkonoVersion: 4.3.1

✓ ZOOMING FEATURE GLITCHThe app is pretty good overall, however, there’s a glitch on the ZOOMING feature. While the phone is recording and if you touch the zoom button, it will jump from 1.0x to 1.4x..Dragonson2600Version: 2.2

✓ DisappointingAlthough the features for taking live shots are good (adjust exposure, focus etc) you can't use *any* of those to edit your existing videos. Existing videos can only have filters applied, which is already possible in Instagram. This should be made clearer in the description / screenshots. Just wasted £1.49 :(.KatBooVersion: 1.5

✓ DisappointedUpdated to one star as I contacted the developer weeks ago and have gotten no response. Getting refund from Apple. New to iOS, have always had Notes. As a photographer I wanted to take advantage of newer iPhone abilities to shoot RAW and have some manual control. Unfortunately this app was a let down as it’s longest shutter speed was only 1/15. Plus there is the annoying fake shutter sound with no option to turn it off. Finally today every pic I took with the app was blank. Too unreliable, and disappointing especially for a paid app. Uninstalling..Sharkboy HawaiiVersion: 2.0.2

✓ Only half second exposure?I like being able to adjust the ISO settings with this app but it's frustrating to only be able to use up to a half second shutter speed. I can't think of many scenarios where I'd be using 1800+ ISO and a half second shutter, please add increased exposure or even a bulb option..Ryan33333333333Version: 1.7.1

✓ DecentThis app has its moments. There are only like 3 apps including this one that can really give you some good control over your camera. This particular apps user interface isn't the most intuitive. The slider bars can be quit annoying as it can be impossible to get your shutter speed to 1/60. You slide to 1/60 and once you take your finger off, it's moves ever so slightly to 1/62 or 1/57. I also feel that white balance isn't quit correct on the kelvin temp scale. I know for a fact the lights in my home are 4700. Not 3000 but that's okay. It's not hard to get it balance. Just if you ever have to reshot something after changing the settings it could be difficult to get it just right like before. It's not like a DSLR but it does well at giving you more control. I like the slider bar for focus but I would rather not have the slider for everything else..Tyler SandyVersion: 1.9

✓ Nice control but incompleteThis app gives you some manual control, it is by no means fully functional. They were issues using a blutooth shutter release. Pressing the Bluetooth remote shutter release causes the volume to turn up. Also with the app running or off it has interfered with the keyboard coming up to type in anything. this makes this program a wasted 2$. Like I said not really functional and any usable manner.Longun45Version: 1.6

✓ Waste of money.. and frustration.Pros: None.. because there are no differences between this app and the native focus and aperture lock on camera app on the phone. Cons: plenty.. don’t waste your time with it. They claim the focus (manual) suppose to lock while refocusing on a new subject, it’s a lie. All the features are just features minus the functionality. And when I went to ask for a refund, it was denied..Ibn batootaVersion: 2.2

✓ Flawed. Need a fix or a refund.Slowing the shutter speed lets in more light and there is no way to compensate. You might think you just compensate with the EV control but it has no effect at all after you have set the shutter speed. So I can't use this app for one of its advertised benefits since the photo is now overexposed. I can try changing the EV before but then that's just guesswork. Also the ISO and speed seem curiously linked together thus undoing some of the values you thought you had set..Mark 888888Version: 1.3
