Manual Camera 4 for Positive User Reviews
✓ Better clarity, color accuracyAs an artist I use this app exclusively to take photos of paintings. Its color-accurate less-opinionated algorithm drastically improves the images produces by native iPhone hardware (the Apple algorithm does things fo make your selfies and vacation shots pretty that take forever to reduce in Photoshop afterward). I was thinking of buying an SLR camera but instead I got Manual. Thanks for making it! Highly recommend..Version: 4.8
✓ Focus peaking works wellI bought this photo app on sale this morning, particularly for the focus peaking feature to help optimize manual focusing on the main object of interest during closeups. I can’t always get the autofocus on my iPhone 11 to do what I want it to do. I wasn’t sure how well it would work. After testing it indoor and outdoor in bright sunlight I found it works great. When the feature is activated It highlights in a bright green color the portion of the scene that’s in focus. It’s particularly useful for those like me who are slightly farsighted..Version: 4.0
✓ Useful backdoorUnderstandably simple because it's only accessing the iOS 8 camera API, same with all the others. I liked the ability to set white balance, it often seems wrong automatically. I would like: 1) longer sliders 2) Calibration on the focus, even if it's just 1m, 2m, 5m, 10m, infinity. Then I can guess the distance (quicker than the camera). It's best use for me will be grab shots, where I want to secretly set it up without having to train it on the subject, then quickly point and immediately shoot. That was easy on a 1969 Praktika, it's time technology caught up and allowed me to take a photo ... NOW..Version: 1.0
✓ Good app, better than Manual"Manual" seems to be a more popular app and I tried it first. I found it unintuitive and unreliable. This app ("Manual Camera") is much better. It has the same functionality, plus it's easier to use, takes better pictures (or at least makes it easier to take better pictures), and doesn't seem buggy. Kudos to the developer and I will be recommending it to friends if they are looking for an app that gives them manual exposure controls..Version: 1.4
✓ Almost thereThis app is great and does what I want it to, except for as soon as you swipe all the way to the right to "zoom" it freezes and you can't swipe back to your other options..Version: 1.0
✓ Good Update ... Still lackingHas all functions you can get (note: you can't get aperture for any apps) They removed the speed preview which I like however an exposure meter would be fantastic or even a smaller image that does show speed preview (like a FaceTime cam) would help greatly.Version: 1.1
✓ Almost perfectI have no problem recommending this to everyone in the world. At such a low price and no in app purchases, you’re getting, in essence, an entire DSLR camera on every Apple device you own My one problem is how the self-editing is on the RAW photos, and there’s no way to turn that off.Version: 4.9.6
✓ Very nice, but sometimes less is moreI prefer a pro camera without the gimmicks, so I was kind of disappointed to see that it had editing filters.. Please don't going ruining a good thing by adding more editing features this app is fine just the way it is.Version: 1.9
✓ Love this app with one caveat...If you will implement the function to default to my frame rate and resolution of choice on video, I will give you 5 stars..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Very well done!I wish you can lock some of the controls such as shutter speed ect when filming a vid. When you look back to review some of the footage you just took, then go back to record further, the settings all go back to Auto by its self. I wish the settings would stay how I left it..Version: 1.0
✓ The best manual cam so farThe best manual camera app for photo and video so far. I like how easy you can manually adjust the controls and even changing frame rate and resolution easily on screen including slow motion. My search for manual camera is over!.Version: 1.1
✓ Similar chrome to native camera appThere's a lot to like about this camera app. it's similar in looks to the native video camera app and obscures the 16:9 frame with a similar amount of GUI chrome as the native app. also includes audio level meter which is useful. it's the only video recording app I'm aware of which differentiates between mono and stereo audio monitoring (ie you get two meters, one for each channel when recording stereo - this gives an easy visual check, bravo) niggles me that there is no quick way to select the video resolution & framerate - it takes a while to cycle between 1080p@60 and 4k for example. also, for video, it does not save the state if the app closes in the background - defaults back to 1080@30 - thus my comment about how long it takes to select video attributes. its cool though (assuming you want the simplicity of reliable single reticle), and saves videos straight to camera roll rather than its own silo..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Amazing!I might just sell my dslr after using this app. My dslr can't shoot 240 fps, or shoot 4K video!! Great app easy to use. If you know camera stuff then this is the app for you! Incredible slo mo..Version: 1.9
✓ Maybe Change the Name?This app doesn't get the respect it deserves because there is another camera app called Manual, and if you look up "Manual Camera Apps" it hardly ever shows up. Maybe it needs a new name, like KendiKam Pro, to help it get found and reviewed. Because it's an amazing app! It's worth it just for the ability to tap the screen to take a picture..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Better than the Manual app!I bought Manual first, excited by the options with ios8. This is better as it controls more options and does it with video as well. I've had a freeze or two but I'm sure it will be fixed with future updates..Version: 1.1
✓ PerfectBut I would add Wide Colour Gamut (P3) compatibility to further enhance the app..Version: 1.9
✓ WowBy far, this is the greatest Camera app in existence. It absolutely replaces the standard Camera app as well as removes the need for extra editing via third party apps. It's simplistic design and powerful tools make it the must-have app for anyone interested in Photography. (It shoots video too!).Version: 1.3
✓ So far, I'm impressed!After loving Camera+ for years I think this may be a great upgrade. A couple of things are potentially deal breakers. 1) switching between video modes needs to be quicker. I'm on a 6s and tapping through doesn't work well. Need a video quick? Good luck. 2) The audio and histogram graphics need some love. They're not as good looking or unobtrusive as they should/could be. 3) maybe a onboarding tutorial that educates and lesser known features, e.g., ISO v EV v WB. Great app! I look forward to learning it better!.Version: 1.7.1
✓ I like it.Great app. Could you please add option to remember photo or video mode what are you using after reopen app? Thanks.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Best manual cam app for video so farI've tried and purchased quite many apps with manual camera controls, looking for one that allows settings for anything iOS 8 and iPhone 6 have to offer. This one does! Not only can you choose all the different video modes in-app (1080p/60f, 720p/240f etc), you can set shutter speed, focus and ISO manually. If detailed slow-mo is your thing (without motion blur), this is the app you need. It is now my go-to app for these tasks. RECOMMMEND!.Version: 1.2
✓ SuggestionsOverall very nice app. Here's a few suggestions to improve it -- 1. needs access to HDR setting (On, Off, Auto) just like the built-in camera app has 2. access to video rez/frame rate from within the app is nice, but it's a pain to have to cycle thru them all to get to what you want. Would be real nice if a click provided a drop-down list of all supported and then with a tap you could make your choice 3. must replace the ugly app icon (gray with a white camera outline), PLEASE!.Version: 2.2
✓ Great control for filmmakersWith news that the next iPhone will record 4K video, I searched around to find apps that let people have manual control of the camera. I came across this one and decided to give it a try; I am not disappointed! This offers great fine-tuned control for everything and let's you shoot at various frame rates - even 24fps..Version: 1.4
✓ One Of The Best.I've looked around for a camera app that seems to do everything that I wanted and just a little bit more, and I'd say that this is as good as they come. The real selling point for me was the capability to be able to zoom, most of the other apps do a good job, but they don't have any zoom functionality. In my humble opinion, this one is a winner :).Version: 1.3
✓ RAW ZoomCan you explain why the zoom function disappears when I switch from JPEG to RAW files? Can this be corrected?.Version: 4.3.1
✓ A must have appSo nice to be able to control the camera and not be at the mercy of constantly changing auto settings. Anyone trying to take a descent shot must have this app. Something Apple should have included but didn't..Version: 1.2
✓ Simple and yet powerfulProbably the best camera app. It's so easy to use. You have control over focus, speed, and and ISO. I wish it had the option to save TIFF files..Version: 1.0
✓ RAWGo into settings and change your Photo setting to RAW ! Way better photos ! .....Version: 4.0
✓ Love this appI use this app to shoot in RAW and then import onto Lr Mobile perfect combo..Version: 1.9
✓ 100% worth the moneyI generally don't purchase apps and simply use free ones, but it was driving me crazy not being able to set the white balance for Etsy pictures, since the iPhone camera runs a little cool or overcompensates for warm or cool colored items. This app is pretty amazing overall, and lets you adjust every setting you ever wanted. Just a couple things need to be tweaked: 1) The lock for settings is incredibly hard to use and not at all intuitive (I had to google, and I got it to work for a little while the other day and can't manage tonight.) Why not just an easy to press lock button? 2) I'd like to be able to manually enter a number for the WB. It's difficult to adjust it precisely with finger scrolling. 3) EV tends to go gradually for about 3/4 of a stop and then it seems to jump way too far in that direction. Doesn't seem to be quite calibrated exactly. The iOS8 native brightness adjustment is much easier to get at just the right spot. Nitpicking aside, I seriously love this app. I love being able to lock in the most macroest focus, and the flash adjustment that stays on and lets you adjust it BEFORE taking the picture is genius. <3 <3 <3 overall.Version: 1.4
✓ An essential for all phone photographersThis app allows user to maximize the potential of their iphone camera. thank you developers for making this absolute gift to iphone users.Version: 4.8.1
✓ Works perfectlyReally helped improve the quality of my images on my I phone. So much it’s like having another camera..Version: 4.8.1
✓ Awesome appAfter getting a bulky app that didn’t work in bright light, I got this app that is so light on memory. And boy it works. I even tried using the telephoto mode that comes with my iPhone 8 Plus and it worked like a charm. I don’t regret paying for it at all. Great work guys..Version: 4.0
✓ Rack focusI needed to be able to do rack focus during video recording, and this app does it beautifully. Even better, it doesn't compress the video, and allows you to select the resolution (up to 4K!) and fps, then saves it right to your camera roll. It also lets you manually adjust a million other settings, which I'm looking forward to utilizing. But the manual focus adjusting during video recording is what really made it worth the $2.99 for me. Very easy to use, very tempting to use all the time!.Version: 1.9
✓ User manual available ?I downloaded this App, is there a users manual someplace that we can use to get the full aspects of this App? Perhaps attach a link here for us..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Simple and effectiveI use this app primarily for mitigating the awful auto-white balance in the default camera on the iPhone 13 Pro (pictures taken in sunshine make skin look orange). This app exposes the white balance slider. Additionally it’s a one time low fee, which I will ALWAYS purchase instead of a subscription..Version: 4.9.6
✓ Great!Be careful! I was quick to cry foul, but I found that in the app setting if you change it from auto focus and exposure to just auto focus in the gestures, it will cure an issue with the adjustments you make reverting back to defaults!.Version: 1.2
✓ Great app ...It is a great app that i have been using for years i like the fact you can control the camera in ways you won’t be able to do with the stock app but now i have just upgraded my phone and i realise there is no aperture control and its a shame i have to go back to the stock app where i have it.Version: 4.0
✓ Enhances the iPhone cameraWith a few minutes of fiddling I was able to take photos with the moon, stars and odd lighting.Version: 2.2
✓ VfxI’m not a photographer, I use this for motion tracking bc it lets me adjust shutter speed and has done everything that I’ve needed it to do.Version: 4.1
✓ Don’t look no farther!It’s here and the only one needed!!!!!.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Absolutely worth $3I’ve recommended this app to so many people. Absolutely love it.Version: 4.8.1
✓ Brilliant!It gives you the control of the camera you always wanted, but without the sacrifice of continuity. It looks almost exactly like the camera app that comes installed on iOS, but with more features. I love it!.Version: 1.0
✓ It exists...I didn't think it was possible to achieve true movie-type camera video focus on an iPad. But alas, this app has done it..Version: 1.7.1
