The Big Button feature allows users to touch anywhere on-screen to capture a photograph, a feature I always use. Grid View superimposes a 3x3 grid on the viewfinder, providing users with a frame of reference when taking photos a feature I've never needed, but appreciate its presence. Timed photos can be set to anywhere from 1-10 seconds, from within the Settings menu. While it's nice to have, I can't think of a situation where I would use Timed Capture with a smartphone camera that has no stand, base, etc., unless I set the timer, hand it to my 11-year old and tell him to make sure we're all in the frame when the timer reaches zero. Timed Capture allows users to touch the shutter button, initiating a count down which appears on-screen before the picture is taken. This adds a third level of photo saving (Burst quick roll, quick roll, camera roll) that seems redundant. The user can then select which photos he/she wants to delete/save to their Quick Roll. My experience with Burst was essentially the same as with most other apps, with one caveat: The camera takes a rapid succession of shots, dependent upon the user's configuration settings, then, instead of automatically saving them, presents the photos for the user's review.
#CAMERA PLUS PRO APP IOS 11 PRO#
Camera Plus Pro allows users to take anywhere from 1-15 photos, user-adjustable within Settings. Camera Plus Pro performed these tasks flawlessly.īurst mode allows users to take photographs in rapid succession. I sent several photos to my Facebook and Twitter accounts with no problem and also emailed several photos. I was able to take decent photos using the app's Point Zoom mode, thanks to its anti-shake feature, found within Settings. When using Point Zoom, the farther in you zoom, the more movement your camera registers, a negative you need to take into account when using digital zoom. Once the picture is taken, it's saved to the app's Quick Roll. Doing so produces an icon, at which time they can zoom further using the on-screen slider or by touching and holding on the spot they want to focus onto. Using Point Zoom requires the user to focus on a target, then touch the spot/area which they want to zoom into. Once synced, the original photo/video remains in the app's Quick Roll for users to keep or delete.

Users can then sync one or multiple photos/videos, at any time, to their iPhone's Camera Roll. All photographs and videos taken with Camera Plus Pro are saved to its built-in Quick Roll. Additionally, Share and Manage features allow users to send multiple photos to Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Picasa or Email and delete and/or sync photos in the app's Quick Roll to their iPhone's Camera Roll. The shutter button is located in the middle and the video/photo toggle switch is located next to it, at the far right.Ĭamera Plus Pro is essentially operated using one of two modes: Camera Mode (preparing for and taking pictures) and Edit Mode (post picture taking). When you combine this power with a photography application like Camera Plus Pro, it's like shooting fish in a barrel (an activity not condoned by Ghandi nor myself).Ĭamera Plus Pro was developed to address all of the iPhone camera's shortcomings and then some, providing users with the iPhone camera's native features (auto-zoom and tap-to-zoom) and additional functionality, such as burst-mode shooting, timed capture, geo-tagging and a variety of photo/video editing features.Ĭamera Plus Pro's menu interface is clean and uncluttered, consisting of four buttons/features located along the bottom of the viewing plane: The Features button opens to expose Point Zoom, Burst Mode, Timed Capture, Grid View, Big Button, Tags, Geo-Tag, Settings, Info and Help.The Quick Roll button gives users access to photos and videos taken and stored with/in Camera Plus Pro. There's something very alluring about having the power to capture one moment in time within an infinite universe, innocent, natural, raw and vulnerable, forever.įew things in life, aside from animals and small children, remain untainted from its harsh realities, yet only a simple photograph, regardless of its subject, has the power to transcend time and nature, combining the two to convey an image powerful enough to invoke passion, pleasure and pain from deep within the human psyche.


I'm essentially walking around with a dumbcamera.

I've come to realize that I use the camera on my iPhone more than the phone itself. " He was indeed a wise man, but I think the following also rings true: "The shallowness and decay of a civilization and its moral progress can be judged by the way its smartphones are treated." Ghandi once said: "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
