Better iPhone photos

I came across this app https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/manual-custom-exposure-camera/id917146276

I know NOTHING about photography, digital or otherwise. I picked up a little from

Here's a shot from the normal iPhone camera app.

Here's the same coin, same lighting, same rig, but with that app and a bit of clueless futzing.

No, it's not TrueView but it's definitely better!

    You can easily adjust exposure with the native camera app by just touching the screen and moving the slider up or down

    You really can't do much with the native app. This new app gives you much, much more.
  • Here's what the app looks like:

    I had that app at one time and deleted it since as camera + is so superior.

    The exposure certainly is better, but the biggest improvement is being in focus.

    Do you have a link for that?

    Actually - never mind, I already own it, but had not updated it since IOS 7

    Here's the same coin with Camera Plus. I don't think it is as good, honestly and the app does not have the controls Manual has. It is better than the native camera app though.

    Keep in mind that the ability to add those controls only came with IOS 8 - Camera Plus will probably be updated.

  • Though I have to say I like the color better with Camera Plus. And it's easier to use as all I did was set Macro mode.
