ProCamera HD

ProCamera for iPad is awesome and so are the fine folks at ProCamera. It will even shoot RAW files for the ultimate in editing potential. And on top of it all, simple and easy to use. What’s not to love. Sid Moore

This is the best camera replacement app ever, and I absolutely love it! It comes with all the functionalities you could think of - from anti-shake and self-timer functions to full control of exposure, focus and white balance. SnapTrigger, which enables you to move the control bar around the screen is a nice little feature, too. This app supports both photos and videos, so you don't need to have separate apps - everything can be done within this one sleek app with no hustle. It's very intuitive to use, and the quality of photos and videos is superb. I highly recommend this app to casual photographers as well as skilled ones.

Update: I submitted this note to the support team and I got feed back. These changes may or may not accrue but at least they got back to me and explained a few things. I really do hope the dev team takes this note into consideration and as I noted before I'm willing to pay again and more if this app includes all these features. Thanks again! ------------------------- I Own the iPad and the iPhone version so I paid for both and I can tell you right now that they are not the same. The iPad version doesn't have the histogram or ISO levels and the iPhone doesn't split selection between focus and exposure. I don't want a refund I just want it to be one noted that they don't include the same features and two that they should be fixed to have the same features. It's the same app is it not? P.S. Keep the split exposure and focus, it works better then the iPhone version. The Histogram and ISO should be displayed on both iPhone and iPad versions. If you guys could add ISO control and Exposure Lock EV lock not fixed on an object/location changing but rather metering with exposure control/lock that would be fantastic. I don't expect shutter speed and aperture. Don't think the iPad/iPhone camera sensors are capable but if they are I would pay up to $15 to for full manual controls Dslr style withe the ios simplicity. I will fix rating after you fix the original problems noted.

On first look the app takes nice pictures on iPad. I prefer separate/post processing so I do not care if there is all the other stuff. Just want good pics with some manual control. Only hold back on five stars is that the continuous autofocus in video mode is very quick, makes video look jumpy when taking close up video and focal length changes. Imagine would work better at greater distance. For now it is just turned off until I can figure it out, but it is working good without it. Big plus is you can snap a photo while in video mode and this app at least saves the video the other app I bought could not do....it is now gone.

I have been a long time user of the iPhone version of ProCamera, so I was thrilled to find the iPad "HD" version. Sadly I was very disappointed to find that the very cool image editing features in the iPhone version did not make it to the iPad version. Ironically, you have very convenient access to the Camera Roll and all the Albums stored on the iPad, but there is nothng you can do with them except share them, "as-is". Hopefully a future update will add editing tools and features like Pro FX and Pro Lab. These are essential, in my opinion, since the iPad is a very capable editing platform. If you consider the iPad2 with a pretty lame camera, the great camera features of this app are really wasted.
