Top Pcmac Reviews

Astonishing on my 7

By drfoto (Pcmac user)

I was concerned to read some of the negative reviews but figured I could roll the dice for $3. Admittedly the best result in sharpness comes from shooting a stabilized phone, but the dramatic improvement in low light quality, even hand held, is astonishing. The rendering of improved shadow detail is remarkable and the noise reduction superb. I can't wait to use it on subject matter beyond the preliminary test shots. I have no idea why others describe a poor experience but I'm very impressed.
Just keeps getting better.

By David247 (Pcmac user)

I’ve been using this app for some time now and for static subjects or subjects with minimal motion it does great. You must be able to hold your phone reasonably steady for several seconds. It’s low light capability is impressive even though that is not its primary purpose. Color rendition is excellent. With shadow enhance turned on it provides an HDR effect. My favorite camera app. Now I just need to get a newer model iPhone to get the most out of it.
Outstanding

By Celeron Hubbard (Pcmac user)

Extremely good idea and works really well. Only problem is you have to keep the phone really steady or you’ll get a bit of a blur. If you have a tripod or can stabilize your phone against something solid then you’ll take far better low light photos than with the regular camera. Absolutely worth the money, but you’ll use it for stationary objects only - period.
Glitch

By Chris31390 (Pcmac user)

There was a glitch preventing me from using the telephoto lens, due to opening the app while it was on front camera. When on rear camera, trying to use telephoto lens wasn’t possible, no option was shown. I initially thought they had removed the ability to use it but it was just a bug. Other than that, 5/5 stars it’s a great app
