Better Camera is the result of a project that consisted of several well-known Android camera apps. Eventually, they merged together and a new feature-rich camera app, Better Camera, was born. It offers superb HDR processing, takes panoramic photos, and also contains a silent night mode. Plus, Better Camera has some features that a lot of mobile device manufacturers have just started installing. For example, this is a group portrait mode, where several photos are taken, and then eventually the camera chooses the best smile of each participant in the photo and takes one shot based on this. It is also possible to remove an object from the photo, choose the best shot from several and continuous shooting.
Better Camera brings features that are rarely found in default camera apps. This is exposure control, white balance and ISO, DSLR - three photos with different exposures are created so that you do not manually change the settings. Better Camera's interface may not be as good as the other apps on our list, but it offers the most useful features.
You might think that Camera Awesome's interface is very similar to the design of iOS 7, but in fact, this is only at first glance. The app has three awesome features worth trying out Camera Awesome. These are exposure controls, white balance and ISO.
The app has a Big Button mode that converts the entire screen into a shutter key so you don't have to press a specific button to take a photo. It will be enough to tap on any part of the screen. There is also the Awesomize effect, thanks to which you can enhance any detail of the photo. Well, Camera Awesome offers a huge number of effects, filters and textures that can be used to enhance your images.
In VSCO Cam, you won't find a huge number of settings and options for creating photos, but after the photo is taken, you will see hundreds of free and paid filter packs, as well as dozens of granular adjustments. These include sharpness, vignette, tint, skin tone, lighting, and more.
VSCO Cam has its own social apps. This is VSCO Grid, the essence of which is very similar to Instagram. Thus, the totality of the features of this camera application have helped it become a favorite among thousands of Android users.
Camera Zoom FX is one of the most powerful camera apps we are reviewing today. It contains modes such as high-speed shooting, best photo, slow motion and the following tools: image stabilization, grid, horizon level. And after the photo has been created, you can apply various filters, collages and adjustments.
Camera Zoom FX has the ability to assign any action to the physical buttons on the phone. For example, the volume keys can zoom in or out if you like.
The Camera FV-5 app initially set the bar high for itself as it claimed it could bring a DSLR experience to a mobile device. Fortunately, the app did not disappoint us. Not only does the Camera FV-5 offer quick button assignments for almost all settings, but it also includes options such as exposure, white balance, ISO, and light metering. The app also contains an option to determine the distance.
You can save your settings for quick access in app modes, assign functions to physical buttons, see the RGB histogram of your image, create a photo according to grids and guide lines, and even save a photo to your phone memory without any loss in .png format.
This concludes our list. It is rather difficult to choose any one application from the proposed ones, because each program is unique and has its own characteristics. Camera Zoom FX is the best in the number of options for taking photos and editing after shooting. Better Camera is suitable for those who want a little more control over their shots than the default cameras offer. And Camera FV-5 will appeal to those users who want to manually select each parameter to get the photo they want.
As for VSCO Cam and Camera Awesome, they are ideal for those who do not want to fiddle with manual settings, but just want to get a high quality photo and easily edit it if necessary.
