Best Camera App for iPhone?

UFreefer · Jul 3, 2018

What's your favorite app and why?

Some of the ones I saw in the store:
ProCamera
ProCam 5
Aquarium Camera
Halide
Camera+

I like Camera+ it does most things really well. There's also an app called snapseed that let's you take out a lot of blue.

I'm a fan of Aquarium Camera, because I'm completely photography illiterate and it just kind of automatically does its thing and lets me take a somewhat passable pic. I've tried a few other apps that can do the same thing, but I just suck at the adjustments, so having an app that's geared towards our blue issue helps. I'm sure there are nicer camera apps that can do much more, but this one is nice for someone that's horrendous at adjusting/editing.

Here are a few examples from Aquarium Camera that I just took. Not great pics by any stretch of the imagination (mostly due to operator's lack of skill), but at least they show accurate coloration from the corals.

I downloaded the aquarium camera app. I was wondering if there was some instructions on usage and/or some sort of tricks?

I was a beta tester for Aquarium camera, it is very easy to get decent pictures with it.

I use Halide and LR. I like Halide because it shoots in RAW and is easy to move to LR for a quick workflow.

I became frustrated shooting with 16k and up lighting, dropped down to 12k and am now getting pictures that I am much more satisfied with... that won't help folks who are looking for neon colors I guess.

I don't really have interesting things to photograph as the tank is only a couple months old, and to be fair I am pulling the trigger on a DSLR next week, but here are some examples of minimally processed shots on an iPhone X.

I am an absolute beginner at LED photography, others may be able to show some much cooler examples.

Anyone else using the Aquarium Camera app? I just downloaded Snapseed and am not finding it to be quite as wonderous or simple as some on another thread here.

With the new iPhone iOS the built-in edit features are fine. just boost warmth.

That looks as good- or better-than much of what I saw being taken on Snapseed!

I hated this app and wasted of money last year. I bought the filter lenses, day and night.

Don’t wast your money on that!
