Brilliantly intuitive interface

RonanMC on

The heads up display means that you are seldom more than one tap away from changing the setting to the one you need. The controls are always present, but the design cleverly stop them getting in the way of the photograph.

Camera 1, Exactly what I was looking for!

Camera 1 is an app for both very experienced photographers as well as beginners. It’s many features and capabilities more than meet the expectations of advanced photographers, as well as being an app beginners can grow into as they expand their capabilities. Camera 1 takes me back to the good old days of Tri X 35mm photography. I love BW photography and Camera 1 more than meets my expectations!

New app

Hidden gem

Post_Hip_Los on

Camera 1 is one of my favorite choices for shooting in black and white. It's simple and intuitive, and its images are crisp and stark. Do yourself a favor and give it a try.

This app will make you a better photographer!

This is an amazing app. It fits a fully functioning multi lens camera with a full set of filters shooting in black and white on to your phone. The design and execution is flawless. I am an avid black and white amateur photographer using film and I love the way this app helps me to pre-visualize the photo before I take it. I can’t recommend this app too highly!

An exemplary camera app

Music Prof on

One wants a camera app to at least take good pictures and have a sensible, attractive user interface. Camera1 is all that, but “goes to 11.” Plus it gives you manual control over a number of parameters. You can simply point and shoot and get a sophisticated, artsy, filmy photo with great resolution. But with only a wee bit more attentiveness, you can tweak the focus, exposure, and contrast right on the main screen. The controls are big and hard to miss. The switch from tele to normal to wide is there, too. The UI is only two layers deep, so it’s easy to get at a variety of file types plus a great selection of aspect ratios. The virtual color filters are as true-to-analogue-life as they come. Genius. There are additional luxuries with this Porsche of iPhone camera apps. Your response time is enhanced by full-screen shutter. Icing on the cake for us control freaks is zebra-stripe exposure warnings, so you blow out your highs only if you want to. Specialized. Elegant. Inspiring.

Awesome

This is a fine app if you prefer your iPhone photos taken in black & white. Difference like night and day. Tremendous developer support as well.

Great first impression

AlvesMark on

United States

Just downloaded the app. Opening for the first time pops up a simple overview that is very effective walking you through the settings on screen. Original yet intuitive layout. I hesitated buying the app because the reviews said it was tedious to switch lenses, such as to super wide, but that is no longer a problem. There’s a button to do that right up front. So far, so good.

Great black and white app!
