Camera Apps for Professionals

Here are some professional camera apps for android which includes a wide range of advanced functions that will help you to capture some amazing photos.

#Camera FV 5

If you are or want to become a photographer then this app is actually a cheap way to learn how to use a real DSLR. This apps gives you manual controls similar to a professional DSLR camera. So why would you need all these manual controls on an app? Especially when we have one tap camera apps like google camera. Well, one benefit of having these manual controls is you don’t need to do as much as to edit the photo after you’ve taken it. For Example, if you’re using google camera, then you can use tap to focus or exposure, but you can’t adjust how much exposure or focus you want. With camera FV 5 you get some really awesome controls to play around with.

#DSLR Camera

DSLR camera tries to emulates DSLR features into your phone as much as possible. You can adjust every detail of your picture, But only when your hardware supports it. Honestly, the user interface is not that friendly and you cannot use your fingers to zoom while taking a picture. Instead, there is a magnifying glass icon that allows us to do so. Apart from this, the app has the tendency to click great pictures because of so many functions available.

#Manual Camera

The manual camera offers a range of settings that most camera apps don’t offers. You can take control of every detail in your picture including focus, exposure, white balance, etc. One of the most interesting features is this app allows us to save the picture in lossless RAW format, so there are possibilities for further processing the image.

#A Better Camera

A better camera has a lot of interesting features like :

> Multishot – Where you can take multiple pictures with the same background without getting the picture blurred. You can also capture Group portrait, Sequence shot.
> Removing unwanted people/ objects from your photograph.
> Taking quick pictures, like taking 10 pictures in a row quickly.
> Manual controls like focus, ISO, and shutter speed priority

#VSCO Cam

VSCO Cam provides an Instagram like experience, It combines a camera with sharing and editing functions. When it comes down to filters then VSCO Cam is the best. It has tons of cool filters which you won’t find in other camera apps. You can also import already snapped pictures and edit them with filters and presets.
