Very Cool
pop-ups
This app is really cool and can help get much higher quality images than with the standard cam. One thing I would like to see is a combination of multishot and bracketing. Basically each exposure of the bracket would itself be made up of 3 or more (maybe up to 15) multi exposure shots combined into one. This would give a much higher quality result for each exposure in the bracket, allowing for near DSLR quality source files to bring into HDR software. That would be awesome
Versatile, well-designed camera app

I purchased Camera Pixels because it supports DNG (raw image) capture. Additionally, it packs tremendous flexibility into a very efficient user interface. It only takes two or three gestures to get what I want. And it can output highest-quality JPEG MAX images. It makes the iPhone competitive with my DSLR.
Excellent

A surprisingly decent and well-designed camera app with a nice UI and easy to use controls. When you consider that similar apps go for much more the choice is pretty easy. A lot of bang for your buck. Suggestions: A 2:1 aspect ratio option 1/48 and 1/120 shutter speeds The option to output a jpeg version when you shoot raw The online manual is incomplete
Interrupts music but is pretty nice otherwise

The program briefly interrupts any music playback when starting the program and when shooting images. I am shooting in DNG format, so I’m not sure if this is required in order to record it, since it is more data than JPEG.
Improvement

Hello, Can the shutter speed by improved to allow for very slow shutter speeds also such as 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 second speeds in a future update? Thank you
Nicely designed photo app.

The manual controls are easy to use. I like how the previous settings are automatically restored when the app is opened, when set to do so. Also, as far as I can tell, this is the only app I could find that can focus stack with DNG raw files. It also completes the focus stack capture very fast which can let me handhold my iPhone se for some shots. So far, I haven't encountered any bugs. Although I would hope they could update the histogram as it's a little crude and not as helpful as I would like.
Unique focus stacking capabilities!

I am working on a project where my main subject is always at about 8 inches from the iPhone and I want a sharp image to infinity. This obviously requires focus stacking. CameraPixels is the only app I found that can do both focus stacking and save to DNG file format. In CameraPixels I saved a Mode that shoots 10 images from 8 inches to infinity and the process is very easy. I then process the images on my computer using Zerene Stacker and I am very happy with the results. I also find the interface of CameraPixels very intuitive. Highly recommended!
Great bracketing

I have in some situations wish that I have my DSLR with me. Having this in my iPhone allows me to have the same controls especially the bracketing feature of the app. I like that you can do a lot of presets to speed things up I will try the focus stacking next.
Top notch bracketing app

I have been using a DSLR with Helicon Focus and Remote for years to capture close up images of model railroads for the hobby press. There are times where the DSLR is too large to insert into a scene for the shot needed and I decided to get a new iPhone XS to work in the tight spots. Great camera but I needed a bracketing app to get the necessary depth of field required for a truly professional result. After much research it looked like this was the best equipped app for the job. This app coupled with the XS may relegate my trusty Canon DSLR to a back up position in my photo work. The results are that good. It does all the things I need for proper focus bracketing and the images stack great on my MacBook Pro with the Helicon program. I'm a happy camper. Another thing. I had a small problem with one function (my fault...old eyes and a small icon on the screen) and needed help from their tech support. Absolutely great support and my self inflicted issue was resolved immediately. I've purchased my share of apps over the years but this is the first time that I have been so pleased that I felt compelled to write a review. Now, let's get a camerapixels app for complete wireless control mirrored to Mac with airdrop capability. Hey, I can dream, can't I?
Focus stacking for macro

Excellent app with many extraordinary features. Unique focus stacking capability allows you to set near and far point and specify the number of slices you want. Shoots up to 50 in seconds so it’s useful with slow moving live specimens. Wish there was a companion app to combine a stack but Helicon Focus for OSX and Windows works great albeit not iOS.
