How many times have you tried to capture artful images with your iPhone camera but were left wishing you had more features to work with? Slow Shutter Cam puts an end to mere snapshots and gives you some of the most powerful features of a DSLR camera. All this, in a package that fits in your pocket.

Slow Shutter Cam offers three capture modes to capture unique images:

MOTION BLUR: Equivalent to the shutter priority mode on a DSLR, the Motion Blur mode is perfect for creating ghost images, waterfall effects or suggesting movement in your photographs by adding a blur.

LIGHT TRAIL: The Light Trail mode allows you to 'paint' with light, show car light trails and fireworks or capture any other moving light in a unique way. Unlike shooting with a DSLR and being tied to specific rigid settings to obtain good results, the Light Trail mode takes care of the essentials, letting your creativity soar!

LOW LIGHT: In low light conditions, this capture mode allows the camera to accumulate every photon of light hitting the sensor. The longer the shutter speed, the more light it will accumulate. You can even fine-tune the result using the exposure compensation slider to achieve the exact effect you want!


Highlights:

● Full resolution (on every devices)
● Real time live preview
● Innovative 'Freeze' control
● Exposure compensation
● Tap to adjust focus/exposure
● Exposure lock (from shot to shot)
● Time-lapse Intervalometer
● Handy Self-Timer

With Slow Shutter Cam on your iPhone or iPod touch you get the features of a DSLR camera with the convenience of a device that you can drop in your pocket and take with you wherever you go. Download it now and put an end to mere snapshots!

Incredible!
skiphunt

I’ve had this app for years. Almost forgot I still had it and noticed it’s been regularly updated for the entire time. Took it for a spin and blown away how great it is. Dang! This app has aged and improved like a fine wine! Thrilled to have rediscovered this bona fide gem!!!


Great, simple app
LadyLuca

I’ve tried multiple slow shutter speed apps and this one is the easiest to use. Plus the results are great!


It’s good, but low light isn’t. (11pro max)
Bjdavis95

First things first I am using the 11 pro max. I tried using this for low light and night sky photos both, and while the app itself isn’t too bad, it just doesn’t work right. The low light photos come out blurry, iso messes with the color of the environment if it’s too low, but if it’s too high then the photo is way to bright, and the noise reduction doesn’t seem to help. I understand real iso should be adjusted to the correct level but iso should also be as low as possible to reduce noise in the photo and not change colors. If this is remotely what you’re going for and have an iPhone 11 I wouldn’t even bother because the low light on these phones outplays this app with the quality it produces, even if it can’t get super bright.


Better than nothing

The results from this app were truly disappointing. Images are a little better than the stock camera app, but still dark and grainy. Even with a tripod, the images are poor. A regrettable purchase.


Just found you

Can’t wait to try you out. I have a Photoshop club assignment on motion and this App looks like the ticket for learning motion. I am excited to start learning.


Good alternative for heavy dslr cameras
Yagnyata

I haven’t rated this app since time I purchased it cause I haven’t been satisfied with footage made by shaking hands. Then I bought a lightweight selfie stick with tripod, and right after, I tested this app again. So it works just perfect now. Just don’t forget to keep your phone still and you get better pics.


Wonderful App.
Rick-Knight

Does exactly what they say. Wonderful App. and you can’t beat the price.


Worth every coin.
Brooklyn Reborn

Depending on how hardcore, you as an artist, in the field of computer art of any kind, souls have this app. With just the little it has, the amount of abilities you can find in those is fascinating. I know I have created some pieces that I couldn’t creat any other way. This is probably that, diamond in the rough, one needs to have within their Arsenal! Thank you for the creation of this app. Highly recommended!!


I can't believe I didn't get this ages ago!!!
JoshuaBTech

What a wonderful photography app! You don't even need a tripod!


Great app!
ActuonGamerz

I love how much I do with this app! I do a lot of astrophotography, and this app does it’s suppose to do. The only downside is that the images are very grainy, even when I lower the ISO. Otherwise, this is the best app I’ve found so far.
