Discover the power of photography with Open Camera, a completely free, open-source Camera app that brings a host of advanced features right to your fingertips. Whether you're a professional photographer or just love snapping photos, Open Camera has something for everyone.
One of its standout features is the auto-level option, ensuring your pictures are perfectly level no matter how you hold your device. Dive deep into your camera's capabilities with support for scene modes, color effects, white balance, ISO settings, exposure compensation/lock, and even a "screen flash" for selfies. Capture stunning HD videos and explore more creative avenues with your photography.
Enhance your shooting experience with handy remote controls like a timer with an optional voice countdown and an auto-repeat mode with a configurable delay. You can even take photos remotely by making a noise, adding a fun and unique twist to your photography sessions.
Customize your experience with configurable volume keys and a user-friendly interface. The app also offers an upside-down preview option, ideal for use with attachable lenses. Overlay grids and crop guides to help you compose your shots perfectly.
For those who love to document their adventures, Open Camera supports optional GPS location tagging (geotagging) for both photos and videos, with compass direction included for photos. Add date and timestamp, location coordinates, and custom text to your photos, or store date/time and location as video subtitles in .SRT format. If privacy is a concern, you can even remove device exif metadata from your photos.
Expand your creative horizons with features like panorama mode (including for the front camera), HDR with auto-alignment and ghost removal, and exposure bracketing. Open Camera also leverages the Camera2 API for manual controls, burst mode, RAW (DNG) file support, camera vendor extensions, slow motion video, and log profile video.
Improve your photo quality with noise reduction (including a low light night mode) and dynamic range optimization modes. For those who need precise control, options for on-screen histogram, zebra stripes, and focus peaking are available. Additionally, focus bracketing mode allows you to capture multiple images at different focus distances for later stacking.
Best of all, Open Camera is completely free and contains no third-party ads within the app itself. While some features may vary depending on your device's hardware, camera capabilities, and Android version, you can explore all possibilities at the Open Camera website: http://opencamera.org.uk/, where you can also find links to the source code.
