My vision of interface

Hi,

I take a lot of pics using OPO, I use many modes, many parameters, so I have little experience in this matter. I created my dream interface for Bacon Camera. It is strongly based on stock version, but I set many options to be just under finger. Of course this project is created only in photoshop :).

Main view

On left size there are photography modes (explanation later):

Manual

Fx

Scene

Pic tuning

Person

Burst

On the right you can see functions that work globally, and there are connected with shutter (explanation later):

front/back camera

flash

time related functions

grids and graphs

I added button for recording, in case: "Look there! It is unicorn!"

Changing from Camera-Video-Pano it is possible by swiping on all area of viewfinder (like in ColorOS camera).

Manual

Not much changed, added button for Zero Shutter Lag, and buttons for reset settings:

Reset current - resets all settings from Manual mode

Reset all - resets global settings

Similar mechanics is proposed for other modes.

If you enter to any menu, button changes colour to green.

Fx

I moved here HDR (it is very often mode), also I created icons for DSLR modes. ZSL is always on here, as green button shows.

Scene

You can choose scenes using convenient slider :).

Picture Tune

This mode it's just options taken from deeper menus. You can change presets using slider.

Person

Here we have similar situation like before. I don't know how this settings works with ZSL, but I putted toggle here.

Burst

I moved here exposure bracket, and added theoretically possible modes :D.

Burst - I used this option in CameraNext Mod from COS12.1 (and I'm surprised, that this mod is not ported to mighty Bacon Camera). If you set shutter speed for 1/5000 and use burst, you can take very sharp pictures of moving objects.

Shutter bracket - It is very similar idea to Exposure bracket (standard HDR but without merging taken pictures), so maybe it is possible to make burst photos with shutter speed. This method is used in HDR+ by Google. With this mode, maybe, we could obtain similar effects merging pictures on PC. It is just concept :).

Zoom

If you zoom view using pinch gesture you can choose:

Flash

Nothing special, I think it is more convenient way.

Time

Standard

Grids and graphs

I think fast access to histogram is crucial, but it is also important to turn off it fast :). I didn't created custom icons here for all grids.

That is all. I could create similar presentation for video, unfortunately, I don't have more time, but I think you caught my drift. Still, it is just ideas.
