thanks for the response! after testing the other 3 other apps i created the poll for, I re-bought yours for good :good: I just couldn't go without it after using it! can't wait to see what your future updates bring!

Concerning Light paint, I love that feature a lot! I can't wait for it to get unbuggy and you recommend anything to view RAW images? and let me know if you need any testers, I've been looking for a good photography app for a while and am gonna go crazy taking pics with Proshot!!
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
Raw picture viewers are generally the programs which allow raw editing, even computers don't have raw viewer just because of amount of processing needs to be done to even show thumbnails. Plus it's a raw image so u basically have all the information to make it look the way u like. Though I would very much like raw viewer but not a big deal.

I generally take JPEG+raw to have JPEG as a preview.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
What are you guys using to view RAW files on your phones? I know my HTC could view them but the gallery I have now can't decode it? Might check out HTC's gallery pack, might work.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] nsmal24:
Let me clarify my statement about Proshot, it works AWESOME all of the time. The dev already described why the shutter speed might vary slightly in EXIF due to rounding inconsistencies. That's all I was talking about.

It is amazing that he was able to release this feature (true shutter priority) that no one else on Android has.

To the dev, does the current camera api allow you to build an autoiso program (min/max iso with min shutter)? That would make your camera app even more powerful.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] edee1337:
There isn't a direct API for it, but it's hackable just like shutter priority. I haven't done it yet cause I don't know where to fit it in the UI haha
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] nsmal24:
Well put it on the wishlist I guess. Thanks again for your hard work. Proshot is some nice work.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
I agree, bought it the other day. Just have one issue. Opening RAW
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] edee1337:
You can use the share button in ProShot to import RAW files directly into free apps like Photoshop Express and Snapseed. Adding the functionality into ProShot would introduce too much bloat and I want to focus more on the camera itself :)
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] cutmylifein2:
Can u add HDR+ and option for SLO MO videos.. ??? it would make the app ultimate

1. Can u please add HDR+ option and Slo Mo video as then i would not open any other app.. this app will have it all..

2. (Just an advice and my opinion) it would be awesome if the UI is somewhat like samsung galaxy camera UI and LG V10/g5 camera UI... as i feel it will be further easy and user friendly.

3. additional feature like live photos in Camera MX would make this app invincible

[MENTION=3853403]edee1337[/MENTION] since an update orientation (in gallery apps/previews) seems to be always rotated 90 degrees. Is it just my settings or some issue?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] edee1337:
Are they rotated in ProShot or only other galleries? Is it with front camera or rear camera? Are you using a custom ROM?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
Only in galleries, rear camera I don't use front camera as much. I'm on Benzo (custom) ROM, however it was good on older version. I'll check in a bit how it looks on computer.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] blankit:
Off topic but anyone what those two sensors next to the camera are?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
U mean flash? Or focus sensor?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] blankit:
There are two sensors next to the flash, those are focus sensors?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
If what I remember is correct yes they r, but someone can confirm.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] firoz3321:
Its laser auto focus. One should be laser transmitter while the other should be laser receiver to identify the distance. And hence focus on the subject based on the distance.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Id rather not do that to be honest. I appreciate that you'd like to focus on the camera but I'm sure people would like to know that they've taken a good pic before they upload it or copy it over for viewing.. It's twice as much work and you could end up losing a shot which you'll never get again.

Also yesterday my pics all came upside down lol. Really bizarre.

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ----------

No this happened to me too. Rebooting fixed it.

For anyone wanting to open Raw files and doesn't want to mess about with uploading them blind. Here's an app which is free and easy to use. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sharpened.androidfileviewer&hl=en_GB
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
I rebooted and it didn't fix the orientation issue and then I realized my mistake : I had restricted proshot from sensor access once approved orientation is correct.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Nice one will check mine.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] edee1337:
I understand it'd be easier in-app, but the problem is it takes several seconds to decode and produce a Bitmap preview anyways, which then leads to a huge memory and CPU spike causing the app slow down a lot. You wouldn't be able to scroll through DNGs like you could JPEGs because the phone would have to constantly be loading and dumping very large chunks of memory. If a more performant method arises, I'll definitely add it to ProShot!
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
I know what you mean, I do. But vs uploading then checking I think it's a fair trade off. The apps good as is mate. Even without RAW. But as it's an option to take raw shots, it creates the need to view them.

I'm fine with the method I now have.

What about linking the app to another app? So instead of showing a preview of the snap and the upload option, have an option to view in another app? Least that way you don't have to open the other app and or go through a file manager.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drago10029:
anyone using proshots getting the black screen on the camera? It doesn't happen too much but it's something I noticed so thought I would mention it :p wish I could replicate it.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
No not as yet. Running aosip.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] edee1337:
Adobe does have an API for that, it's on the todo list :)

---------- Post added at 10:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

If you rotate your phone does the UI reappear? Rotating causes basically everything to reset.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Trijunction:
Hi .. The proshot app has huge shutter lag for me even in automode.. I am sure its the not the default feature of the app.. What am I missing ? I am on purenexus ROM. Thanks in advance !
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
Never had lag, try cleaning data and cache for app (get rid of all the settings u changed)
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drago10029:
no, rotating, autofocusing, changing menus do not fix it. but i'll let you know i just updated!
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
What rom, kernel combination are you using
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drago10029:
disrgard my complaints lol i just updated the app and no kernel/ROM/etc. all stock here, my 6P is a virgin
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Shaelz:
Really sorry if this question has already been answered - but do any of these apps support the HDR+ feature ? I saw that pro-shot does not.. i find this to be one of the most important hardware features of the whole phone since the shots often look boring albeit more realistic with the mode off..
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
Technically manual camera apps take raw images so u can easily get HDR+ effects afterwards. And if you don't really want raw images then there are lot of normal camera apps doing much more processing than just HDR+. But yes as of now I've not seen any manual camera app supporting HDR+

@edee1337 is license check the only way to avoid piracy? I don't like gapps on my phone, license check is the only reason I have to use gapps services.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] redsmith:
[MENTION=3853403]edee1337[/MENTION], ProShot has become my favorite manual camera app by FAR. I love that even with a shutter speed of 0.2 sec, the live view is still fast, unlike some other apps which will render it slow as molasses. That said, is there any hope of increasing the exposure time on the 6P and 5X? 0.2 sec is not nearly enough to do some "tripod" photography. I'd love to have that option because this is the best smartphone camera I have ever owned. Thanks for your work!
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
[MENTION=3853403]edee1337[/MENTION] Camera FV5 managed to add control over the +/- exposure value for the 6p. It works, just doesn't adjust in the display. But the final photo is perfect. Any chance you could have a look at getting that feature in. FV5 is to buggy to use and rely on.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
The max shutter speed is locked down beyond any devs control. Take your concern to Google, this is the only way they'll listen. Hopefully enough people have been doing this because .2 sec is not nearly enough for anything night related.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Pro shot is definitely a great app.. I was happy to pay for it, knowing it'll get better. I have one gripe though, when taking a pic in the dark, the flashlight goes a bit mental. On focus, nothing happened. Then when I took the pic it flashed too early, then continually focused, with the light going on and off over and over. The pics I got were bad. One of them was good, out of 3.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Slightly out of focus due to the flash not coming on when I touched the screen.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
I know this kind of software must be really hard to work with and I want to love the app too, has anyone else had any similar issues with flash when in the dark around 2 feet away from the subject.? Cheers
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
Yes noticed this to. When flash or light is set to on is messes with focus. Luckily the dev is involved in this thread and people don't need to run to the playstore and give a bad rating for an otherwise fantastic app.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] edee1337:
When you say shutter lag, do you mean the time between pressing the camera button and taking a photo is long, or is the viewfinder is refreshing slowly? Or is the app just running slow? It's really hard to debug issues on custom ROMs cause those authors can change anything that will affect apps :/

---------- Post added at 09:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 PM ----------

I'm working on adding an HDR+ mode to ProShot, but I'm not getting the results I want just yet.

Unfortunately the shutter speed is locked by the hardware, there's no way to push past it. It's for that reason I'm thinking of putting more development into Light Painting mode.

I could look into that, I know how to do it :) But is changing the EC that useful when you can't see the changes in the viewfinder?

Yes I'm sorry about the flash issues, they're known. Google's API for flash is really really bad and has such different behavior on different devices. I plan to rewrite that code
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
Actually yes it is very useful...even without preview it only takes a second to look at the jpeg exposure (or histogram) And know if you should boost it and lower it a bit. RAW tends to be much more exposed so lowering the ev by -.5 or -.7 seems to work rather nicely for RAW (depending on subject).

It's a nice convenience once you can predict what's gonna happen.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Nah don't worry fella. Like I said I do like it, was more to bring to your attention rather than have a moan. ;)
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] wis3m0nkey:
http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/camera-freedcam-4-0-3-t3115548 this can be interesting, I've not tried it yet
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
I tried it yesterday when I seen your post. It's a mess. We'll see where they go with it. Could be decent. But right now on the 6p anyways proceed with caution lol.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] opasx:
grabbed ProShot based on the recommendations here and wow, it works so well.

I will be 100% I have no idea what all the options are but seeing the focus actually indicate plainly for me that it is set helps me (I dont always have my glasses on, so everything looks blurry when I look at the screen...)

brilliant app, well worth the small cost for me.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] kho923:
I downloaded the ProShot app, but every time I use the camera shortcut (double power button), the camera takes forever to load. I've tried clearing the cache and reinstalling the app, but nothings seems to work. I'm on Pure Nexus ROM and Elemental X kernel. Any thoughts on how to fix this problem?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Kind of given up on pro shot now, practicality had taken over, too many bugs especially for a paid for app, its a mess.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
Its funny you know, because if it works fine on my 6p...it should work fine on any 6p. It's far from a mess. The only issue I have with it currently is it won't focus when trying to use flash. But there isn't one 3rd party camera app that doesn't have some issue. The only camera app honest to god that works flawless is google camera for me. But most of the time I want those RAW files.

However at this very time, my most used and go to camera app is Snap Camera.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
The RAW files can't be viewed without secondary software, fair enough i appreciate the need for a smaller app.

Flash goes mental when you use it, period. There is no excuse for this, i've blinded people when my phone was viewing pictures just because i turned the flash on, you talk about your phone as if it's amazing, then blind them even after pictures are taken just because an app went rogue.

Rotation does not work properly, it lags and then it doesn't work at all, then at times it simply flips pics upside down.

I'm sorry, but stopping now because i don't need to go on, this is enough for me to call this app a mess, it has promise yes, but jesus it needs these issue fixing quickly, i'm not normally quick to judge (the amoun of money i've spent on apps, £300 on black ops 3 PC, £12 on next launcher, £11 on SPB shell 3D, to name but a few, i buy all my apps, for two reasons, i'm not cheap and i prefer updates, but this is unacceptable. I'm sorry.

I stand by my statement, and as a consumer i have a right to, no amount of saying it works for me will change that, 8 roms in and i feel the same, that's a pretty strong repertoire of failure.

Promise yes, but not a finished product, no urgency to fix them either.

The stock camera or snap camera works perfectly, even with the 2nd API, another app i paid for and haven't used, along with FV camera, haven't used since the Desire HD days.

Crazy.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drago10029:
Please realize a few things, your situation is isolated. from the looking at the poll and the comments here, the app seems like a work in progress but not definitely not "a mess".

You're situation is isolated, and you speak pretty nasty about the dev. he didn't put out a bad app, you just have a lot of problems that you probably should email him about.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
I agree. Its not a mess. He also just recently stated to the dev that he was just bringing some things to his attention....give the dev some time to fix things and push a release at least.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drago10029:
I agree, I had some gripes with proshot too, but brought it out in a much more constructive way. That's all we ask for, and it's kinda XDA culture.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
Sorry i didn't meant to come across like that, I do like the app i just found some of the problems meant that i couldn't use it for a day to day camera app.

Wasn't having a great day and shouldn't have took it out here.

My apologies.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drakvl:
if htc 10 has the same sensor, are there any chance to port the libs and camera app in a future? thanks.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] dlads:
I'm on the fence about getting the m10. Huge fan of HTC. The camera is supposed to be amazing, also was using the lg g5 today, that camera is phenomenal. The wide view lense is crazy, 130 degree I think. You can fit so much on one pic, zoom is to notch too. Going to take some beating.

[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] alessandro_xda:
are you running pure nexus rom?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] JuannTwo3:
Proshot has been versatile and full featured. One favorite in particular would be the "light painting" mode which has led to some nice results. Only con would be an occasional crash when using the double press power button shortcut.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] chewy74:
I am and it does fc as soon as a pic is taken
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] alessandro_xda:

[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] chewy74:

but unfortunetely it isn't

(with the stock rom camera fv-5 works)
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] chewy74:
Yea, I'd say maybe go to their g+ community and ask about it...
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
It works but not without many crashes. It doesn't make any difference if I'm stock, pure Nexus, DU etc. Camera FV-5 crashes on this phone.

Manual exposure is working in Android n preview 3 at least in google camera. Not working in camera v5.

Enviado do meu Nexus 6P através de Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
That's because the devs are gonna have to update their apps. That goes for all third party apps. Finally Google. Now only if they'd increase exposure time a bit.

Out of curiosity, what's the version number of Google camera in preview 3?
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Fustigador:
3.2.045

I got flash sync problems in darkness with A Better Camera, Camera FV-5 and ProShot. Pictures are generally out of focus, over/under exposed. It's working fine with Google Camera.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] sabesh:
In Proshot - Is it possible to set it up so that it focuses, sets exposure and releases shutter with one touch? Thx.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Jyotirdeb:
In marshmallow you cannot set exposure since google removed it.But in N preview 3 you can set exposure (stock google app).Also for exposure to work the devs have to update their support for N.Wait till N releases and we might get exposure for any app!
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Bwyan Benton:
With preview 3 exposure works in stock Google camera, proshot & snap camera. Camera fv-5 doesn't work because they did a work around to allow exposure compensation to work in marshmallow (without live preview) but it still works.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Jyotirdeb:
Yup dont know about proshot but stock camera app has exposure settings.It is not the app but for exposure to work certain frameworks are required which is unavailable in MM but present in N preview 3.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] drakvl:
Proshot is excellent with the zoom preview for focus, camera fv-5 go now for this way too, i miss the iso 500 value for night shots, because it has iso 400 > 800, with iso 500 , shutter 1/8s, is a decent configuration for pics with no blur.

[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] Eric214:
Manuel Camera I'm using is the latest (3.6) and I can't seem to be able to change the aperture. So I'm guessing no manual exposure is available. I can adjust shutter speed just not aperture.
