Slow Shutter Cam: 100 Photo Apps, Day 82
What I like: You’re not able to use manual controls to set the shutter speed with the iPhone. The solution? With Slow Shutter Cam, you can attempt to replicate the look of images shot with a slow shutter speed.
From the app maker:
Slow Shutter Cam offers three capture modes to capture unique images: AUTOMATIC: Equivalent to the shutter priority mode on a DSLR, the Automatic mode is perfect for creating ghost images, waterfall effects or suggesting movement in your photographs by adding a blur. This mode also features automatic exposure compensation so that your pictures are always perfectly exposed, no matter the shutter speed selected! MANUAL: In low light conditions, the Manual 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! 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.
