The best camera apps for iphone

The native Camera application that comes to us installed by default with our iPhone meets the expectations of many of the users. However, if you are more demanding, in the App Store there are many alternative options with additional functions, controls, filters and other effects that are worth checking out. Choosing which ones are the best can be a bit of a pretentious attempt. Despite this, today we offer you a small selection among those considered as "best" that, in any case, you can take as a starting point for your own exploration.

Obscura 2

Obscura has a simple glide-based user interface. Everything you need is at your fingertips, since it has been designed precisely for this. You can capture photos in RAW, HEIC, and JPG formats , Life Photos, and in-depth portraits or images on newer iPhones. It has tools to adjust white balance, exposure and focus, as well as ISO and shutter speed, plus a histogram to adjust exposure. It includes 19 filters that you can use live or in post-processing, and gives you information on all the metadata.

Halide

Halide is a favorite of many users, especially since it offers portrait mode for people on the iPhone XR. But in addition, it has a rich range of features among which we can highlight manual controls for shutter speed, ISO, white balance, as well as a live histogram that allows perfecting the exposure. Its interface is also slip-based and allows you to capture photos in RAW, JPG, TIFF or HEIC formats.

Halide has just added a new color histogram, which helps preserve color details and make them stand out.

Procam 6

We conclude with ProCam 6, a camera app for the iPhone that also offers full manual control for ISO, shutter speed, white balance, focus, as well as built-in alerts for overexposure, and live information for ISO or shutter. All this in order to achieve the best possible photography.

You can also choose the frame rate and video resolution. And it has multiple shooting modes such as Night Mode, Burst Mode or 3D Photos. Like previous applications, it allows you to capture RAW, JPG, TIFF and HEIF images, and has a live light level histogram.

For editing after capturing a photo, ProCam 6 includes 60 filters, 17 lenses for fun effects, multiple adjustment tools and video editing, custom profiles to save your favorite shooting modes and camera settings, and supports Shortcuts Siri.
