If you’ve been following us for some time, you may have already realized that we really believe that mobile photography can be as good as the one you do with the best SLR cameras on the market, we’ll never get tired of repeating that the photo is taken. by the photographer, not by the camera, and that a good photographer will take a good photo with any camera you put at your disposal.
As mobile phone cameras improve and, more importantly, they will continue to be, they are increasingly integrated into the photographic process as one more camera (which is also lightweight, versatile and accompanies us).
- And like any good camera.
- You don’t just need good optics and a good photographer behind it; You also need a good interface to control most of the possible aspects.
- For this.
- We offer you this list of the best applications on the market to control your mobile camera.
- Are you going to miss it?.
This app is a classic with many happy users behind it. It allows us to control a multitude of settings, almost as much as if it were an SLR camera: from white balance, shutter speed, ISO or exposure, to histogram, delayed shutter, burst shooting, image stabilizer, RAW capture, HDR or time lapse. Of course, it also includes many editing possibilities with more than 90 possible effects.
Definitely one of the apps to consider for your mobile camera, you can download the Premium version of this app from here (Android) or from here (IOS).
Although it is a well-known application and used as an image editor, it is also a complete tool as a camera, because it allows you to choose between the automatic mode in which the application controls all the settings, or the professional mode, where you can adjust everything you need: white balance, exposure, ISO, shutter speed or focus, in addition to adding some filters to the photo shot.
It’s a good combination if you want a powerful image editor and a good camera, even though this app is over?Seriously? And it doesn’t have as many fun filters and options as the previous ones.
You have it here for iOS and Android here
Another application very complete and highly recommended to control your mobile camera professionally. With all kinds of manual controls like shutter speed, ISO, white balance, exposure, timer, live color effects, skin smoothing, RAW shooting, multiple exposure, histogram?true wonder :-).
You can download it for Android here.
Another very complete application to take pictures manually with your mobile phone. With this application you can work in RAW, you have self-help, slow motion, HDR, low light, exposure control, bursts, stabilizer, ISO, shutter, white balance and 78 filters and effects available (and a long one, etc. ) .
You can buy it here for IOS
Another application with an interface full of settings that allow you to control each of the shooting settings. White balance, exposure, ISO, shutter speed, EXIF viewfinder, composition patterns. Highly appreciated by its users and if you try it, safe by equally ;).

It’s a classic for IOS users. It is very easy to use and very complete in terms of all the settings you may need in manual mode: white balance, ISO, focus, shutter speed, EXIF viewer, guides to help you in your compositions, and a long etcetera.

I can’t think of anything that comes to mind in terms of shooting and editing that this application doesn’t have: exposure control, shutter speed, RAW format, ISO, default settings (night mode, action?), EXIF data analysis, and much more, all in a very visual and easy-to-use interface.
You can find it for iOS here or for Android here.
Another application to consider and also free. It has a multitude of controls and editing possibilities: image stabilization, burst shooting, timer, contrast, brightness, exposure, white balance, ISO and many other effects to experiment with when processing or taking photos.

To keep the automatic camera that your mobile probably offers, with the number of apps that exist today, is to lose many good images and the ability to get the most out of your mobile phone’s camera.
Each of the above applications will fulfill the purpose of working in manual mode by controlling all the shooting settings, you know that’s what it’s all about, abandoning the automatic and convoluting with the manual, and sometimes it seems that in a small format it gives less impression than when you play with our SLR.
If you found it helpful, I’d love you to share it so that as many people as possible benefit from it. Thank you very much and see you next time.
