## Description

mcamera extends your browser camera controls with manual options not available in the standard app: focus distance, ISO, shutter speed, and white balance.

Use longer shutter speeds for light trails or smooth water, and keep ISO low to minimize noise for cleaner pro RAW photos.

## Review summary

Users praise Manual Camera for strong manual controls (focus, ISO, exposure) and better low-light/astronomy performance, with sharp results and a usable free trial. However, reviews repeatedly note a steep paywall, minimal free functionality, and gaps like no front-lens/external-lens support, limited long-exposure options, and permission issues. Some stability and UI quirks exist. Overall, it’s valuable for experienced users seeking manual control, but notable gaps limit broader, beginner-friendly use.

### Pros

- Provides manual control over focus, ISO, and exposure, beyond the stock iPhone camera.
- Helpful for low-light and astronomy photography by enabling longer/shutter speed adjustments.
- Delivers sharper photos with adjustable manual settings.
- Appeals to enthusiasts seeking more control than the stock camera.
- Free trial allows testing some features before committing to purchase.

### Cons

- Free version is very limited or effectively unusable without paying.
- Limited exposure options (very short maximum shutter speeds; no long exposures).
- Lacks support for external lenses/telephoto mindset and has no front-facing camera (selfie) support.
- Permissions/settings issues (no option to grant access to Photos) and occasional stability/UI quirks.
- User reports of crashes or being knocked out of the app and alignment/UI inconsistencies.
