It includes unlimited shutter speed, manual ISO, resume capture for multiple exposures, real-time live preview, and innovative controls like Freeze and Blur Strength.

## Review summary

Slow Shutter Cam is praised for its creative long-exposure/ICM capabilities and flexible artistic controls, plus value and classroom use. However, multiple reviews cite blurry results, limited shutter options, gallery import restrictions, and stability issues, along with requests for manual focus/exposure controls and RAW output.

### Pros

- Excellent for creative long-exposure and ICM photography (waterfalls, light trails, embers) with strong results.
- Rich set of unique settings and controls that encourage experimentation and artistic work.
- Good value for money—worth the one-time purchase.
- Long-term, classroom-friendly tool that supports art and creative projects.

### Cons

- Blurred or inconsistent image quality reported by multiple users, regardless of settings.
- Limited exposure options (only 0.5s, 1s, and 4x) and requests for RAW/48MP output.
- Stability issues such as black screens or app crashes requiring restarts.
- Inability to import or edit existing photos from the gallery (no gallery import).
- Missing core controls like manual focus and exposure sliders (and some HDR options) with users wishing for additional features.
