A while back, I told you about Camera++, an advanced camera application designed for both the novice and professional, that focuses on how an image is taken rather than editing. Camera++ offers an array of features and different modes so that users have more control over configuring and adjusting their images to capture the picture shot.
A new version is now available to download and purchase that brings with it bug fixes, UI optimizations, and additional options as shown below.
- Added video modes (with multiple resolutions, bit rate mode and bit rate settings)
- 1.1. Video - standard video recording at 30 FPS, with multiple resolutions available
- 1.2. HDR video - Passport only, records HDR video at 30 FPS, with multiple resolutions available
- 1.3. Fast video - records video at 60 FPS, available resolutions depend on hardware
- UI optimizations for better contrast
- Some bug fixes
- New permission MICROPHONE must be granted to enable video recording
Camera++ is priced at $2.99 and is compatible with all BlackBerry 10 devices.

thx
I have this app on my Z30 but it will not update - still on V1.1.3 is this because my OS is 10.2.1?
Yes, starting from version 2 Camera++ requires OS 10.3.x, the last update I believe requires 10.3.1
Nice app. I'm trying to get used to all the settings.

Is there a way to make this app launch when the camera icon is used, in place of the native app?
Posted via CB10
I've had this bookmarked for quite a while. One day I should crack open the man-purse and buy it.

I'd be happy with a app that makes the camera focus in the evening. BlackBerry in the day iPod in the evening.

Great app and video is a nice addition.

I love this app and especially Effetica Pro!
I have impressed many ios & android users with my photos taken on my Q10.
Thanks Dev!

Get a Passport and blow them away... ;-)

Installed it as I cannot get the stock camera to focus. Get a constant fast clicking when running the app, is this normal?
Posted via CB10
you may have a hardware issue. I have 3 devices and the app runs perfectly on all of them, no extra sound
Nice, great app!!!

Just downloaded the app earlier this week, and am very impressed...haven't even scratched the surface.

Can the app replace the camera shortcut on the home and lock screen?

Consider also downloading User Guide from official website (v3.0.0), will help you get started :)
I don't know how to read sorry

Purchased. Can't wait to give this app a shot on my Passport and Z30
The White Knight-BlackBerry Passport
is there anyway to set this to the default camera softbutton on the home screen?
Nope
Posted via CB10
That would be a great option to have.

Before I re-install this app, someone please tell me if the default photo is now 4:3 and not 1:1. I don't know why anyone who would pay for a camera app would use 1:1 since it's just a crop. I can't be bothered to make the changes for every single shooting mode every time I update my OS via AutoLoader. Unless an option to change the ratio globally is implemented, I won't be using this app. Got screwed once taking 1:1 photos when I had switched to HDR and not willing to have that happen again.
It's adapting to your screen size after this update. So if your display is squared, then, yes, it will be back to 1:1 ratio.
Posted via CB10
I get that but it shouldn't. This is supposed to be a professional grade app for those who want better photos but no professional would want a 1:1 photo which is simply a crop of a 4:3. Give me the full photo and I will crop it myself later if I want to. But even if it does initially default to 1:1, what's annoying is that you need to change the ratio for every shooting mode. So say for example I'm in normal mode and I change the ratio to 4:3, then switch to HDR, I'm back to 1:1. I switch HDR to 4:3 and now go to Burst Mode and again back to 1:1. This change needs to take effect globally. Anyway, that's just my opinion.
You can spend like 2 min, by going through all capture modes and set resolution to 4:3 aspect ratio. When you reinstall the OS, just make backup, app settings will be stored in that backup :) I guess the choice was to maximally keep with the stock camera app in terms of default settings.
Backups are for amateurs :)
Yes, those who "love" their data and their time... ;-)

It remembers whatever resolution you set since you last use the application.

I really wish the HDR video was an option for the Z30!! I would buy this in a second if it was.
I wish I could have it on Z10 too, but alas, hardware limitations :)
Posted via CB10
Hi! Love what I am reading about your app. Do you think quality slow motion will be included soon?
I like my coffee BlackBerry Black! What?
It's not my app :D I'm just a beta tester
Posted via CB10
Dude, do you even know what HDR is?
Posted via fantastic BlackBerry Passport. Damn, this thing is so awesome, that I am short of words to describe it's awesomenes. Like Majestic As...
HDR video...?
Now that's some news ;-)
• Passposted while waiting for the Z-lider.... •
Yes, I do. This update makes it so that you can do HDR Video, but only on a Passport.
Good to see updates that enhance, I use this camera before I use the stock camera.

I've only ever used it 3 or 4 times... It's pretty good though!

I'm not seeing the update for either Q10SQN100-2/10.2.1.3253 or my Z10 running a 10.3.1xxxx leak.

First media app I install after OS install. Great quiet mode lol

Is that so? FIRST app and nobody cares bro!
All smartphones bow to my BlackBerry Passport
Don't get all "Baltimore" on me. Please, have mercy on my comment - we kid because we hurt :-(
The app (along with Effetica Pro) really is great. The number of options take some time to get the hang of, but they really improve upon the OS10.3.1 stock camera.
I haven't played around with the video recording options yet, but you'll be the FIRST to know when I do.
[Hopefully NOT edited by admin to be fair lol. ;)] Frosty White Q10/10.3.1.2726 CB10
I've seen you kids playing your little "first" game for years here on crackberry. Very clever and not getting old at all.
Making jokes in light of the Baltimore situation is really setting a classy standard here. Bravo.

When things start to be considered "off-limits" that's when we all lose.
Look a little closer to the comment. Don't know your background, but those of us that lived through and were just Junior High kids through the Washington Heights riots and looting/state of emergency after the the cops killed Kiko in '92 in NYC are truly hurting seeing what's going on in Baltimore.
But losing humor and trying to censor with "too soon/off-limits" is a big "no-no". Respectfully disagree with your "having class" argument. I wouldn't want to be from whichever politically correct town/city/country/state of mind you're from.

I thought your Baltimore comment was funny. How many people have used the term "going postal"?
Don't be a hypocrite people!
