Camera FV-5 2.61
But some photography apps are more suitable for professional users, while others provide easy tools to help out amateur photographers with their work and to enhance their pictures. Camera FV-5 Lite is definitely an app for those passionate about photography and for those who wish to take professional pictures.
Sleek interface that comes with instructions
Not all apps have tutorials incorporated, but it's nice to come across those that do especially if they're camera apps. Because they only have icons on the screen, new users could use tips to understand the layout better.
Camera FV-5 Lite opens with a highly comprehensive tutorial that shows you what each icon does and how to access features to take the best pictures. The screen leaves plenty of space for the camera, while each icon incorporates a menu with more options to access.
Adjust settings
There are many things you can do with this app, adjust image resolution to up to 640x480, enable sounds for taking pictures and assign functions to volume keys. You can save images into two formats, jpg or png, adjust the volume and change the storage location.
Geotagging can also be turned on and you can adjust image parameters to your liking. It also comes with many light metering modes and the option of changing exposure compensation with the tap of one finger.
The menu provides users with the possibility of changing exposure bracketing, enabling an intervalometer, setting a timer or choosing one of the many flash modes available.
Take professional pictures
White balance can be changed, as well as focus mode. The app provides probably the closest image quality to that of a DSLR camera, however the free version doesn't come with a high image resolution and for more features users must upgrade to premium for 3.66$.
Moreover, the app can be used as a raw editor for images but only if they were snapped with an Android device running Lollipop. The app comes with RAW capture in DNG format, together with 10 composition grid overlays and 9 crop guides available.

The free version is quite limited, especially when it comes to image resolution so you might think about upgrading if you like the app. |

It requires Android version 2.2 or later, but some features won't work unless you have Lollipop installed. |
A great camera app for snapping pictures and recording videos.
