1Shot camera 1.1.2.7

Gain more control over your phone's camera with a powerful dedicated application
To make the most of the built-in camera of a mobile phone it is often necessary to resort to a third-party app that can provide full control over the capabilities of the capture device.

For Windows Phone users the choice is varied, as there are quite a few tools that offer some advanced functionality in this respect and 1Shot camera is among them.

Clean and well organized front-end

This utility greets you with a simple interface, with smooth graphics and a pretty neatly structured arrangement of all the available tools and controls, which are set conveniently for ease of access.

The live view is well-sized and spans almost across the entire display, with a bit of space reserved for the menus at the top and bottom areas of the screen. Also, the transparent controls shown in the upper side will not obstruct the view too much.

Basic or advanced modes at your fingertips

By default, 1Shot camera brings you a simpler mode of operation, with a smaller set of commands at hand, but you can switch on the advanced controls from the "Settings" menu and enjoy the full power of this app.

With this app you can set a lot of parameters manually and there is even a manual focus setting you can activate. Choosing the desired exposure, ISO or aperture values is easy to do and picking the most appropriate white balance settings is also one tap away.

The visual aids that can be activated include the focus brackets, a horizontal level shown at the bottom of the screen and there are also 4 framing grids you can choose from.

Simple configurations and image editing at a glance

Besides the built-in timer and extended support for multiple resolutions, 1Shot camera offers you plenty of customizations for both advanced and basic modes, manual burst capture and bracketing value settings

There is a neat Camera Roll viewer tool included in the package that will make it possible for you to check out the captured snapshots and it allows you to turn them into high-resolution pics, while also providing some neat filters and effects.

The utility has in store a few basic editing functions that you can use to flip or rotate the photos and there is a pretty cool "Color Pop" module for tinkering with the hues and nuances of each image you select.
