645 PRO Mk III App Reviews

The best camera app hands down & has remained that way for a long time. Yes, the + & - parameters are difficult especially with big dumb thumbs like mine. But, this is the closest to an actual camera as it gets & the features are huge. Also, a very healthy & helpful manual component alongside it. Get it. Completely worth the price.

This app does not have the smoothness of some manual photo apps – for example, you have to repeatedly and laboriously hit a series of plus or minus signs to set your parameters. Further, it has reduced the longest shutter speed from 1/2 to 1/3 sec. But it has a cool looking interface and for those that are looking to apply a lot of true photographic filters (film type, etc.) this is a worthwhile app to have in your arsenal.

I wrote a bad review of the app before because it kept crashing, but it turns out you should turn off your phone after you downloaded the app to make sure its stable (somewhat). It still crashes quite frequently but at least I manage to take some pictures. The quality of the pictures is great. Dont expect the same quality youd get from raw files in a DSLR obviously but for a phone, having a non compressed image is really a good thing to have. As for the interface, its somewhat gimmicky but it works most of the time. One nice thing is the picture styles. Dont expect to have the same emulation as in a dedicated software, but the black and white conversation is by far the best Ive seen in an app, its really a pleasure to use.

Can only take one picture ! Then bug and need to kill/restart app !!!

A great photo app. Please consider the following features: 1. Option to turn on the flash before snapping the picture - to focus in the dark; 2. Option to manually set the focus - like a focus slider or so;

The image quality is as good as the iPhone camera can deliver you. Just beware that it runs a bit slow on the iPhone 4, but its still pretty usable!

645 Pro is an amazing photo app. I just miss the ability to control the AE (exposure) point such as his "brother" PureShot. I hope I a future version they add this option.

I love this app!

I needed it for uncompressed high quality photos from the iPhone and the quality is much better than the jpegs from Apples Cam.

Firstly, image quality is INDEED better, because images are saved with less compression. That alone is useful; it makes a big difference when looking at details However, usability is a big problem. Whereever theres switch, there is display to show the current setting of it. However, the display is not on the switch; it is on the opposite end of the screen. Thus, you are constantly looking forth and back. Instead of tapping a displayed setting, you have to tap a button somewhere else (and looking quite different). In addition, the app crashes. It crashed only in 5-10% of cases in the past, so it was relatively usable, but it crashes nearly always. Another problem is that it needs lots of battery. So its not for everyday, and not for outdoors/hiking. And its slow. I like the different film formats, the different film characteristics and the filters. Most disappointingly, it doesnt let you influence exposure time or ISO setting other than AE locking. Theres no exposure correction (+1, ...)

hello the app is very good but not stabil. I take two Fotos and the App goes down. I take one Picture and thats all. I take more pictures but this were not saved. Please pleaee please Update urgently.

...leider....:-(

Ive tried many, many photo apps but nothing compares with 645 PRO Mk III. I especially like being able to select from the various "film" formats provided. I use this app exclusively and highly recommend it.

I just like it. Many options you will not find in other apps.

I read about it online and I felt I had to get it right away. I bought and started testing it out until my iPhone 4s started overheating big time (upper right corner; where the camera is ironically). Then I knew something was wrong. Im not saying is useless but Im concerned about this heating issue.

As the previous review states, this app provides some wonderful controls to the iPhones camera. ISO control would be a nice addition in a future update. However, there are 2 main concerns: First, the phone does in fact overheat when using the app. Secondly and probably important to most people is the quick battery drain. I wouldnt recommend using the app for too long a period. A very good start to an awesome app! I look forward to future updates addressing those two flaws.

This App has great potential but: 1) As others have mentioned, the camera part of the phone heats up and the battery level drops like RIM stock. I lost 20% of my battery power during the 5 minutes it took me to read the user guide. Another problem is that the battery meter doesnt seem to update itself too often. The meter was showing "full" the whole time I was in the app. 2) All those controls are great but until you memorize what they are you practically need a magnify glass to read them. 3) its missing the one great feature Ive been looking for in a camera app: variable flash. Sometimes that little LED flash is just too overpowering. It would be great to be able to set the flash to a lesser intensity. A flashlight feature would also be nice to help compose your pictures in low-light conditions. This is a great effort and it shows that a lot of work went into it. But the battery drain issue needs to be fixed. I look forward to an update.

A really great app, with a lot of potential, its the first app that allows us that much control over our photos. Yes the iPhone over heat and the app eat up a lot of power, but they gave us such a great app, Ill give them time to correct these issues before complaining. it worth every cents I paid.

** update: Developer added integrated help - in app manual is very nice! Seems to produce a higher quality output file than the standard app. Nice interface and film modes. Ability to change metering from matrix to spot is awesome - would be superb with center weighted. Would be perfect with ability to control aperture/shutter or ISO. Would be better with integrated help Good start though - app shows promise as a serious photography tool Now if the Lightroom app Luminance could read these RAW files :)

The image file that the program outputs is good and I havent noticed the overheating issue myself. I have noticed that the program is quite taxing on the battery however and hopefully there will be a fix for that coming up. I still gave it a good mark because the program does what I wanted it to do which is produce higher quality shots from the stock camera app. There is a learning curve to the app but because everything you need is on the screen instead of menus, it wont take long to familiarize yourself with the functions. Update: change from 4 stars to 5 due to bug fix for battery issues
