Android’s latest update brings a new camera API that can take full RAW images. To further make use of this improvement is the new app Manual Camera that basically allows for a full-on manual tweaking right on your smartphone.
Manual Cam has a clean layout with all the necessary settings neatly tucked on the sides giving you a clear view of your image. With these tools you can fiddle with the following settings on full manual:
- Shutter speed
- Focus distance
- ISO
- White balance
- Exposure compensation
The Android app also lets users lock the settings or use the rotating wheel to adjust the parameters. They can set the maximum screen brightness, enable gridlines, mute/unmute tones, set the timer, turn on GPS for geo-tagging, and capture RAW (DNG) format — straight from the interface of the Camera app.
With almost all the standard controls from DSLRs present in the app, it’s worth the Php90 fee over at Play Store.

Nothing new on this. Theres an app that can do this even before xiomi mi3. try DSLR Camera Pro or Camera FV-5 works well even on ICS
Those features are already present in the camera of Xiaomi mi3. Well… It’s running in kitkat
The article failed to mention that Manual Camera is only for Android Lollipop.
Amen brother.. Amen..
“Android’s latest update” somewhat implies that this would only be for Lollipop… But yeah, shame that this isn’t backwards compatible to KK & JB.
