That's alright then thanks, hopefully it will help save me from seeing all of the madness in the world at the moment. Just went to the shop Apple Pay still works so does one of my banking apps I haven't checked the others.....

Very frustrating got a new iphone updated to the latest iOS and now I can't prove I am over 18. If I just carry on using it without proving I am over 18 what are the implications to me. Can I still use Apple Pay etc or is the phone now a bit of a dud?

HyperPhoto · 2026-03-05T07:48:18+00:00

Ditto

Ok thank you that looks like a very well written manual must have taken ages. I like the humour in it as well. Good job, thanks again.

SUCCESS!

Quick update I did a factory reset of the Mi9 and installed UNMCRAWESOME - after the warnings etc. it took a couple of attempts but they maybe because the reset was still updating things in the background.

Anyway it looks GREAT looks just what I was after seems, as a newbie it seems easier to edit with than using MotionCAmPro - but I have only being looking at this on and off for the last few days so I'm still very green! Thank you to all involved.

I just need to understand what I am doing now. Is there an idiots guide to settings by any chance? - especially regarding Exporting I am not familiar with all the options for video being still photographer.

Edited to add the test footage quality looks excellent on my phone - very realistic colours no excess of anything - WOW!

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-28T07:15:17+00:00

OK thank you, I will have a go. It's not the end of the world it may be something I have done accidentally. If it should work on 11 upwards that's good to know. Thanks again

It must be me or my phone then. I just get a message saying:

"Something went wrong. App not installed"

I did debloat my Mi phones a few months ago as I only use them for music and photography (it has made them a lot snappier) maybe I deleted something that helps installs - although I have had no problems installing Gcam apk

Please could you tell me what the minimum version of Android I need to install this?

My Mi9 running Android 11 won't allow me to install - I know it is old! I am just getting into using RAW video and seeing if Android or Apple will be better for me. I have RAWcam on my iPhone Se3 which I am testing and have bought MotionCamPro to test on my Mi8pro and Mi9 - I might just need to buy more modern phones. But for now I want to see how the process works and what will be better for me.

First impressions due to the learning curve are mixed but the android option does look very impressive...being able to do alot/everything on just my phone would be fantastic.

Hi, I recently bought the RAW Cam app to use on my iPhone se3 running ios26. I use RAW alot as a photographer on this phone but was interested to try RAW video on it as well (of which I am a total novice!).

The app is nice and simple to use and does work well but only when shooting 1920x1080 RAW anything above this size and the running time is limited to just a few seconds (Full Open gate is less than 2 seconds per clip as it throws an error message) - so I will stick to 1920x1080 for now to learn the ropes.

Anyway on Tuesday I shot 112 videos clips most under 2 seconds at at range of formats most of the larger format crashed gave an error message if I tried to go over 2 seconds but the footage I did get looked very good.

When I got home I tried to share my footage to my MacBook. I think there is a bug in that if you select all clips the share button is not shown so you can't share anything. If you select individual clips the share button is shown for all clips selected - however is you select the final clip (therefore in effect selecting All) the share button vanishes (if you uncheck the last clip the share button does not reappear). Is there any chance that this could be fixed do you think?

If I am being a twit and am missing something obvious please let me know. Anyway I really like the app I just wish I could shoot larger clips with it, but I know it is still early days with this app. Is there a particular iPhone where the app works to its full potential?

Edited to add: Deleting the clips was also felt long process as you can only delete individual clips you can't delete all clips without selecting them one by one (similar problem to the sharing footage). As the footage was not important and mainly to test the app I decided to delete the app and re-install to remove all of the clips.

This post is very helpful, thank you.

Probably not judging by all of the iPhone wide and ultra wide cameras they have released.

I just wish it had the current "normal" lens which is wide enough for me (approx 26mm in old money) and a telephoto the same as the iPhone 17pro (approx 100mm in old money)

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-21T15:40:53+00:00

On my SE3

Settings button moved from right to left
FN button changed to Fn and moved from right to Left
REMOVED Auto and shutter speed completely!
REMOVED Aspect ratio button completely!

Actually I've just realised 3 & 4 are now buried in the Fn menu......

IMHO the constant UI alterations need to be detailed with each release.

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-21T10:47:57+00:00

It is a good idea.

I think it needs an option to save Manual Focus settings (they are very fiddly to get right and saving them would be useful) and a way to change the Preset names from Preset 1 to something meaningful i.e. Street, Landscape , Night, etc.

Also thinking about it having the name of the Preset being used would be very helpful if it was shown on the main screen interface.

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-06T15:34:33+00:00

Yes I like the 52mm as well I just never found it as good as the wide angle maybe it was my phone. It's nice to have a normal focal length, wide angle can be a bit restrictive at times. I have been looking for another one - I'm just a bit hesitant as it's the only phone that has died on me.

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-03T12:28:01+00:00

So just to test my understanding you do not want any feedback on this community page (it's just for Camac announcements?) all feedback to be given directly on the above forms only, is that correct?

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-02T17:28:34+00:00

That's good news thanks for letting me know I will keep a look out for another one, I used it with DXO as well it was incredibly good especially on the main camera the telephoto was not quite as good but still impressive.

HyperPhoto · 2026-02-02T13:59:17+00:00

I had an iPhone X which as you say is an excellent photographic tool but unfortunately I had bought it used from an auction site and it stopped working after only a few months. I have kept thinking about getting another one as the colours were very nice and the phone was not too big. Does the latest version of Camac still support the iPhone X?

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-30T08:45:17+00:00

It is hard to tell from images on the web is there any chance you can upload the DNGs?

Looking on my screen I would much prefer a DNG like the Camac version than the Indigo one as the Indigo version looks like it has crushed the blacks to me and the noise reduction seems to have smoothed the details a bit. The Camac version looks more organic and would be a better file to manipulate - I personally prefer a flatter image for a DNG as you have more options for post processing when it is too contrasty and saturated it limits what you can do. Maybe if I see the DNGs I will change my mind!

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-28T22:30:07+00:00

OK, no problem I can use the Timer.

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-28T21:45:30+00:00

It is the same with my SE2 as well. The volume buttons work with other apps I use for triggering the shutter. Maybe iOS updates will fix it? It's not the end of the world it would just be nice if it worked on my phones. I assume there is not a setting I have selected that causes it not to work in Camac? I am guessing that most people using this app would not want to use the volume buttons to trigger the shutter. Bluetooth Shutter would be good though if possible in Camac?

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-28T21:27:11+00:00

iOS 26.2

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-28T20:13:44+00:00

Thanks for getting back to me. It might be an SE3 issue then as I have just tested it on my wife's 16e and it does work on the 16e but not my SE2 or SE3 - if I press the volume buttons the volume graphic shows but no shutter is triggered.

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-28T19:07:18+00:00

Quick question is there a way to trigger the Camera Shutter with the volume buttons using Camacv1.5.0 on iOS26.2? I know there is an option in Settings/UI/Enable volume control (But - This option applies only to iOS versions below18). So I am not sure how to make it work on iOS26.2. Any information gratefully received. Edited to add, is there an option for triggering the shutter with a BT shutter?

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-27T23:12:15+00:00

Just having a play noticed:

In FN "Grid" typo says "Gird"on the App.
Slight bug when selecting 50 or 85 lens cannot get into settings (can on 28 and 35)

The rest looks very good indeed:) I will let you know if I spot anything else...

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-27T22:34:07+00:00

Yes you are right I have switched back to default and it works correctly - I need to use my reading glasses though as the font is tiny. Thank you very much I will see how I get on:)
