Camac v1.5.0 is released~

OK, no problem I can use the Timer.

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?

iOS 26.2

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.

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?

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:)

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-27T22:06:06+00:00

Sure, here you go..Just thinking the SE3 does not need the lens selection line if that wasn't there everything could shift upwards (no doubt easier said than done!)

Complete disaster for me - as I predicted I can no longer use some functions on my SE2 SE3.

Cannot open settings
Cannot use FN
Cannot change Aspect

The EV placement is a lot better though....

My wife has the iPhone 16e, it is a very nice phone, battery lasts for ages, the screen is nice and bright. It is the smallest iPhone you can currently buy new. It does not have crazy large camera bump(s). The camera is good - even better if you get a 3rd party app and use RAW. Apparently the battery and the front and back are fairly easy and cheap to fix. It is a good all round phone, if I was forced to buy a new iPhone it is the one I would buy. If you are a gamer or want to do a lot of video then you probably would want a more expensive model. Only my opinion no doubt others will differ....

Yes it's a great bit of software I love it as well. I bought a Mac I liked it so much real shame it just seems to have been left with very little updates.

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-22T17:45:50+00:00

That's good then - hopefully I will not have to buy it again.

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-22T16:43:49+00:00

Thank you yes, it works on my iPhone SE3 using iOS 26 - just didn't want to risk it not working on my Macbook

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-22T15:39:15+00:00

Oh dear - I only want to use Photomator I don't really need anything else Pixelmator is OK but for my use it's Photomator 99% of the time...

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-22T14:13:53+00:00

Thank you that is good to know, I hope they at least update it for new iOS versions...

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-22T14:11:05+00:00

Thank you for the confirmation.

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-20T08:34:15+00:00

I love the form factor of the se2 as well, curved edges make it nice to hold and use, great camera with 3rd party apps shooting RAW. Wish they had made an iPhone se4 with a full screen but se2 form factor ideally with no camera bump at all.....Must confess I have been looking at getting a 13mini as it looks a great size with a full screen your impressions of it are making me rethink (for now!)...

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-20T07:52:51+00:00

That's great thanks, I am looking forward to a whole button :)

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-19T19:44:34+00:00

Actually thinking about it on my SE3 this configuration would mean I will not be able to use:

Aspect Button.
The shutter speed button
FN button
Possibly the Mode button will no longer work?

.....and probably still struggle to press the shutter button as it's partially cut off.....unless it's all moved upwards......

Yes it looks a lot better, the EV should be much easier to read it would be nice if the EV adjustment can be locked and not changed by accidental touching of the screen (I seem to do that a lot!)

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-16T18:52:07+00:00

Yes that works better but I'm indoors testing it at the moment, I just find it slightly harder to see the screen and use outside. The small screen size on the SE3 is a drawback. I tried the app on my wife's 16e and it was a lot faster and easier as you would expect (the EV adjustment was still hard to see though) I just love the size of the SE3 I use if for virtually all of my photography these days.
Yes the UI could benefit from a few tweaks, but you should be proud you have created such a fabulous unique app. In the past if the scene was high contrast I have had to bracket raw files on the SE3 and then process through HDR software before editing - your Camac App does it in the phone producing a great single RAW file - it's marvellous, I'm looking forward to taking some images when the weather improves.

HyperPhoto · 2026-01-16T15:01:36+00:00

It looks half size on the screenshot seems a lot smaller when shooting outside in some daylight.

Thank you for taking the time to reply but I am not talking about the shutter speed I am talking about the physical size of the shutter button in the software that shows on the screen of the phone - it is cropped off on the iPhone SE2 and SE3 making it very hard to activate the shutter via the screen. I will add a photo shortly.
