Annoying albums
Why oh why does this app need to create a new album every time I take a photo.
I don’t want a “Firstlight” album.
I never asked for a “Firstlight” album.
Just wanted a simple camera app. Not yet another app to crowd up my albums to the point of uselessness.
Otherwise great in capture function. Just stop ruining the Albums function please. Make it optional.

So much potential!!
Great app with a ton more potential!
I have used a lot of photo apps Halide, Camerapro, etc.. and find that I am most attracted to Firstlight however I want more control and options in an elegant multi-sensory interface. I have read reviews and it seems like you are open and wanting positive suggestions. So here are a few.
Have the swipe and text follow the perspective, make a picture horizontal, your swipe actions are the same as you use vertical.
Make swipe options haptic. actually make ae, ISO, and Shutter actions Haptic.
Add real time perspective correction.
Add a Fibonacci spiral, golden spiral, grid please.
Add A dial with haptic feedback to digitally zoom. This would leave the swipe motions alone. Perhaps located where the album is located currently beside the shutter button?
A way to adjust white balance would be useful.
Ability to add and remove film overlays post picture taking.
Ability to choose save location, partner with Adobe lightroom?
Use the full 14-bit RAW data in real time when calculating exposure etc….
I hope you take these suggestions in the light they are given as helpful and not critical. If you need other real life Beta testers I would love to be on that list.

No Zoom?
The developers seemed to have missed adding zoom to the interface. Not a bad app but there are better photography apps available.
Not like Filmic Pro
I read that the Filmic Pro team made a camera app, and I bought it. I should have read more. This app gives you no shutter speed/aperture/ISO control. It doesn’t give you much more than the ios camera app does. Save your money for a real app. I wish I had. Filmic Pro is so great - what happened to this one?!?

App constantly freezes
In iOS 16 with iPhone 14 the app is constantly freezing and makes it basically unusable. There hasn’t been an update for 7 months. Is this app dead?
Good Controls, Doesn’t All Work
I definitely like the manual controls in this app and keep discovering new things each day (I’ve been using it for about two weeks now). However, I want just the raw .dng files and selecting PROraw only files gives me .HEIC files that my phone says are JPG+raw. I hope this gets fixed.
First light.
Great app but it needs zoom function!!!
Mostly good
The manual focus on objects out of range of automatic focusing is excellent. I can’t say it’s dramatically better than the standard camera app, but more control. However if listening to music and using the volume button to snap it changes the volume. Very tiresome and I’ve never encountered this before.

Almost perfect
Could we get the option to save only ProRaw? Not ProRaw+HEIC?
There also seems to be a bug where the regular raw format is saved blurry/pixelated, as if the automatic post processing doesn’t execute or something.

Almost Perfect
I appreciate the additional control this tool gives over the built in iPhone camera app and its simplicity. However, there are a few important features I feel are missing for which the implementation of would earn my final star:
- The lack of a digital zoom. I’m aware pinch can be difficult as per the implementation of the exposure/focus, but even a rotary style dial would be appreciated.
- The inability to set the shutter speed longer than 1 second. Even the built in camera app can go for longer with night mode.
- No horizontal shooting. It’s annoying that I have to go into my default gallery app to rotate any photos I wished to take horizontally.
