With SEABOB Cam you can easily preview, download or delete your captured movies from your SEABOB cam system. Sort your recordings by date, length or cam mode. View your recordings in the preview mode and decide to download the movie while watching it. The downloaded movie will be automatically saved to your gallery. After downloading you can delete the movie from your SEABOB to safe storage space for new recordings. The deleted movie will still be in your gallery. The new SEABOB with integrated camera technology turns every SEABOB into the fastest underwater camera, and also enables unique video recordings. The SEABOB-Camsystem has two full-HD cameras: One in the bug of the water vehicle that films and saves everything discovered in the fascinating underwater world at the push of a button. A further full-HD camera is located in the information display. This is an Action-Selfie-Cam that records the pilot’s unique experiences when moving above and underwater, and is activated by pressing the sensor. When the recording equipment is activated, the information display assumes the monitor function. All camera functions can be controlled professionally.

Most modern smartphone cameras automatically process every picture you take. They apply aggressive smoothing, artificial HDR, and automatic sharpening. Sometimes, you just want the actual, unedited digital negative so you can develop it yourself. Truly Simple RAW Camera bypasses automatic processing to give you the exact, unedited light that hit your iPhone’s physical sensor. NOTE: This app only works on devices with hardware capable of capturing Bayer RAW images, which means most iPhones and iPad Pros but not other sorts of iPad, sorry! It does not work with front-facing cameras, either, for the same reason (they lack that capability). Features: • Pure RAW capture: Saves uncompressed 14-bit Bayer .DNG files directly to your camera roll with zero AI processing. • Tap to focus: Tap anywhere on the viewfinder to physically adjust the lens focal plane and lock in your exposure, just like a real DSLR. • Hardware controls: Switch between the physical back-facing lenses and toggle the hardware flash. No digital zoom allowed. • Tactile feedback: An optional haptic shutter toggle lets you physically feel exactly when a photo is captured. • Visual basics: Toggle a rule-of-thirds grid to frame your shot, and switch between light and dark color themes for comfort. • Quick review: Tap the recent photo thumbnail to instantly jump to your native iOS Photos gallery. • Free: Enjoy a completely free app with no recurring fees, intrusive advertisements, or paywalls.
