Slow Shutter Cam puts an end to mere snapshots and gives you some of the most powerful features of a DSLR camera. All this, in a package that fits in your pocket. Slow Shutter Cam offers three capture modes to capture unique images: MOTION BLUR: Equivalent to the shutter priority mode on a DSLR, the Motion Blur mode is perfect for creating ghost images, waterfall effects or suggesting movement in your photographs by adding a blur. LIGHT TRAIL: The Light Trail mode allows you to 'paint' with light, show car light trails and fireworks or capture any other moving light in a unique way. Unlike shooting with a DSLR and being tied to specific rigid settings to obtain good results, the Light Trail mode takes care of the essentials, letting your creativity soar! LOW LIGHT: In low light conditions, this capture mode allows the camera to accumulate every photon of light hitting the sensor. The longer the shutter speed, the more light it will accumulate. You can even fine-tune the result using the exposure compensation slider to achieve the exact effect you want! Highlights: • Unlimited Shutter Speed and manual ISO • Option to resume capture and create multiple exposure photos • Real time live preview - See the result in real time • Innovative 'Freeze' and ‘Blur Strength’ controls • Tap to adjust focus/exposure • Time-lapse Intervalometer • Apple Watch support and handy Self-Timer • Full resolution support on every devices • Camera Control support (iPhone 16) With Slow Shutter Cam on your iPhone you get the features of a DSLR camera with the convenience of a device that you can drop in your pocket and take with you wherever you go.

Underwater Camera App designed for the ProShot Dive Case, ProShot Touch 2.0 Case, and all other ProShotCase waterproof iPhone housings. The ProShotCase app changes your iPhone’s volume buttons into camera controls, providing you with full camera functionality while filming underwater using a ProShotCase. The volume (-) button cycles between all camera modes (photo, video, slomo, timelapse, timer, selfie cam, sleep), and the volume (+) button becomes the action button (takes a photo, starts/stops video, etc.). You can zoom in (to 5.0x) and out (to ultra wide angle camera) by long-pressing your volume buttons. You have the option to record video in 60 FPS, and in 4K, which when enacted records video in Dolby Vision HDR for true-to-life color and contrast. All footage taken in the ProShotCase app is also saved directly into your iPhone's native Photos app for easy editing and sharing. The ProShot Dive Case is a hardshell underwater housing, rated to 130ft/40m, and the ProShot Touch 2.0 Case is a touchscreen-compatible underwater housing, rated to 50ft/15m. Both cases have easy-to-press volume buttons used to control the app. When using this app with a ProShot Touch case, you can interact with it through traditional touchscreen UI when above the water.
