Take a photo as if you were shooting a video. That’s exactly Interval Shooting. Archixcam allows you to take photos using Interval Shooting. Surely you will be surprised, love it, and never let it go! Just as I did that. Absolutely unique camera app like never before. Archixcam is a camera app developed mainly for shooting the architecture. It will help you to take stunning and perfect photos of the architecture. When you find an impressive building, you can start shooting right away. In addition, it is easy to shoot with just one hand and is simply intuitive. Shoot whenever and wherever you want. Because we always carry a smartphone, we need to be able to shoot whenever and wherever we want. For this purpose, the app has been simplified by carefully selecting the necessary features. Treasure every encounter, for it will never recur. You can’t shoot again at that moment. Keep the photos you have taken for the time being so that you don’t regret it. You might encounter a photo that you never thought of. Focus on shooting. Imagine taking 10 photos while adjusting composition, framing, etc. Usually you need to tap the shutter button 10 times. Interval Shooting is a way to do this with just one tap. Since it automatically shoots at regular intervals, you can continue to shoot with a focus on tilt and alignment. Repeat to get a better one. Beautiful and accurate composition such as horizontal, vertical, diagonal, and symmetry is not easy to shoot with a single shot. Rather than aiming to shoot only one best shot, repeat shooting until you are satisfied and find your favorite one. And even more features. • Large shutter button — When shooting, you should keep looking at the subject, not the shutter button. For this reason, the shutter button has been enlarged to reduce erroneous operations. • Grids — There are several types of grids that can be combined freely. It is a necessity for accurate composition. • Frames — Although the captured image is full resolution, you can shoot while checking the target frame when shooting. • Level — Want to know device tilt? Level will help you. • Luminance — Remove the color from the camera preview to check the brightness balance. Of course, the picture taken is full color. • HEIF — As the number of shots increases, you may be concerned about the available storage space on your device. Save in HEIF format and use storage efficiently. (Supported devices only) This app does not support iPad and iPod touch.
