Tacticam vs Ultra Camera

Tacticam is a professional camera and story maker — built by creators, for creators, to unlock the full potential of the camera you already carry. It works like the camera you already know: one big button, tap for a photo, hold for video. Everything professional waits quietly one tap away.

Ultra Camera does what the built-in Camera app won't. It's built and tested on iPhone 18 Pro Max, and it stays simple: point and shoot, and every manual control is one tap away when you want it. REAL ISO CONTROL iPhone 18 Pro Max lets you set shutter speed and aperture in the Camera app, but not ISO. Ultra Camera gives you all three. Fix the ISO yourself, or use RANGE: the camera still decides, but only inside limits you set. Keep ISO between 50 and 800 for clean night shots, or keep the shutter at 1/1000 or faster so action stays sharp. 1/70,000 TO 8 SECONDS The built-in Camera stops at 1/16,000 of a second and 1 second long exposures. Ultra Camera goes from 1/70,000 to 8 seconds. Freeze water drops, wings and spinning wheels in mid air, or leave the shutter open for silky waterfalls, light trails and night skies. DUAL CAPTURE PHOTOS Take photos with the front and back cameras at the same time, not just videos. Shoot the back camera on ultra wide at 0.5x and fit the whole scene in, with your reaction in the corner. Tap the inset to swap which camera is the big picture, expand the front camera for a larger picture-in-picture, and pick the aspect ratio you want. DUAL CAPTURE VIDEO Record front and back together in 4K. Move the inset to any corner, even while you're recording. OPEN GATE VIDEO Record with the whole sensor in a tall 4:3 frame, the way big-screen filmmakers shoot, then crop to any shape later without losing the shot. Pick Steady for stabilised 1440p, or Full Res for every pixel the sensor has. MORE THAN THE BUILT-IN CAMERA Photos at 12, 24, 36 or 48 MP. RAW in 16:9 and 1:1 as well as 4:3. A live histogram before you shoot. Set your own white balance from a sheet of paper or a grey card. Save whole setups as presets and switch in one tap. YOUR LAYOUT Touch and hold any control along the top to move it, add it or remove it. The grid button beside the shutter opens every control at once. QUICK TO SHOOT Take photos with the volume buttons or Camera Control. Tap the thumbnail to see your shots, check their details and share them. UNDERWATER TRUE COLOUR (OPTIONAL) Shooting in a waterproof housing? Turn on Underwater True Colour in Settings to bring back the reds that water takes out. With it off, none of it appears. Always use a housing rated for your depth. Ultra Camera works on other recent iPhones too. Some features depend on your iPhone's cameras.
