Open Camera

Open Camera is a fully open-source and completely free Camera app, designed to unlock the full potential of your device's camera with a plethora of advanced features. Whether you're a photography enthusiast or just looking to enhance your mobile photography, Open Camera has something to offer for everyone.

Key features include an auto-level option, ensuring your pictures are perfectly aligned regardless of the angle at which you're shooting. Dive deeper into your camera's capabilities with support for scene modes, color effects, white balance, ISO, exposure compensation and lock, and even a "screen flash" for selfies. Capture stunning HD videos and explore additional functionalities like timer with optional voice countdown and auto-repeat mode with configurable delay.

For those unique shots, you can trigger the camera remotely by making a noise, offering a fun and creative way to capture moments. The app also allows for extensive customization, from configurable volume keys and user interface to an upside-down preview option, perfect for use with attachable lenses. Enhance your composition with overlay grids and crop guides, and add a professional touch with optional GPS location tagging (geotagging) for both photos and videos, including compass direction.

Personalize your photos further by adding date and timestamp, location coordinates, and custom text. You can also store date/time and location as video subtitles in .SRT format. For privacy-conscious users, there's an option to remove device exif metadata from your photos. Explore creative photography with features like panorama, HDR with auto-alignment and ghost removal, and Exposure Bracketing.

Open Camera supports the Camera2 API, offering manual controls with optional focus assist, burst mode, RAW (DNG) file capture, camera vendor extensions, slow motion video, and log profile video. Enhance your images with noise reduction, including a low light night mode, and dynamic range optimization modes. Advanced users will appreciate on-screen tools like histogram, zebra stripes, and focus peaking, as well as focus bracketing mode.

Best of all, Open Camera is completely ad-free within the app, ensuring a seamless user experience. While some features may vary depending on your device's hardware or camera capabilities and the Android version, Open Camera remains a versatile tool for photographers of all levels.
