Contact Photoshop Camera Portrait Lens Support

Edit: After I posted this review the app removed all my photos I hadn’t downloaded yet, including some vacation photos that I was in the process of getting downloaded. So after this huge set back I’m changing my review to one star.

I like this camera app better than the native app on my iPho... Show more ne 12 Pro, but I tend to take a lot of photos at a time, and I can’t find any option anywhere to save multiple photos to my phone at once. It’s super annoying to have to go through them all one at a time, take off the filter it automatically applies every time (can’t find an option to make it not do that automatically, have to manual take it off every time) then safe it. Wish they would fix this, other than that I like it.

I was really looking forward to the release of this app. Alas, like every other camera app I’ve tried, I find that nothing beats the image quality of the native camera app.

This app will remain in my toolbox for editing pictures quickly with some of its filters. The Studio Light portrait is... Show more my favorite as it also adds lens correction. Great app for quickly auto-processing corrections taken with the native app (of course, light room already does this, as does Ps Express with the added benefit of perspective correction)

I like that photos only save to the camera roll when you are ready to export them.

Good lenses, although a lot are silly and not all can be removed through Manage Lenses. Most over-process. Ps Express has better filters that can be dialed down to create subtle processing.

Here’s what I find lacking:

Auto-processing tends to over-edit, particularly in low-light. When I compare pictures taken with the native app and edited with a push of the auto button in Photos app, they are richer and not over-exposed as I’ve found Ps Camera photos to be. Either way they still need more work in a dedicated app.

App starts in selfie mode. No setting to change this.

No video.

Portrait filters have no way to adjust the depth, so the background has one standard blur.

I’m a SLR type guy and if you are looking for SLR type creative controls this app is NOT for you (it has no SLR type controls). If you are looking for quick ways to add some of what I am assuming are the currently popular filter effects to your snapshots, then I guess this is an OK app. I say ‘I gu... Show more ess’ because this is not my idea of creative photography so I have no real references to determine what makes a good or bad app for doing that.
It does have some basic editing adjustments - Contrast, Highlights, Clarity etc and easy cropping presets - but those are readily available in most editing apps. The lack of any kind of exposure adjustments before you take a photo is a real problem in my book.
