Camera Pro app....

Has anyone tried it? Seemed like an AWESOME app....you could zoom the camera, take b/w shots, but for some reason....when I take a picture, they don't save. Wierd. It makes the snapshot noise, looks like it took the picture, but when you check, nothing's saved.

Anyone else try this app?

I tried with the same results. I think they want you to purchase the software first. If that's there strategy then good luck to them. I won't buy anything I can't verify and try out first.

I agree. Out of about 10 pictures I tried to take, 1 of them saved to the camera roll. The others did not. Funny thing is, there are "free features" and "premium features".....what would make them think that anyone would pay for premium features when the free ones don't work?

You have to wait for the loading icon to go off before you take another picture.

I would take the picture, wait for the viewfinder and main menus to re-appear, then I would touch the icon named "pictures"....which would take me to my cameral roll...and nothing new was there. Trust me, it didn't work.

Works for me.
Running 1.1.1 here.
You just have to give it a bit of time, like a few seconds, but for me it saves the images with no problems. (using BW, iPhone camera doesn't look as bad as with color ;P )

I am still using 1.0.2

I've emailed them to find out if this was a known issue. I'll keep you posted. This is an awesome app so I REALLY want it to work!!

It takes somewhere around 5 seconds for the program to put the photo into the camera roll. The developers should probably have the menu reappearance lag until the photo is in place so people don't accidentally lose the picture they just shot.

That also kind of makes it inconvenient if you're looking to take a couple in a row. But then again, if you're not zooming or shooting B/W, I guess you could just use the regular camera or that "burst" mode.

I'll have to reinstall the app and try what you said....

Ditto. I got frustrated and uninstalled it.

it works fine, but there'a a huge thread over @ ModMyiFone.com about it.

The problem is that people really don't want to pay $20 (or $30 once the SDK is released) for an app that, in all liklihood, will be broken once an update happens, and that Apple will, again in all liklihood, release themselves for free.

it's one of my favorite apps. zoom is a must.

Just downloaded the update today...I noticed that every shot now is being saved in landscape mode, even when shot in portrait. Anybody else having the same problem? Worked fine before the update.

Posted by: dubaudi

yeah, if you check the faq's on their site they say that's intentional.

I just installed the app manually. I got the package off a website (which may explain my problem. Clearly something must have been changed.) Everytime I load the app all settings are always set to "On". I have to manually turn them all off everytime I run it. Does anyone know if there's a way to edit something to make them turn off, or at least save my settings on exit? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both manually and through the installer source and nothing changes.

While it seems as though I have a fully functional app(no 5 time trial) I don't use any of the premium options and its a real pain to have to turn them all off everytime. Any help in this would be appreciated.
