Create the most amazing and unique photos with HDR Photo Camera.


** Exposure Fusion HDR **

The application works by capturing three successive frames at different exposure levels (bracketing). Then it uses the exposure fusion technique to select relevant elements and combines these frames into a new high dynamic range image.

The best results are obtained when the scene includes both dark and bright areas, such as taking pictures of a tall building against a blue sky, of the sunset into the sea or of some beautiful cloud formations.

Our multilevel HDR engine preserves details and textures, generating realistic and professional quality images.


** Tone Mapping HDR **

The tone mapping algorithm can be used on a single image and is suitable for moving objects or scenes that are not possible to be captured in three independently exposed frames.


Since version 2.2:
* tone mapping 
* workflow for fusing already captured set of frames
* 12 filters (including 4 HDR filters)
* configurable aspect ratio

New in version 3.0
* anisotropic alignment algorithm for hand-held HDR shooting (blurring caused by hand shaking is removed)
* self timer
* virtual horizon
* composition grid
* share button 

Note: the text "captured by HDR Photo Camera" displayed in Camera Roll below some of the images is not advertising. Instead it is the standard text displayed by WP8 for all rich media applications.

    Every now and then it crashes my HTC 8x. I end up having to reboot. Otherwise it's great.

    This is my fav app on my phone, and I end up using this more than my actual camera. I love the app, and it takes amazing photos on my 8x. However, about half the time, it crashes out and disables my camera until I reboot. That bug costs this a couple of stars. Fix that, and its a 5.

    Can it be updated to be a lens

    Why is there an option to save the source images if they can't be accessed? This app is pointless now. The tone mapping engine sucks so I figured I would save the source images and process them on my PC with PhotoMatix. And I can't find any way to contact the developer. What a waste of money.

    Love the app filters...when the app does not crash on my HTC 8x (often), its really magical! Should be a 5 star but gets only 3 stars because of the issue...

    Fantastic. It is a proper HDR process. Taking three exposures and combining them. Was a skimpy at first but now the app is nicely,fleshed out.

    This is my favorite lens app. The results are stunning if you know how to use it.
