I was really excited about this photography app. I test its functionalities and was both happy and disappointed.
For all tis functionalities, I tested it against the default camera app.
* Happy about the high resolution option. You do get a higher resolution picture.
* Zoom is clearer with Hydra than zooming with the default camera app
Disappointed:
* low-light. I tried with different lighting between almost dark and somewhat light. I could’t tell the difference between Hydra and Camera app (I turned off the flash for the camera app for this test)
Not sure
* HDR. Maybe the way I was using it was not a good. Maybe certain conditions must be respected to give nice results. But I did not keep one single pictures that came from HDR. It was as if the contours where highly saturated and almost comic book look.
I use Hisy as a remote control and it works perfectly with this app.
Think I will have to give it a try in a lot more conditions and situations to learn its best use. Unfortunately it does not become my go to app for taking pictures as the default one does a pretty decent job in most situations.
Note: I have an iPhone 5s
