This is what you get when you purchase Apple products. Nothing new here, I had to deal with this back in the G3/G4 days when the laptops were so stupidly-locked you couldn't even apply security updates.
I've done software dev and manufacturing and engineering- QA is ESSENTIAL EVERYWHERE - ALWAYS.
I would ask anyone that thinks QA is unnecessary to spend a few days on an actual aerospace production line. Software and hardware get EXCESSIVE QA. For good reason.
Making up details of the incident doesn't help either. They didn't eat anything, a cop just did a double-take at the lemon pound cake, and Afroman wrote a song about how they wanted to eat it.
Uhhh, as someone who is very much under the thumb of ITAR and EAR as an aerospace employee, this is absolutely asking for prison time, and a LOT of it.
It's usable but that's all I can say for it. Changing settings for simply adjusting ISO makes the processing of images take forever. I tried to use it so I could capture poorly-illuminating LEDs in a strip at work and ended up just using a DSLR in manual mode, it was much faster.
Well of course a DSLR will be better than a phone camera for most things, since you can control more features. That's also the point of OpenCamera; get as much controls as you can back, compared to the stock app that might be lacking. It wont do miracles if your phone camera is not good to begin with.
I've found OpenCam to be useful because of the various optional features ( onionskin, levelmeter, locking settings ). You can also set the bitrate/size/duration of videos, etc. Lots of useful stuff.
Yes, I tried every improvement and API switch suggested for almost a month with no change in performance unless I went back to default everything, which then brought processing performance in-line with the regular native phone app.
And the Long Exposure was the primary thing I wanted it to work for.
Yeah, I agree. I've used it until 3 days ago, then after ~1y I got tired of taking the occasional pictures with HDR on and waiting 3-5 minutes for them to be processed and saved, while producing 3 other copies in the gallery.
Quality looked amazing, but the pre-installed phone camera gets close enough and it's instant.
"I never developed with Flash but my understanding is that "modern web" can do everything Flash was used for."
True, it can, BUT what's lacking in the total arena is actual authoring and development toolchains, which is what Flash packaged all in one single bundle.
I'm not trying to install 4 or 5 different things, along with all of their dependencies, just to make some 200MB thing that could have been done in 20MB and one program with Flash.
Overpriced COTS garbage.
