Hi Everyone,
I'd like to share with you my photo fx app: Mini Image Studio. This app is sort of like Instagram or Photo FX Plus, however my aim is to focus on different photo fx, like RGB color modification and HSV effects (tonemapping, HDR etc) rather than making this a social networking app (though sharing with Facebook etc is possible thanks to very flexible android structure).
There are only a couple of effects present now, but I'll add more with the upcoming updates.
Current FX are:
[RGB]Grayscale
[RGB]Blur(*)
[RGB]Flatliner™
[RGB+HSV]Old Photo
[RGB+HSV]Retro Glow™
[RGB]Xpro™
[RGB]Spray™
[HSV]Litmus™
[HSV]Paster™
[HSV]Instant™
[MLIP]Tilt Shift™
[MLIP]Selective Coloring™
The ones with ™ are near 100% my code, while I've used several web sources for Sepia etc.
Mini Image Studio can also rotate and crop pictures.
Output of the processed images is limited at 1024*768 while there are no limitations on input size.
Your feedback/comment are quite welcome..
Here is the Play Store link
Here is the QR Code

}
UI:
Showing Tilt-Shift
Showing Selective Coloring
(*) Blur effect uses code portions from Stack Blur Algorithm by Mario Klingemann.
(**)
[RGB] means effect is based on red-green-blue pixel components, which is in general simpler and faster compared to HSV fx. However the things that you can do with RGB are limited, on the other hand, [HSV] (hue-saturation-value) is more complex, closer to human eye in terms of image presentation and you can do cooler stuff such as HDR and tonemapping. MLIP means multilayered image processing, stands for indicating that image has more than one layers with different fx.
Also I would definitely appreciate your suggestions to speed up fx implementation, such as Native code..
Here is the changelog:
v1.2.0
Massive update, introducing Tilt Shift and Selective Coloring engines to allow touch based processing over the photos.
Added ability to rotate images with touch.
Disabled Crop support due to problem reports, will enable it after further testing.
Improved Paster FX performance.
Many bug fixes
v1.1.2
Bug fix release for UI error
v1.1.1
Revised UI with new background skin and frame - much nicer looking now
Added Paster™ effect - another HSV based filter
Fixed bug in Old Photo algorithm.
Increased stability
v1.1.0
Added Tilt Shift effect - uses some sort of Miniature faking technique
Changed Sepia effect to Old Photo using image texturizing
Bug fixes for stability.
v1.0.6
Many bug fixes and reliability improvements.
Added options dialog for setting output resolution.
v1.0.5
Improved image load engine (better inSampleSize implementation)
Added Instant effect - it post processes image, changes luminosity and puts it inside a frame like old Polaroid photos.
v1.0.3
Added Litmus effect - first HSV effect, makes image more vivid (increasing saturation) and slightly decreasing luminosity in too bright areas.
v1.0.2
Added Spray effect - simple Spray effect
Fixed Undo bug - finally squashed undo bug, which was actually coming from my inexpertise in Java
v1.0.1

You can get Lapse it - Time Lapse Pro from here or you can try the free version out here.
What is a time-lapse?
Taken from Wikipedia as it will explain it far better than what I can :
Time-lapse photography is a technique whereby the frequency at which film frames are captured (the frame rate) is much lower than that used to view the sequence. When played at normal speed, time appears to be moving faster and thus lapsing. For example, an image of a scene may be captured once every second, then played back at 30 frames per second. The result is an apparent 30-times speed increase. Time-lapse photography can be considered the opposite of high speed photography or slow motion.
Processes that would normally appear subtle to the human eye, e.g. the motion of the sun and stars in the sky, become very pronounced. Time-lapse is the extreme version of the cinematography technique of undercranking, and can be confused with stop motion animation.

Firstly, lets take a look at the UI of the app:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On the far left you have the main start screen where you can access the "capture time lapse" camera screen, which is the two screens on the left and the second screenshot is the settings sub-menu, where you can change the capture settings i.e. you can choose what res. to record at; 240P, 360P, 480P, 720P, 1080P and full sensor ("specially for those who want to capture in their devices but render in their computers, you can still render it using lapse it, but it will be scaled to 720P"). We also have the render settings, which consist of what type of encoder to use, either; MP4, MOV, FLV. The quality of the render and the FPS (Frames Per Second), the higher this is, the shorter the video is. When you click "more" whilst in the "capture time lapse" view, you get a sub-menu introducing more options as shown in the above screenshot on the far right.
In the "gallery" sub section, this is where you can view your own time lapse videos as well as viewing other lapse it - time lapse projects using the app (should check some of them out, they are superb!):
Finally lets take a look at the editing UI area:
Here you can preview your video as you edit it, as you can see, we are able to trim the video (remove frames at the start and end), add effects (Black & White, Vivid colours, Invert colours, vintage and an old film effect), add a music track and lastly the important bit, render settings (these are also available in the settings sub menu as shown above).
I have done a fair amount of videos lately, but they haven't come out the best due to shakiness/jerkiness, you need to have some form of a tripod/desk holder or something to hold the phone steady, otherwise the video will be nowhere as good in the end i.e. my first video:
Now for the steady videos Although the sunset was nowhere as good as the above
This is a quick one taken on my one S at 720P (can do 1080P as well but with 45 minutes of footage it would consume a **** load of space! ), 12 frame interval and encoded at 35FPS/MP4/very high quality:
As I pointed out above, you can apply effects, such as black and white, sepia etc. here is one using the "vivid" option:
My videos aren't the best or the longest to show this sort of app of, they are there to just give you an idea of what to expect.
Youtube can stabilize the above video so it looks less shaky/more smooth, but I just wanted to show you the untouched version. Once again, I am sure that you could edit the video on the PC using some software so that it would look even better!
PS. the reason the video quality in terms of "clearness" isn't the best is due to the window being dirty
To sum up, the outcome isn't anywhere near the quality of time lapses done with proper camera equipment and manually edited on the computer using some software, but for a smart phone and a £1.24 app, which does everything for you, it does a damn good job of creating a time lapse video. The app is easy to use, quick and not bloated with settings, features, which make it complicated for the average users. There is also a short video on the play store web page explaining the app and giving a quick walk through the app UI/settings and what to do.

Almalence, Inc., the maker of a number of camera apps for Android, including HDR Camera+, has just released Open Camera, an open source camera app with an extendable commercial version (A Better Camera).
Our intention is to make A Better Camera a top-ranked app and allow third-party developers add their plugins (free or paid), getting instant exposure to millions of users.
We welcome all of you to test that fresh application, provide your comments and, of course, join the project as developers!
Availability:
Open Camera is available at Github: Get from GitHub
Available on Google Play: A Better Camera, the version with Almalence’s proprietary plugins (free with some features in trial mode): Get from Play
The idea:
Provide as much shooting modes, features and options as possible, potentially replacing all other camera apps
Plug-in system, allowing developers to easily implement new modes without having to develop the whole camera functionality from scratch
Make it possible to use the code in commercial applications and in conjunction with code and libraries under different licenses (Open Camera is under MPL 1.1)
Allow third party developers to add their paid plugins to the commercial version distributed by Almalence
The Synergy:
Almalence works on making A Better Camera the top app on Google Play
The developers can add their plugins to A Better Camera, getting instant exposure to millions of the users of ABC, instead of publishing a new app which goes to the bottom of apps list.
Features available at the moment in A Better Camera:
HDR (functionality is the same as in HDR Camera+ app)
Panorama
Unwanted objects removal: remove objects from the photo with a tap
Night mode: capture sharp and noise-free photos in any illumination
Group portrait: make everyone smile, fuse faces from series of photos into one
Video recording
Pre-shot: capture what happened before you tap the button
Sequence shot: capture the evolution of the dynamic scene
Burst shooting and exposure bracketing
Self-timer
+ full access to all Camera controls, settings and functions
The processing libraries used for HDR, Panorama, Night mode, Group portrait stitching, objects removal and sequence shot are available under developer license (can be used for development, but not for distribution)
All interested developers and users are welcome to discussion!
Great camera! Thanks for sharing it. I've made this the default camera app on my S4. I've compared the basic camera control features to many others including stock AOSP, FV-5, Lenovo Super Camera (ignoring gimmicky features such fancy effects, filters, stickers, i heart u from apps like Camera Zoom FX, Cymera, etc). This camera app comes out on top.
Wishes:
- Faster load. It's good now, but can be better.
- Manual ISO settings (on Galaxy S4, it doesn't show though other camera apps can show it)
- Live/actual shutter speed and aperture (I know aperture is fixed, but for the thinking photographer, it helps to see the numbers)
- Exposure Bracketing setting: +-1, +- 0.5, etc
- Timer setting: 1 sec (for movement reduction after tapping the screen), 3 sec, 10 sec, etc
- Timer setting: disable/enable flash warning
- Flash compensation (useful for fill-in, not that the onboard flash can do much)
- Swipe to gallery (a bonus, not a must)
- Faster load. Did I say faster load?
(I think all those wishes are still sticking to basic features)
But even without the wish list, this camera app rocks. Hopefully it would make the XDA front page one of these days (already tipped them).
yes a great camera APP! Now one of my camera app on HTC ONE.
I use Camera360, Lenovo Super Camera, Focal, Camera FV-5, HDR+ ....
my Wish:
please make a widget, so that you can start the camera applikation with settings !!!
-> example: on click on HDR Widget or one click on Normal Widget ...
i dont know why i need always to go in the camera app, make my settings and then i can make my photo.
it would be nice to save the settings to a widget
Thank you for the feedback

tasker support
wishlist:
when you done it a solution with settings - you have new possibilities:
I use utter - a personal voice assistent ( a very good one) this software has support for tasker ( automatic solution) :
so it would be a nice solution to have tasker support
i say: "make a normal photo" -> the phone make a normal photo
i say: "make hdr photo" -> it makes a hdr photo ...
i say: "make video" -> it makes a video
it was the first solution like this

This app has an awful lot of promise. Nicely done! One problem I am having is after selecting video mode, it doesn't want to let me return back to single shot mode.
Of lesser importance, I also wish there were a way to switch to video faster and think the main app icon could be improved. Look forward to future development. Thanks!

I did yesterday. Thank you for the sale.
Could you add an option to edit a series of photos after they are taken to apply hdr,object removal or sequence shot manually (rather than apply those live). That would mean that I could take a burst shot of 10 photos and then decide later on if I want to create a sequence shot or apply object removal.
I hope that makes sense.

Looks very nice so far, everything seems to be working fine, will be be the ability to change which folder it stores the images/videos to or to choose from Internal or SD Card (External) in the future?
Thanks. :fingers-crossed:

okay, fine~ we will consider your suggestion, dear.
We will update more functions in the second stage.
Welcome to give us feedback any time
Only getting 2.1mp images from my Nexus 5 running 5.1 and there's no option to change it to 8mp
Also the video is 720p only and video quality is very bad.
Ui is perfect, bet the viewfinder is rather slow, and focus as well.
Add some more options to the gallery, like showing all picture folders.
Improve these things and i have a new daily driver!
I love the design however it looks too identical to the one on iOS, try making the design your own? Something unique but good looking.
You should add exposure functions and other camera functions. If that happens I will definitely ditch Google Camera for this.
Looks good so far. Is there an option for HDR?
Need a panorama mode and a settings section otherwise great app
Getting "Fail to connect the camera. Please turn off the flash or reboot your phone and try again." Tried rebooting and it stay this way. Google camera works fine. I'm using Samsung Captivate i897 running OMNIrom 5.0.2 Lollipop
i tried it on my nexus 5 , the video quality is very low and there is no option for change it !!
thank you for this application
OK, I tried this out a bit earlier and I'm digging the filters.. My only question is whether or not a soft back button can be implemented? It would make switching from the camera to another app a lot easier, instead of having to click on the gallery/last picture I snapped to get that functionality..
Only black in preview screen.. but capture is ok..

Implement Camera2 into this and it will be fantastic.
powerful?
Picture size is 1280x720 normal
switched to square and it's 2322x2322
switched back to normal and it's 4128x2322
Video is 1280x720
The only available setting is Flash. And it doesn't work.
Is that really worth mentioning at http://www.xda-developers.com/new-app-spotlight-geak-camera/ ?

this is great, i would like to see an ability of saving the image in the sd card instead of internal memory. Please add the features from AOSP camera. like manual exposure and changing the image size and others. thanks and keep the good work up
just add small setting menu
and hdr
and i will move to these app
oh, and i like your compass and calculator apps
Hey everyone!
I'd like to introduce you to my new app called Expose. It was released on 24th of December (on Christmas Eve, also, on my birthday)
So here's the compressed story of this app:

For about 4 years we have been developing VIMAGE with the goal to create the most realistic photo animation app.
Hello GPU
This summer I started playing around with other techniques, forgetting a bit about our "most realistic" mission, and moving towards artistry, colors, lights, glitch, and other things I found interesting. From a technical point of view I transitioned from the CPU based Canvas (VIMAGE rendering is 99% CPU and Canvas based) world, to the GPU based OpenGL + fragment shader world.
I found it quite fascinating what amazing effects you can achieve in fragment shaders. I browsed a lot through Shadertoy and learned from the cool shaders created by this amazing community.
Move the glitch!
As I looked around I saw glitch effects are quite popular, on photos and in videos as well. The apps out there for photo produce static glitch photo output, video glitch editors, of course, produce video, but I didn't see apps producing glitch videos from photos. There are some, but they don't focus on moving filters. Photoshop Camera for example, they have some presets that move, but only a handful. So I wanted an app the focuses on moving glitch filters.
The app
Only glitch though? As I researched a bit more I found other interesting effects that could fit in the app: dual lightning, split color, color switch, drip art. These are all effects that you can find (more or less) in other apps like PicsArt, but they are all static. So I put them also in the app, as moving filters.
The other twist in the app, besides that filters are live, is that filters can affect only the background, only the foreground, or the whole photo, automatically, by a technique called Saliency Object Detection, achieved using a neural network. So when I code a preset, I can specify what effect I want on each layer.
An important aspect of the app is that it is preset based. The reason of this is that as VIMAGE grew big and quite advanced from the initial "pick an effect and generate" workflow, I wanted to go back to simplicity. Just select a preset, and everything is set for you. But as Albert Einstein said "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler", I also provided some seekbars so that the user can tweak the parameters of the presets. One missing piece for not breaking this "no simpler" rule is manual masking. If AI foreground selection fails, filters can look bad, so manual masking is needed in this case.
So summarized, the app is a preset-based photo editing app, that focuses on moving, looping (glitch) filters, and can automatically apply filters on background and foreground.
The release
After some internal testing, and a short pre-registration period, we went live on 24th of December. It's very early to draw any conclusions, as numbers are pretty small yet, but as I see the analytics a large percentage of users save and share their work, so it seems they like what they're creating. As what's next: I'm fixing crashes, and analyzing the data, to see with which preset categories the users engage the most, and then I will focus more on those categories.
This release was very exciting for me, as the whole tech stack of the app is completely different from VIMAGE: It is written in Kotlin, using Android Architecture Components, and the rendering is OpenGL based.

Future plans
At the initial idea stage I knew I wanted this app to be a platform where others can create presets and share them. The reason is that now I'm the one who codes the presets, but I'm sure there are a lot of more creative editors/creators out there who can build a lot more amazing effects than me, so why not let them do so? It's like when you build a game engine, you won't necessarily build the best games. Or if you know how to make a guitar, will you be the best guitar player? The other reason is that I think an in-app community, a platform can drive user engagement and retention.
So, that's all folks! I hope you will like the app, and any feedback, suggestion is greatly appreciated!
