ProCamera 1.032 APK
ProCamera gives you a fully functional stills camera application optimized for Samsung devices. Created with picture quality and minimal processing in mind.
→ For phones with Android 6+ Marshmallow, please see note below
Most phones do not yet support Google's Camera2 API, and thus can only save compressed JPEG files. In addition, most devices use artificial edge-sharpening and noise reduction algorithms which further reduce the quality the resulting pictures by adding halos around hig
h-contrast areas and an oil painting appearance to highly detailed areas.
h-contrast areas and an oil painting appearance to highly detailed areas.
This app disabled all those enhancements. JPEG quality is set to 100, artificial sharpening/edge enhancements are disabled, picture resolution is set to maximum and noise reduction is also disabled (but can be enabled in the app) thus retaining more natural film grain.
• Selectable Histogram modes: Luma, RGB or both.
• Selectable ISO modes.
• Adjustable Exposure (not supported in all ISO modes, device dependant).
• Defeatable built-in sensor noise-reduction.
• Selectable Focus modes: Continuous AutoFocus or Touch to Focus.

The app has been tested successfully on Samsung devices running ICS 4.0.2 and up. It may also work on a wider range of devices using CyanogenMod 9 and up.
* Pictures taken without noise reduction enabled may require retouching using an external app, especially with higher ISO settings. Processing on a PC can achieve far better results than the limited processing used in smartphones and tablets.
* Note: For devices using Marshmallow, a new permissions scheme has been added which this application does not yet fully support. As such, it will crash on launch.
You must go into Settings -> Applications -> ProCamera -> Permissions and manually enable the permissions the app requires.
Soon to be fixed.
Screenshots:
Note: A problem still exists with some devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S6 where the app crashes on load. This is being investigated and most likely due to another Marshmallow permission issue.
