Re: Best camera app for Galaxy S7?

If I am intending to take photographs I will take a 'proper' camera but I always have my phone. To get the best value from a shot I reckon it's worthwhile to use RAW which in my case is via the FV-5 app.

The image here is a screenshot of a100% crop comparison of a RAW processed via LR--> DXO vs. the JPG SOOC from the same exposure. The difference is obvious.

Oh I agree raw is far better. But as rurikw pointed out above, the default camera app has raw capability--I had been ignorant of that fact. You just have to manually enter 'pro' mode every time you launch the camera app.

Now just the other day the camera updated to new system software, and I have to figure out, again, how to enter pro mode. Grrr.
