Discover the power of photography with Open Camera, a completely free and open-source camera app designed to enhance your mobile photography experience. Whether you're a casual shutterbug or a photography enthusiast, Open Camera offers a plethora of features to help you capture the perfect shot every time.

One of the standout features is the auto-level option, ensuring your photos are always perfectly aligned, no matter the angle. Dive deep into your camera's capabilities with support for scene modes, color effects, white balance, ISO, exposure compensation and lock, as well as a unique "screen flash" for selfies. Capture stunning HD videos and explore more advanced functionalities like HDR with auto-alignment and ghost removal, and exposure bracketing.

Convenience is key with Open Camera, offering handy remote controls such as a timer with an optional voice countdown and an auto-repeat mode with configurable delays. You can even take photos remotely just by making a noise. The app allows for customizable volume keys and a user-friendly interface, making it adaptable to your needs. For those using attachable lenses, there's an upside-down preview option to ensure you get the shot you want.

Enhance your composition with overlay options including grids and crop guides. If you're into geotagging, you can add GPS location to your photos and videos, complete with compass direction for added context. Personalize your images further by adding date and timestamp, location coordinates, and custom text, or store date/time and location as video subtitles in .SRT format.

For those concerned about privacy, there's an option to remove device EXIF metadata from your photos. Open Camera also supports panoramic shots, including with the front camera, and offers advanced features through the Camera2 API such as manual controls with optional focus assist, burst mode, RAW (DNG) file capture, camera vendor extensions, slow motion video, and log profile video.

Further refine your photography with noise reduction, including a low light night mode, and dynamic range optimization modes. On-screen tools like histograms, zebra stripes, and focus peaking help you achieve the perfect exposure and focus. Additionally, the focus bracketing mode allows for detailed control over your focus range.

Best of all, Open Camera is completely free and devoid of third-party ads within the app. It's an open-source project, ensuring transparency and community involvement. Please note that not all features may be available on every device, as they depend on hardware, camera capabilities, and the Android version.
