Is this the Best iPhone camera app 2022? Reeflex Pro Camera app

[@spicematthews8034]

Hey Shayne, I had to update my 6 year old android as it wasn't able to get the latest updates and everything was slowing down. I saw one of your vids and long story short and (expensive). I'm now the owner of my first iPhone, a 13 pro max loaded with Reeflex, Even Longer, Adobe Lightroom and Snapseed. The only thing I didn't have to buy was a tripod as I have an old Manfrotto 055c that i used to use with my TLR. I live on a farm on the West Coast of NZ miles from anywhere. So no light pollution and great scenery...can't wait to start shooting!

[@NeverTooOld22]

G’day! As a pomme I have to admit I love your channel mate. Learned a load of stuff I didn’t know. Because of your reviews I bought a Ulanzi tripod holder and I bought this Reeflex app before I’d even finished the video! £2.50!!! Brilliant stuff. Keep up the good work mate. Love from the UK.

[@ShayneMostyn]

you BLOODY LEGEND! thanks mate

is there a macro mode option?

@@ShayneMostyn Does it support raw on the iPhone 14 base model?

[@ramsfan709]

Hello from Canada, just wanted to start off by saying your work is just amazing. I look at beautiful photos and videos and I get envious of the great pictures. I am turning 56 next month and I have always wanted to get into photography for myself not to make money and I will be honest I find it complicated with all the settings etc. Thought about doing some classes but then Covid hit so I didn’t bother but would love to try it. When I see or read about all these settings, lighting cameras etc it’s a lot and just throws the enjoyment out the window for me. I myself have a 1 terabyte iPhone 13 pro max so I know I have lots of room for pictures and videos. If I could somehow start with the phone and it got less complicated then I would move on to a camera. Anyways enjoyed the video 🙂

[@ShayneMostyn]

Thanks mate, I appreciate it. You may find you stay with the phone, we are producing some amazing images these days just from phones.

[@patriciarivas2638]

The bloody legend will steer you in the right direction.

[@netmaster78]

Good evening from Germany, thanks for broadcasting this amazing app. Do you by any chance know if it can also do focus stacking? Similar to what Olympus can do in their MFT cameras.

[@samuelnick9190]

any app for pixel?

[@ShayneMostyn]

Intervalometer and star trail app mate.

[@TheSpade357]

I wish there is a trial version of this app so i can compare it to the other apps like Halide Mk2.

[@terrydavis1488]

Hi Shayne, I am an 83 year old UK resident viewing this video. I have just purchased the App, but I have an issue as follows. I take a shot, view the shot in my camera roll, then decide to delete it. I then get the next pic in my camera roll, and have to click back twice to get access to the camera screen. Am I doing something wrong, and can you advise please? Other Apps I have allow access to the camera on most screens, and having to click back twice, means I may miss a valuable shot. Many thanks. Terry Davis

[@fullspeeddesign]

Your awesome nightshots and long exposures made me buy the app, I already love it ! I tried night city landscapes but get dashed light streaks, do you know how to get continuous streaks ? Congrats for your channel

[@ShayneMostyn]

Awesome mate. Yes, you can get around that. Thats why I like the full manual controls on this app. Set the SS to 1/1 and it will be heaps better. You may need to lower the ISO to do so.

[@brenopeck]

I’m pretty sure for 2.99 USD it’s a deal. The price of a cup of coffee. However, for us in Brazil, it’s 27.9 BRL, the price of a full meal. If it only did ProRAW in long exposure/light trails mode.

[@katebarker2107]

Great video shayne, i will be getting that app for sure, question the lightning photo was that taken on the motion setting for five minutes, we are having cracking storms up here might be worth a play

just bought the app , it's bloody easy to use .

[@ShayneMostyn]

I certainly think so mate

[@JoHo66]

First off all I love to watch your videos! It’s Johan here from Amsterdam Holland living in Canada. I did made a variety of long exposure photos with a Canon 700D and now I like to experimenting it with my iPhone 12pro. I still have to play around with this Reeflex app, I only wonder with the high IOS setting, doesn’t your photo looks too grainy? Then I am also curious about the Even Longer app, isn’t that a better app than this Reeflex app also because you can shoot in RAW?

[@ShayneMostyn]

No the noise it handled quite well. Both apps are good mate. At the moment Even Longer shoots RAW. Reeflex will soon. There are things I like about one app over the other and vice versa.

[@astrod0866]

Is this app good for milky way photos It has RAW mode so I thought it would be good And theres manual mode Is this the best for astrophotography?

With the reeflex lenses do they only attach to the main camera lens or also to the telephoto so you can essentially stack the zoom?

That is a good question. I have only used them so far on the main camera. Stay tuned.

[@rayleenslegers9142]

I’m curious what tripod you’re using Shane?

[@ShayneMostyn]

I use a few mate. Either the manfrotto one I have been using for about 10 years, or the K&F Concepts one. I have done a video all about tripods that i use mate. You will certainly find what you're looking for there.

[@samael2607]

I’ve been trying Reeflex as an alternative to slow shutter, based on this video. One thing I can’t get it to do is save a long exposure photo as anything but a jpeg. And it won’t save the metadata to the photo. Any suggestions on settings I might have missed. It seems more involved and less point and click than slow shutter

[@ShayneMostyn]

you're not missing anything mate, its JPEG files for long exposure at the moment. RAW is coming in the future. I have asked the developers about the metadata. I generally dont look at it, so I wasnt sure. I dont think this is comparable to slow shutter. This is much more customisable.

[@samael2607]

@@ShayneMostyn thanks for the reply. I’ll keep on tweaking the settings to try to improve my shots. The meta data is useful for bulb mode, as it tell me the exposure time, which is needed for calculating sidereal time. Luckily there are lots of time settings to choose from. I just need to remember which one I used.

[@Rudel23]

Great video, can you advice me whether is better ProCamera or Reexpose for long shutter pics? Seems (but I could be wrong) that with Reexpose you can only shoot in RAW while on ProCamera you can choose between jpg or raw, is that right? Can you clarify this to me? Great video anyway!

[@ShayneMostyn]

Thats correct. Reexpose is the better app. But, as you say, its only RAW. Have you looked at Even Longer?

[@Rudel23]

Thank you. I have even longer (basic), I'm in doubt whether buying the subscription (actually cheap enough) to enable RAW on Eveln Longer...having already bought Reexpose...maybe I keep Reexpose for RAW and Even Longer for JPG...just an idea.

[@Rudel23]

@@ShayneMostyn I need your advice: if I take a long exposure pic with, let's say, even longer, at night but WITHOUT light trails, let's say a monument (illuminated), should I use motion blur (which is recommended for daylight use I think) or use Light trail mode? I mean motion blur (in even longer has another name) works also at night? Thanks in advance if you can advice me.

[@schretter1]

It sure looks like a great app. It will be better when (and if) they add the Raw long exposure. The Even Longer app does the RAW quite well. The developers indicated that are adding a bluetooth control capability and hopefully a burst mode capability.That would make it a great overall camera app.

[@ShayneMostyn]

For sure mate. Its something they are working on now. Its a toss up between EL and Reeflex. They RAW is great with EL, the lack of manual control isnt. EL has just added somethign that Reeflex is doing with the preview, I will be testing it out shortly.

[@Horsepowerimages]

So I downloaded & purchased the pro but still can’t get longer shutter speed that 1sec, anybody else having this issue? I’m in the UK if that makes any difference.

[@ShayneMostyn]

You need to hit the long exposure button to give you the longer duration mate. Check my video again around the long exposure bit.

Ive never tried things like star trails with Camera +2. I think a comparison video may be on the cards.

[@Arda.D]

@@ShayneMostyn looking forward for it! I also checked ProCam 8, it also has light trails and bulb mode for slow shutter

[@ronduvall9795]

Am curious whether this app dethrones the Even Longer app or whether both have their place.

[@ShayneMostyn]

I think they are different enough to have both. I love the full manual controls on this, but the lack of RAW (atm) is a reason to keep EL on my phone.

[@letsbefrank3]

Bought this due to your recommendation. Such a shame though that the company isn't really sticking to the 'spirit' and rather than adding the feature to the app, has instead brought out a different app for long RAW exposure which you have to buy all over again.

It doesn't beat or stand upto Halide.

[@Hektormydog]

Having not used either, but thinking of both, the one advantage to the Reeflex app is the one time purchase price that is far cheaper than subscription or less than ½ the onetime purchase price Halide. Halide may be better (?) but the Reeflex app seems to be in the same ballpark for use and functions.
