Here is a brief introduction to what XN Pro Manual Camera can do for you.
Photo:
One picture is taken everytime the camera button is pressed. You can choose how to save your picture: a JPEG file, or JPEG + RAW. If you choose the latter, two files with be saved to your camera roll. Please note that RAW photo may not be displayed properly in the iPhone. It is recommended that you export it to a Mac or PC to edit it.
Burst:
Press and hold the camera button, and 10/5/3 (upon your choice) pictures will be taken every second, until you let go of the button. It is recommended, however, that you dont keep bursting photos for more than a few seconds, since processing too many pictures could be a burden for your iPhone.
Video:
Tap the video button to start recording, and tap it again to stop. Choose from 4 video qualities: High, Medium ,Low and 4K. For recent iPhones, High means 1080P. Medium and Low are resolutions suitable for viewing over WiFi/Cellular.
While you are recording, you can still take pictures.
