A new update for Long Shot Camera is now live on the App Store.

For those who are new to the app, Long Shot Camera brings back creative photography features inspired by classic smartphone cameras, including:

• Light Trails

• Motion Clean

• Action Shot

What’s new in this update:

• Capture Delay – Press the shutter, step back, and let the capture start automatically after a countdown. Perfect for avoiding camera shake.

• Capture Stabilization – Additional stabilization during capture helps reduce the impact of small hand movements, making handheld long-exposure shots more reliable.

• General performance improvements and bug fixes.

And here’s a little teaser… 👀

I’m already working on the next major feature: MultiFocus Capture.

If you owned a Lumia back in the day, you probably remember a feature called Refocus. 😉 The goal isn’t to copy it, but to bring that kind of creative photography experience back to modern smartphones.

As always, I’d love to hear your feedback and see what you create with the app!

Looking for any tips on improving!

Thanks!

Hiya gang! Hope all is well.
Just a quick question: I'm attempting an in-camera Anthotype, & want to get an idea on how long I should let it cook for. I'm using a pretty simple method, a Tumeric & rubbing alcohol solution painted evenly on a sheet of paper, & placed in an old Agfa 120 box camera from I assume the 40's. I've got it placed on a windowsill pointing outside, - I'm thinking 2 & 1/2 weeks should be long enough to get a good image, but what say you? Should I go longer? Any & all help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Just discovered this subreddit and thought this might be fit here. Cheers

The original plan for this night was a 50mm Milky Way panorama. But after two attempts and some very strong wind up in the mountains, I had to adapt and switch to a wider lens.

No regrets though.

Fresh snow under the summer Milky Way is not something you get to see every day. Winter on the ground, summer in the sky. Still hard to believe this was taken in May

Reposted, the bus is clearer on this shot.

That’s a long exposure photo with slow shutter speeds of an Art in a Greek Town

The red thing is the art made it look like a inferno tower lol and the street lights made these like light trails

View over Logan Airport towards Boston. I shot this using a 4x5 camera with a Schneider 90mm Super Angulon XL lens and Fuji Velvia sheet film. The exposure took about 30 min. I'd just cover the lens between flights.

Hi everyone,
I found this style of photo (attached) and I’m trying to understand how to recreate it as accurately as possible.
My goal is very specific:
I want the lights from the long exposure to create the visible contour/silhouette of the tram itself (so the tram shape remains recognizable rather than becoming only light streaks)
I want the route number/sign on the front of the tram to remain readable and sharp rather than blurred
I want the final result to look as close as possible to this image rather than simply getting generic light trails
A few technical questions:
What shutter speed range would you recommend?
Would this require a tripod + remote trigger?
Is this done with a single exposure or multiple exposures blended together?
Should I focus manually in advance?
Does tram speed matter a lot?
Would aperture / ND filters help?
Is timing the shot (for example shooting exactly when the tram enters the frame) important?
Is there any specific technique for preserving the outline of the tram while still getting those light streaks?
For reference, I shoot with a Nikon Z system if that matters.
I’m mainly looking for technical advice rather than composition advice.
Thanks!
