Camera M 4.3 Quick Change Menu Update

This update introduces an important addition to the user interface — Quick Change Menus.

By design, Camera M gives the user a fully dedicated interface for each aspect of iPhone manual camera controls: focus, exposure, and white balance. However, there are instances where you want to just have quick access to controls without opening a whole new interface. In these moments, Camera M's Quick Change Menus give you the option to use Haptic Touch to instantly change basic aspects of focus, exposure, or white balance.

Let us look at an example

Imagine you are at a beautiful landscape setting trying to capture a beautiful sunset. Your main concentration here is to get the exposure just right, using Camera M's custom exposure controls. However, you notice the focus mode is in autofocus, but the focus needs to be locked at the furthest distance. At this moment, you do not want to leave the current presentation of controls. Now you can tap and hold on Focus button to invoke Haptic Touch to bring up Quick Change Menu for focus and quickly set the focus preset to Scene and keep concentrating on the exposure.



These menus are also presented intelligently. For example, if the exposure mode is currently in auto, the menu only gives the option to lock it, or the option to resetting exposure bias is only shown if exposure bias has been altered at all.
