Cool It is now part of my arsenal .....thank'

Cool! You are quite welcome.

I'm sure you'll find your own way of working with it, but in case you are interested, I tend to leave mine permanently set to:

a) I don't muck around with their different in-camera crop settings. This doesn't buy you anything except saving a tiny bit of storage. I just use the crop setting ( 6x7+ (?)) that maximizes the area of the sensor that it uses. If I want a different crop, for safety, I do that afterwards, on my computer;

b) B&W - Their color settings are OK, but I don't think they are as spectacularly good as their "F4" fine grain, medium contrast B&W setting. It's nice to be able to pull out what amounts to a dedicated B&W camera that's ready to go. If I want color, I usually just switch to Apple's built-in camera app (set to HDR mode), unless there is some taxing exposure situation that needs a semi-manual override that "645Pro" provides;

c) Displaying a histogram.

d) Saving both the "semi-RAW" data and the processed shot to my camera roll, both with maximum resolution, minimum compression.

In contrast, I use their AF, AE and AWB lock buttons on virtually every exposure. I'll also play around with their built in pre-conversion color filters if I'm in the mood for "classical efx". What I really wish is that they provided a simple exposure compensation adjustment like on "real" cameras. That would simplify a lot.

If I think of anything else that might be useful, I'll let you know.

Have fun and post some pix!

First problem, images not saving saying I denied access to my media which, I did. Now I want to enable but there is no option to change it. I even tried reinstall or loading app..... So much for thinking its going to a breeze:banghead:

 

[Tom Mann]

Hum ... Sorry to hear you're having problems. I know this won't make you feel any better, but, as I recall, it installed seamlessly on my iPhone and has continued to work just fine.

Unfortunately, I have no in depth knowledge of iPhones -- I'm essentially just a user, so I can't really offer any advice. The only similar thing I've run into was when I downloaded another phone app, "Chameleon", and it wouldn't save to my media. It turned out that it didn't support the iPhone 4s (my model). Maybe it's something like that? Email the developer?

Good luck.

Wow, Mike. I'm impressed at the size, and I'm even more impressed by you taking it apart and getting it back together again. Good for you!

The size of the camera is impressive. The disassembly / reassembly took less time and effort to repair than the tungsten cord in the CanonAE1, which was a common repair in the day . I was impressed that the chassis is both serviceable and rugged...Well Done Apple!


(I fixed still cameras and lenses for 25 years)
