What's New in LMC 8.4 R18
The developer explains that R18 does not change image quality. All changes make the app easier to use. These are the main additions:
- Full-height exposure slider: the exposure slider now sits on the left edge of the screen and uses the full height, so you can adjust brightness with your thumb.
- Mode and option buttons with pop-up lists: long lists of buttons now open in a small pop-up menu (an idea taken from ZGCam and reworked for LMC).
- Vibration feedback: buttons give a short vibration when pressed.
- Noise and AWB model loading: you can load custom noise models and auto white balance models. After choosing a custom model, restart the app so it appears.
- Viewfinder frame rate option: choose the preview frame rate your sensor supports for a smoother viewfinder.
- Better default auxiliary lenses: default lens IDs were fixed for many phones, so most users no longer need to change lens ID settings by hand.
- Black theme and UI fixes: a true black theme, a fixed top bar and better slider sizes.
