Burst Mode - High Speed Camera - App Review

First, there was the standard iOS camera App, to which was subsequently added panorama. Since then, quite a few camera Apps have sprung up, each with their little speciality.

Burst Mode - High Speed Camera is no exception. When you don't really want a stills camera, nor do you want a video camera, this App comes into its own; it allows you to take bursts of action.

Now for the ACIDS test:

Aesthetics
The interface is uncluttered, having only 5 buttons, and they are all do just what you would expect:

Flash
Turn the flash on your iOS device on or off for greater lighting. The App detects whether or not your type of iOS device has this function and only displays the icon if it is usable; nice touch.

Camera
Choose whether you are using the forward or rear facing camera.

File Access
Access recorded bursts. You then have a frame by frame sequence where you can save or delete individual images.

Settings
Here you can set a self-timer
Select the resolution (4 settings from 640x480 to 3264x2448)
Set the number of pictures in a burst (5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, or 1,000)
Define a delay between frames (various from none to 5 minutes)
Auto-Lock AF/AE, or leave it unlocked
Choose whether or not to display a grid
Pick whether or not to have s shutter sound

Shoot
This is the business end of the App. Simply press the 'Camera' icon to start shooting, and press again to stop.

Cost
The App costs $2.

Indispensability
If you're looking for that great still of a fast moving object, this is for you.

Dependability
The App works beautifully, although you are obviously limited to the quality of the iOS camera.

Security
There are no issues with this App.
