Owl's Eye app for iPhone and iPad

Shoot perfect noise reduced photos in low light conditions!

Get the best possible image quality out of your phones camera.

- shoots a series of long-exposure images and takes the best out of the available light by averaging images

- take great photos rivaling DSLR quality in low light

- you can define a "black level" image before shooting to remove the disturbing noise patterns that would normally be visible in these images, as the random noise will completely disappear if you take a long image series.


Usage:

- put the phone on a table like you normally would (back facing camera down)

- define the black level (press the "Define black" button, press start, wait for a minute, press stop). You only have to do this once in a while...

- choose the subject, aim the camera at it by putting it on a table, in a glass, fix it on a tripod... whatever is necessary to keep it from moving or shaking while capturing. The subject should also stand still for a long time… but even the stars move, so… ;-)

The Owls Eye is slow, but accurate!


- press "Start" very carefully so the phone will not be shaked too much (half a second after the initial "shake" will not be captured)

- wait for a second to some hours, depending on how much image quality and how little noise youd like to achieve ;-)

- press "Stop" very carefully so the phone will not be shaked too much (the last image after pressing "stop" will not be captured, so its not too bad if you shake the phone a bit)

Of course it takes some time to take perfect photos in low light or even darkness... so your phone should stand still while taking the image series (its easy to leave your phone standing still on a side as these phones are perfectly balanced)

For artistic reasons you can of course break this rule ("painting with light", shoot a person in the first shot and the person runs out of frame, shoot a second one to create a "ghost" photo...)
