About this app

■ Overview
This is a manual camera app dedicated to exposure bracketing, allowing detailed configuration of shutter speed (SS) and ISO ranges.
It is perfect for capturing high-dynamic-range (HDR) source materials with severe contrast, product photography, nightscapes, and astrophotography.

[About Unlocked Mode]
This mode allows you to specify settings (SS and ISO) beyond the device\'s officially rated performance. Values outside the hardware limits will be displayed in red. Depending on the device, these settings may not apply correctly, or the operation may become unstable.

■ How to Use
1. Set the focus, SS range, ISO range, and white balance (WB), then press the shutter button.
2. To capture only a single sequence (1 set), set the interval count to "1".
3. Exposure settings are not reflected in the preview screen. Please check and adjust based on the captured images.

■ Main Features
- Self-Timer: 3, 5, 7, or 10 seconds (can be canceled by pressing the shutter button while active).
- Magnified Zoom: Magnifies the preview screen for precise focus confirmation.
- Grid Display: Choose from 22 types of grid lines to display.
- Interval Shooting: If the set interval is shorter than the time required for one sequence, the interval value is displayed in red, and the app shoots at the shortest possible interval.
- Step Adjustment: Set the step increments for SS and ISO in units from 1 EV to 1/3 EV.
- Expansion when Unlocked: Extends the limits up to SS (1/128000s to 128s), ISO (6 to 204800), and step width (1/10 EV).
- Exposure Display Toggle: Select between conventional camera values (e.g., 1/125s) and true power-of-2 values (e.g., 1/128s). *Internal processing and Exif data are always recorded using the precise mathematical calculations (power-of-2).
- Sound Effects: Toggle ON/OFF. *For security and anti-voyeurism reasons, the shutter sound itself cannot be muted.
- Shutter Sound Timing: Toggle between "Start" or "End". If blur occurs during long exposures due to speaker vibrations from the shutter sound, selecting "End" prevents vibration before the exposure begins.
- White Balance Type (Auto / Gain / White Point): If the specified color looks wrong or unnatural, try switching this setting.
- Bracketing Timer (0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10 seconds): Sets the interval time between each shot within a bracketing sequence. This is highly effective during long exposures when you want to wait for the speaker resonance/vibrations from the previous shutter sound to completely subside.

■ Interval Selection Screen
MINTIME: Sets the interval time to the absolute minimum.
1LOOP: Sets the number of interval sequences to 1.
∞LOOP: Sets the number of interval sequences to infinite.
(If the time text is red, it means the interval is shorter than the time required for one bracketing sequence, resulting in the shortest possible shooting interval, identical to MIN.)

■ Focus Screen
BKT: Toggles between range selection mode and single selection mode. Even in range selection mode, tapping the minimum or maximum value will select that single value exclusively.
AF+MF: Switches to manual focus (MF) mode immediately after measuring the distance via autofocus.
MACRO AF+MF: Primarily measures close-up (macro) distances via autofocus before switching to manual focus (MF) mode.
∞: Sets the focus distance to infinity.

■ SS / ISO Screen
BKT: Toggles between range selection mode and single selection mode. Even in range selection mode, tapping the minimum or maximum value will select that single value exclusively.
AE+ME: Measures the brightness automatically (AE), sets the SS and ISO values determined optimal by the app, and then switches to manual exposure mode.
GETSS: Automatically sets the SS to achieve optimal exposure while retaining the current ISO value, then switches to manual mode.
GETISO: Automatically sets the ISO to achieve optimal exposure while retaining the current SS value, then switches to manual mode.
