The best photo apps for Nokia Lumia
Nokia Lumia with Windows Phone 8 have a very interesting application ecosystem, especially those designed for the camera The platform itself counts with a complete offer, but also Nokia offers its own services to enhance the photographic experience of its devices, and best of all, they are free.
The camera is a very important point in a smartphone and it is used very often, but we can also get more out of it through effects, montages and functions specials gains even more value.Below we see some of the most interesting applications to take photos on a Nokia Lumia with Windows Phone 8.
Nokia exclusive photo applications
We mentioned that Nokia offers a very complete package of applications to its customers, but it is also very convenient because these tools are integrated into the same camera application, making its handling more comfortable as everything is integrated. One of the most popular applications is Nokia Smart Cam, compatible with all models since the update to Lumia Amber. This tool allows you to create different effects such as action photos, change faces in a portrait or remove objects among other things.
The Finnish company also offers a solution for the most creative users with Nokia Creative Studio, a platform to edit images by changing the parameters basics (saturation, exposure, contrast...), add filters, highlight a color, create a collage, correct errors or change the focus. Nokia Refocus also allows us to edit the focus once the image is taken, so that we can focus on another area manually without having to take two photos.
On the other hand there is also Nokia Glam Me, a tool that is used to improve portraits with effects such as softening the skin, enlarging the eyes or accentuate the smile. But it also offers a series of predefined filters that give a more personalized touch to the result. Nokia Cinemagraph aims to create animated images in GIF and gives very funny results if we know how to take advantage of it.Of course, we couldn't miss Nokia Panorama which, as its name indicates, is used to take panoramic photos, and also Nokia Camera , compatible with the most advanced models (PureView) and with professional shooting options.
Windows Phone Photo Apps
In addition to apps exclusive to Nokia, Windows Phone It also has other very interesting titles to which it has just been added Instagram The popular social network of square photos reaches the Microsoft platform and the Nokia Lumia with a very polished appearance, in the style of the Metro interface, and the same functions that we already knew from its versions for iOS and Android, although it is currently in beta phase.
In a very similar vein we find Lomogram, a tool based on Lomo analog cameras, which has an approach similar to Instagram . However, in this case there are more editing options such as the possibility of choosing more formats in addition to square and being able to add film effects (partial blurring, chromatic aberrations, etc).
If fun effects are your thing, PhotoFunia offers an endless selection, which is also grouped by categories such as Christmas, Movies , magazines and much more. We can pretend that we are starring in our favorite movie, appear with Santa Claus or integrate our photo in a multitude of situations.
Another option for lovers of panoramic photography is PhotoSynth, a tool that creates interactive panoramas and allows you to share them with the rest of the world . With this utility you can create immersive panoramas through which you can move by sliding your finger.
Lastly we highlight Phototastic Free, a tool that is used to create collages with several photos, but allows you to edit many parameters such as the background, opacity, layout and also allows you to insert stickers with text or drawings on top.
