The original Pro Camera app was widely regarded as one of the best alternatives to Apple’s native camera app, even reaching the #1 rated camera app spot for several years. But it had begun to show its age with slower startup times and occasional crashes. Pro Camera II aims to fix that with a faster, more stable foundation and an overhauled user experience.

Rebuilt for Performance and Creative Control

Pro Camera II introduces a streamlined, configurable interface and expands access to manual photography tools. Users can shoot in Shutter Priority, ISO Priority, Manual, or Auto exposure modes, including the ability to define a custom Auto ISO range for more consistent exposures.

White balance controls have also been upgraded. Photographers can adjust temperature and tint, choose presets, or calibrate using a gray card. The app even allows fine-tuning of image processing and HDR intensity for more precise results.

Professional Video Tools on the iPhone

Moment has packed the new version with a robust set of video features normally found in dedicated cinema apps. Pro Camera II supports Apple Log, Open Gate, ProRes, and 10-bit recording. Users can configure resolution, frame rate, codec, color space, bitrate, and chroma subsampling.

Video monitoring tools include Waveform, RGB Histogram, and audio metering—important additions for shooters who need accurate exposure and color control.

LUT support is also built in. LUTs can be imported, applied to photo and video, and toggled between preview mode or baked-in output with adjustable intensity.

Customizable Interface and Workflow

Pro Camera II’s interface can be tailored to the user’s shooting style. A left-hand layout option and customizable quick-access tools make it easier to reach frequently used settings such as flash, stabilization, zebras, grids, and focus peaking. Zen Mode simplifies the interface for distraction-free shooting, removing everything except essential tools.

The updated app integrates seamlessly with Moment’s iPhone lens and case ecosystem. Moment says future updates will add slow shutter and timelapse modes, advanced profile sharing, and expanded support for third-party hardware.

Pricing and Availability

Moment’s Pro Camera II app is available now on the Apple App Store for $9.99.

If you want to use your iPhone for capturing high-quality images with Moment’s lens accessories for the iPhone, you’ve had to choose between using the lenses or using a battery case to extend your iPhone’s life. You don’t have to sacrifice one or the other anymore as Moment has introduced a new battery case, which serves as a high-capacity battery case while continuing to accept Moment’s lens attachments.

The Moment Battery Photo Case can more than double your iPhone 7’s battery life. The iPhone 7 version of the Photo Case has 2,500mAh capacity and the iPhone 7 Plus version of the case has a 3,500mAh battery. You choose when to use the case to recharge your phone via the Moment application rather than a physical switch on the case itself.

For iPhone 7 Plus users, the Moment Battery Photo Case is the first Moment case designed to work with the dual cameras on Apple’s latest large smartphone. You can’t simultaneously use the cameras, however, but rather you can mount Moment lenses to either of the phone’s lenses.

In addition to the Battery Photo Case, Moment has also announced a new Photo Case for iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus and an all-new wide lens. The new products are on Kickstarter, including the Battery Photo Case which can be backed for as little as $79.

Some of the best sports photographs happen before and after the game-and during timeouts. Keep your eyes open for those personal moments that say something about the way your favorite athletes feel about competing, winning, and, sadly, losing.

It’s almost impossible to appreciate how difficult sports action photography is without trying your hand at it on the sidelines of a large team sport.

I’ve actually become aggravated with famous quarterbacks, for example, for daring to throw a great pass while standing in front of a lousy background

Athletes are, well, so preoccupied. Can’t they appreciate what I’m trying to do over here?

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t want to discourage you from photographing the athlete in your life; I just want you to get pictures you love AND I want you to do that with realistic expectations. If you put all of your eggs in one basket waiting for a diving catch to happen in front of you, you may be waiting for a while. And if it actually does, the odds are still pretty slim that you’re actually going to get an in-focus perfect peak moment picture of it.

All that determination to get that one great one may result in what I call Real Moment Blindness. There are other wonderful moments happening at every sporting event, but you need to keep your eyes open.

Anytime a team gets together in one of their pre-game team spirit huddles there’s a photograph waiting to be taken. When the defense is standing on the sidelines cheering for the offense there’s a picture. When they all raise their hands and cheer and yell there’s a photograph. When they’re sitting in the dugout looking all tense and anxious there’s a picture. When a coach puts his arm around a player for a one on one that’s a photo moment. It goes on and on.

These are not game action moments. These are the moments that happen when people compete for fun. It’s all part of the sports world. Sports are a lot more than throwing and catching and running and jumping. It’s about the emotions that people feel when they do it well or do it badly. It’s about winning and losing and the lessons we learn from both.
