The innovative feature is part of our ProCamera Up subscription, go to Settings &gt; Shop inside the app, to learn more. Martin went on a new photo tour through Berlin,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>taking inspiration from the clean lines of the city\u2019s more modern side. We caught up with him after the shoot to get his feedback on the feature, which he used for the very first time.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56172&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<b>1. How did you like shooting with ProCamera again, but this time with APC? Was it<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><b>easy to use?<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]I feel ProCamera is both powerful and easy to use. APC was no different. Perspective\u00a0adjustment is normally a complex task, but ProCamera produced very good results\u00a0without any user intervention \u2013 it does not get easier than that. That\u00a0was very impressive.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56138&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<b>2. Do you often manually correct perspective distortion in your photos?<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Yes, very often. I usually try to adjust it by positioning myself and my camera accordingly. But sometimes it is simply not possible. Perspective adjustment is usually the first step in my post-processing workflow.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56157&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<b>3. How much time would you say APC saves you per picture since it\u2019s automatic?<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]It really depends. Manual perspective adjustment can be particularly tricky on a mobile phone, so I can easily spend 30 seconds per image. If I were to manually correct the perspective on 100 images, APC would save me nearly an hour.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56168&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<b>4. What difference does it make for you being able to compose your shot with a\u00a0<\/b><b>perspective-corrected live preview?<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The live preview is truly a game changer. You lose part of the frame when adjusting perspective. Without a preview, you have to estimate that loss and account for it when composing. That is not an easy task even for an experienced photographer, because it is applied 3D geometrical calculus. The live preview shows you precisely what the final frame will look like and how much of the original frame you will lose. All perspective adjustment has limits. At extreme angles, the live preview lets me know how I should position myself in front of my scene for the best shot possible. This is where APC shines.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56145&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>5. Which motives did you find worked best when shooting with APC?<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Architecture, cityscapes and landscapes are certainly the photographic areas where APC<br \/>\nmakes a lot of sense. As matter of fact APC is helpful whenever you need well aligned<br \/>\nlines in the frame.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56160&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;56163&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We\u2019d like to thank Martin for sharing the results and feedback from his first photo tour using our APC feature.
