Developer, please explain how…
Developer, at the moment eight of this app’s ten in-app purchase items are listed as being (temporarily) free — but it’s unclear how to actually “buy” them — so, it would be very helpful if you post a how-to explanation. Also, the user guide/tutorial and the app’s “Settings” option all seem to be MIA. If you can explain and/or fix these problem(s) please let me know and I’ll be happy to update and likely upgrade my review... Thanks!

Now I understand
I’ve been messing with cameras for many years and this is the best way I’ve seen to show the effects of lenses and lighting. And it’s a lot of fun.
