Listener Request: An Interview with the Camera FV-5 developer about the whole new Camera API

 

It's just a request and I've absolutely no idea if the developer would participate in such an interview, but I think he would be a very interesting guest to talk about the L release and its new Camera API. '

 

- he is into photography

- his apps have always been about great manual control for professional use (photo & video)

- he's been working on a big update with a switch to the whole new Camera API v2 in Android L for quite a while and recently launched a beta

 

I think he would be a very interesting guest for many of us listeners to talk about the new camera api and it's new possibilities like real long time exposures, DNG raw support and such things. In my opinion it's one of the biggest changes in Android L we user will benefit from.

His new version supporting the camera api v2 has left the beta and is currently rolling out over the next days. The first two devices that support the new API are the Nexus 5 & 6.  He has also updated the user guide on his website to include the new Lollipop functions

Leif Sikorski So I checked in with him a while back and his timezone makes an interview on either show very difficult. I'd love to get him on and I've hit him up again to see if we can coordinate something awesome. Thanks for the headsup!
