14 DAY TRIAL // Lumia Camera Beta received quite a few updates in the last couple of months. The last one brings only a few new features and improvements, which puts it one small step closer to the final build.
It's worth mentioning that, if you don't have a Lumia smartphone compatible with this Windows Phone application, then you will not be able to use it.
Microsoft confirmed that Lumia Camera Beta was only available for a handful of smartphones, such as Lumia 930, Lumia Icon, Lumia 1520, Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL.
As you can see, the application is exclusively available for Lumia smartphones, so if you own another Windows Phone handset, then there's no chance that you will be able to take advantage of its features.
Speaking of which, Lumia Camera Beta offers some nifty features that improve the photos captured with the cameras included in Lumia smartphones.
With Lumia Camera Beta, users can enable auto mode when they want to simply point out and shoot, or switch to full manual control if they want state-of-the-art pictures.
Make sure you have Lumia Denim if you want to use this app
The application allows users to capture videos in 4K resolution, or in full HD with Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL, by simply long press the capture button.
The application includes the latest imaging algorithms for better image quality, and provides users with many manual controls for video capture.
The latest update introduces a few new features as well, such as the option to access Office lens from settings menu.
In addition, the Pro settings will be remembered after restarting the application, so you won't have to worry about having to remember them by yourself.
Last but not least, Microsoft confirmed that it has added some general performance improvements and many bug fixes.
You can now download Lumia Camera Beta for Windows Phone for free via Windows Phone Store. The application should be fully compatible with all devices powered by Windows Phone 8.1 and up. Keep in mind that Lumia Denim update is required in order for Lumia Camera Beta to work.
