FCamera  by David Jacobs

FCamera is an open-source camera application for the N900. You can use it as an alternative to the built-in camera application. It provides significantly more manual control over capture parameters, and shoots RAW (in the Adobe DNG format). It also includes some nifty features. It has an automatic HDR mode, which has an HDR viewfinder that lets you preview the full range to be captured. It has a "lucky imaging" mode in which it takes a burst of shots and only saves the sharpest. We've found that this simple trick lets you handhold exposures of up to half a second.

FCamera really has two purposes. It a useful camera application for photographers. It is also a base camera application that students and hobbyists can modify to experiment with new photographic techniques. Given the second requirement, we've tried to be fairly careful about balancing features versus the impact they have on ease-of-understanding of the source. In most cases we've favored the simpler source code, which is why you don't see a lot of custom widgets or fancy icons. That said, it could always be simpler. We welcome any patches to streamline and clarify FCamera's source.

HDRcapture  by Natasha Gelfand

Application for capturing and merging HDR images.

This is a camera application for creating extended dynamic range images on the N900. The camera automatically meters the scene and captures three images: one that correctly exposes the highlights, the other that exposes the shadows, and the third that exposes the midtones. The images are then combined together into a single image. The result is a single low dynamic range (8-bit) image but in which all areas are well exposed. The app also allows for saving of the original captured images for later offline mergning if desired (i.e. in Photoshop).
