Description
This app is not a regular multi-functional camera app, its specific purpose is capturing photos with every element in focus, making it simple to employ a Photography technique known as focus stacking, which regular camera apps don't have.
Regular camera apps focus on a specific point of interest within a scene, which suffices for most everyday images. However, in scenarios with significant depth variation, you'll notice that while the foreground is in focus, the background often blurs. This is evident if you point a standard camera app at a close object, the camera app will auto-focus on the object, but the background will not be in focus.
Multifocus camera addresses this limitation by capturing a sequence of photos at varying focus settings. It then employs automatic focus-stacking algorithms to combine these images into a single composite photo. The process known as focus-stacking is commonly practiced by photographers using standard cameras rather than smartphones, with post-processing done on desktop computers. This App attempts to hide the complexity and combines the multiple steps of the process into 1 button. While this method demands a little more patience than snapping a photo with a regular camera app, under certain conditions of depth variation, it enables you to capture photos on your smartphone that would otherwise be unachievable with regular camera apps due to hardware constraints and optical limits.

Good in idea. LOVE the idea. It would be exactly what I need. Unfortunately the stacked images are blurred to hell. Not sure if it's bc I need a tripod...

Simple but effective point and shoot combined focus stacker and camera app. I use this for model railway photos. Just set the number of photos, hold your phone solidly in one position and shoot. Too few photos selected gives banding. Too many photos gives blurring / jpeg style artifacts when zooming the composited photo. The sweet spot seems to be around 8 or 9 for my usage. I think 8 was the default of the box. For a free app I am not going to grumble.

App freezes when the capturing process starts, right after the countdown finishes. The camera feed freezes and the initial popup (Capturing 1/8) stays up. I have to force stop the app to get it out of that state.

Does not allow the user to switch cameras (my phone has three on the back and the one it picked has the lowest resolution) it also doesn't allow the user to zoom. Very bare bones utility.

Crashes the first time I use this. It takes photos then proceeds to process them. When processing got to 100%, the app crashes. Also, why was the default resolution set to 1920x1080 when the camera is capable of much higher resolution?
