When HTC and Samsung came out with burst camera in their quad core devices we were all excited by one of the camera feature "Burst shot mode"

But now thanks to Spritefish we can now have the same experience on our Android devices and you don't need to have the One X or S3

Fast Burst Camera has made its way onto the Play Store and it does exactly what we were looking for. Simply hold down the button and you can snap up to 30 frames in a single second if your device allows it. The free version works just fine, but has a few ads which can seem intrusive. For $4, you can buy the pro version which unlocks some additional features such as auto-focus and lighting settings. View the video below to see some real life experiences with the application and see if it could help you take some neat shots.

Note : due to the high speed, pictures are not taken in the highest resolution possible.

With that kind of pic resolutions, I might be better off by just shooting a video and extracting those frames manually afterwards.

Used the app on my galaxy note, I am amazed by its ability. Just the image quality needs improvement. I tried the lite version though, anyone see any difference in the pro version?

When I read the portal news piece I was anticipating a tool to take rapid fire full resolution pics. While my G2X doesn't have a dedicated camera processing chip but it is still a dual core Tegra phone. I was disappointed to continue reading and discover it was about an app I've had on my phone for nearly a year. Don't get me wrong, I really like the app but it wasn't what I was expecting. Kinda bummed because the stock ROM camera software was pretty good and could do six photo bursts at 2MB but the ROM sucked monkey balls. Still recommend fast bust camera a long a you have plenty of light.

The burst speed is incredible, no lag but the resolution is very low (800*480 insead of 2000*1600)

Yeah 800*480 with no lag really isn't impressive nowadays and the pictures are useless at that resolution.

Note that this will give you a bad result, as the video is compressed and ripping pictures from this compressed stream will give pictures with compression artifacts in them.

Nice app. It would be great if we could adjust the shutter speed manually.

You can set the shutter speed in the preferences for the app.

This app was the free app of the day on Amazon last year, it is in no way new.

I used it for a while but image quality is not the best. Improve image quality and I may be tempted to give it another try.

I've been looking for this function in my phone. Always seemed odd that it didn't come with it out of the box...
Thanks for the app!
