I am looking for a gratis Android photo app. I am happy enough with the built-in and would accept a clone; I just don’t want Google involved in my photos.

Must have

• Ability to store images on SD card


• Does not sync with the cloud in any way


• Switch between front & rear camera


• flash on/off/auto


• zoom

Nice to have

• A Windows companion app, to let me easily transfer my photo to my PC, preferably also delete them.


• Panorama mode


• video mode


• redeye protection


• face detection


• sound off (mute)


• integrated QR app


• exposure length/aperture control


• long exposure timer


• timer before taking photo


• image stabilization

Basically, nothing too fancy (although I won’t complain about extra features). I don’t use FaceTweet, etc, and can edit on PC, rather than on the phone.

Just not Google.

I'd strongly recommend Open Camera – which is available at F-Droid and meets all your must-have requirements. Your nice-to-haves are covered partly: there is a video mode, and you can adjust a lot of parameters. It has image stabilzation, face detection, timer, and more – but AFAIK no QR integration (at least I didn't see that).

The app is easy to use and has a pretty good quality. Using it myself for years, and am very satisfied with it.

^{Open Camera (source: Google Play)}

Some of your required features can be seen in this screenshot: using front/back camera, taking photos/videos (right "column"). The "lock" symbol lets you lock exposure while changing the motive/perspective, which I use e.g. if I later want to stitch panoramas from multiple shots.
