Downloaded Fcam.
It is awesome for a mobile phone.
Manual control of ISO (100 to 3200)
Manual control of shutter speed (1/8000s to 1sec)
manual WB (3000 to 8000)
Manual focus (5cm to >5m)
expose for highlights or shadows
HDR (but doesn't create the HDR photo but easy to do this in Photoshop) The HDR creator is an app in Dev
Live histogram
rule of thirds grid
multi burst frames

This might be a silly question, but I tried opening the app, changing it to HDR setting, and pressing the camera button... it seemed to take a photo, and when I press quit is says 'saving' but then I have no idea where the image(s?) are stored!

any ideas?!

If you tap and slide up from the main camera screen, you can see the photos you've taken. If you tap and slide down, you can also set the application to place a JPEG of the captured image into your gallery.
