For our application, we are aiming to have full control over setting and locking the camera exposure settings when taking a video. We’re working with Apple’s AVFoundation framework for a range of devices, but most of the development is focused on the iPad 8 front camera. The manual settings are specific to our use, so we aim to use the custom exposure mode with e.g ISO = 100, exposureDuration = 1/60, and a fixed white balance. The duration, ISO, and white balance are all set in advance of recording, but when we begin we can see that something is still adjusting and compensating for lighting changes. We then also tried locking the exposure mode after setting the custom values, but there appears to be a delay in this lock taking effect. While tracking the ISO during a recording, we see that the ISO values change in the first second of the recording, leading to oversaturated images, despite our efforts to keep it locked. This is our attempt to lock the settings using
