## What is Chama Optics?

Chama Optics — Edit your photos on the spot: color grade, frame, and mosaic faces, all in one app.

A photo post-processing app for mirrorless and DSLR camera users. It offers EXIF-based shooting info frames, automatic face mosaic, color grading, and cheki (Polaroid-style) frames.

◆ Made for you if...

Events, travel, & street photography —
Weddings, tourist spots, and more — whenever you need to mosaic other people's faces.

Sharing photos on social media —
Post fan activity photos, memories with friends, or event highlights on SNS.

DSLR/mirrorless users & gear reviewers —
When sharing your shots with shooting info (camera, lens, aperture, etc.) embedded in the frame.

◆ Face Detection & Privacy Protection
• On-device automatic face detection
• Apply mosaic or sticker to detected faces
• Manually add, delete, or adjust detection areas

◆ LUT Color Grading
• Apply professional LUT filters (.cube format)
• Fine-tune exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, clarity, saturation, and more
• Apply LUT individually or in batch

◆ Cheki (Polaroid-Style) Frames
• Polaroid-style borders — adjustable width, color, bottom margin, and text (or EXIF)
• Play Dice! for random sticker placement, or place them freely

◆ EXIF-Based Shooting Info Frames
• Multiple built-in frame themes
• Auto-display camera, lens, focal length, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO
• Verbose EXIF to view full metadata including maker notes

◆ Batch Processing & Export
• Edit multiple photos at once with batch apply — export as JPEG, PNG, or WebP
• Fine-tune quality and scaling modes (max width/height, longside, and more)


◆ Privacy First
All image processing is performed entirely on-device. No cloud uploads, no external AI models — your photos never leave your device.

Inspired by the travel VTuber Akai Haato, who loves photography.
