## What is FrameAtlas?

Analog soul. Digital precision.

FrameAtlas is the missing link between your film camera and your digital archive. Film has no metadata. When your scans come back, every frame is a mystery, where it was shot, when it was taken, what worked. FrameAtlas logs GPS, time, lens, ISO, and more at the exact moment you press the shutter so you finally know.

WHY FRAMEATLAS

Film photography is about being present. FrameAtlas captures the data in the background so you don’t have to.
