What's New in Tech Scout Camera

1.0.2

August 12, 2026

Tech Scout v1.0.2 introduces major new features, including PDF creation, integration between the Director’s Finder and Exposure Mode, updated in-app galleries, LUT import improvements, and numerous quality-of-life updates and bug fixes. CAMERA MODE • Flash compensation: after a flash capture, an exposure preview and adjustment window will appear prior to image processing. • Updated halation and glow rendering. • Improved image science for motion picture camera emulation. • Usability with Scout Viewfinder disabled has been improved, allowing for better compatibility with older iPhone models. DIRECTOR’S FINDER • You can now generate PDF reports from your Director’s Finder projects. These include contact sheets, vectorized data overlays for easy searching, full page setup and formatting controls, all adjustable to your specific preferences. Designed for printing or sharing digitally, directly from Tech Scout. • Director’s Finder and Exposure Modes are now coupled. Exposure information and settings now track between modes. • Director’s Finder onscreen overlay now shows calculated scene exposure information - FPS, EI, shutter, ND, calculated iris, and white balance. You now see accurate scene exposure onscreen in the camera data overlay. • Gallery has been updated to support both PDF creation and viewing. • The gallery project tray can now be collapsed, and new filters have been added. • Director’s Finder captures now save to Tech Scout Library by default - no more iOS Photo Library clutter. You can automatically import your existing captures at any time. • Scout projects are now easier to share and receive via iOS Messages. • Usability updates and bug-fixes throughout. EXPOSURE MODE • Exposure Mode is now integrated into your current Director’s Finder project, including camera settings, exposure settings, and save directory. • Auto EI feature added: complementary to Auto ND, Auto EI will calculate the ideal ISO for the scene based on a target iris and your camera settings. • Exposure Mode captures are saved in your current Director’s Finder project by default. • Exposure Mode captures can be included in Director’s Finder report PDFs. LOOKS & LUT MANAGEMENT • LUT import workflow has been simplified dramatically. A new “Import LUT” button has been added to setup mode. • LUT files can now be added directly from iOS Messages, Mail, AirDrop, or Files. • Multiple LUTs can now be imported simultaneously. • LUT target color space can be adjusted after import. • Performance improvements for large LUT files. NOTABLE BUG FIXES • Fixed a bug where captures could encounter an error on iOS 18. • Fixed a bug where multiple photos could not be shared simultaneously. • Fixed a bug where Apple ProRAW captures could process with the wrong exposure.

Above & beyond

A cinematographer’s dream tool. Everything you could ever want in an app for on set work. Highly recommend!

Changed the way I look at the iPhone as a creative tool.

This app has made using the iPhone’s camera fun again. The way it renders images is like nothing else I’ve seen coming out of a phone. I zoom in on the photos and the grain looks just like my film scans. The different film looks are great, and I like that I can add my own looks instead of it being limited to what the app provides.
