About

TiltShift3

Features
Read full description

Tiltshift recreates the perfectly imperfect look of vintage large format tilt shift focusing and lens distortion. The basic controls help recreate these focusing effects using your phone's LiDAR. Once a photo is taken with this app you can change point of focus and the plane of focus. Swirl adds in a vintage lens radial blurring effect. Keep editing your image with color presets or create your own including using LUTs. Save your presents to reuse your settings. Tiltshift contains a more detailed features documentation within the app.
