Digital Paula v2 now with more than 10'000 photographic filter combinations included (using the Camare Experimental Camera app photo engine) - c.f. http://matnum.net . Effects that you won't find anywhere else for uniquely rendered photos. Used either as a standalone photo app to speed-capture and use the full power of the custom image engine in a fast point-and-shoot style app or simply to create complex presets without having to go in the deeper and sometimes complex settings of Camare, this is an essential tool for any experimental photographer. Each generated photo includes a QR code that will let you select and classify your favorite experimental settings as well as recall them either for use in this app or in the more complex pro-oriented Camare app. You can now create an HD video of the current photo roll for archival une a single file of a whole experimental session. Or to share. Tired of having to rely on third-party external developments of filters and approaches to digital photography treatment, this app is based on the proprietary engine I developed for my personal experimental photographic works. Its multiple layer data-processing attempts to exacerbate digital characteristics of smartphone photography but also to enrich the image with the sensuality of analog processes. Combining both creative filters (aka insaturators) and simulations (aka filmulators - including models for various substrates e.g. expired film, digital sensors, thermal printers, …) and mixed thanks to a home-developed software engine, the variations are virtually endless. Hopefully this will open your creative horizons to discovering other digital-image-matter characteristics (matière numérique in French). Have fun!Developed by a photographer for photographers, I will regularly add simulations based on classic cameras and films but also on old digital cameras and sensors of interest.

This app contains a Photos extension to crop and deskew rectangles in a photo. Since the rectangles may be skewed by perspective, the cropping tool allows individual placement of the four corners of the 2D quadrilateral -- and then deskews the contained rectangle. This is useful for business cards or slides or book covers or the like which have been photographed at an angle. The app mimics the functionality of the Photos extension and can access the Photos library or the camera to get an image. One can also crop the image from any file. Unless the image is retrieved from the Photos library, the app will store the cropped image to a user-selected file. Corners can be nudged by tapping on the corner circles. The corner will move by a pixel in the direction of the quadrant of the circle that was tapped on.
