About

Super Pro Camera

Features
Read full description

Treat your phone like a pro camera, and it becomes one. Super Pro keeps what's easy about the iPhone camera (slide between lenses, tap, shoot) and adds what a professional camera is supposed to do: shoot log, show your LUT, remember your setup, and tell you what's going on. YOUR LUT, LIVE, WHILE YOU ROLL Import your LUT and see your grade on screen while you record. Not afterward. Not in the edit. Keep the file as clean Apple Log for grading, or have the look baked into the clip. FOCUS AND EXPOSURE, SEPARATELY Tap to focus. Double-tap to set exposure. Two different jobs, two different taps. Press and hold to lock both. SWIPE FOR A CLEAN VIEW Swipe down and the menus disappear. Swipe again and the lenses go too. No icons, no buttons, nothing between you and the shot. It's just you and your content. Swipe up and everything's back. OPENS HOW YOU LEFT IT Pick the lens it opens on, and Super Pro remembers the rest from last time: frame rate, resolution, color, LUT. Open the app and you're ready to shoot, like a real camera sitting on your shelf. BUY IT ONCE No subscription. No in-app purchases. You buy it once and it's yours, like a real camera. MORE THAT MAKES IT SUPER PRO • The Status Pill at the top of the screen is also your quick menu. Every setting is a single tap away. • The app shows how each lens is achieved: full sensor or cropped. • Monitoring tools you'd expect on a cinema camera: waveform, audio meter, level, grid and frame guides. • Slide between lenses like the stock camera app, even while recording in log. • Save to the Photos app or straight into a folder in Files. • Bake your LUT into a clip after you've shot it, ready to share straight to social. • Shoot Apple Log in 10-bit HEVC or ProRes. • And yes, there's a photo mode: HEIC or ProRAW, up to 48 MP.
