Lumen Camera turns your iPhone into a serious photography and cinematography tool — with the polish of Apple Camera and the depth of a pro mirrorless. Built natively for iOS 26, with Apple's Cinematic Video Capture API for rack focus, tracking focus and adjustable depth of field. NEW — PURE MODE A new way to shoot — your photo, developed like film, right inside the app. Phone cameras fuse frames, lift shadows and smooth away grain — it's why everyday photos look so good, and it's all still here. Pure is for when you want the other thing: a single frame, developed in the app the way a darkroom develops a negative — classical tools, the same fixed recipe every shot. No AI. No computational processing. Honest grain. Highlights that roll off. Shadows that stay dark. • Live Pure Preview in the viewfinder • One untouched frame, straight off the sensor • 10-bit HEIC with real HDR, or JPEG • Keep the RAW negative alongside the finished photo • Works with manual controls and brackets • Semi-Manual and Manual, optical lenses, 12 MP THREE WAYS TO SHOOT • Auto — point and shoot, now at 24 MP • Semi-Manual — pick the variable that matters, the camera balances the rest • Manual — direct control of ISO, shutter, focus, white balance, exposure FORMATS • HEIC / JPEG — Apple Camera quality with Deep Fusion, Smart HDR and Photographic Styles, up to 48 MP • Apple ProRAW — up to 48 MP, 12-bit DNG with full editing latitude • Pure — a single sensor frame, developed in the app • Save a ready-to-share HEIF or JPEG with any RAW capture CREATIVE FILTERS • See the look live before you shoot • Keep the untouched RAW alongside the filtered photo EXPOSURE & FOCUS BRACKETING • Exposure bracketing — stack EV steps into one true-HDR photo • Focus bracketing — shift focus through the scene, stack for detail front to back • Macro focus stacking — now works up close, for tiny subjects • Smart Mode picks the range and frame count, or set near and far focus yourself • On-device stacking across lenses and formats MANUAL & FOCUS TOOLS • ISO, shutter, exposure compensation, white balance and focus, with numeric readouts • Focus peaking, plus a pinpoint manual-focus loupe • Live luminance and RGB histograms, and zebra stripes with an adjustable threshold • Tap to focus, drag to set exposure, long-press to lock AE/AF CINEMATIC VIDEO • Tap a face, object or point to rack focus like a film camera • Adjustable simulated aperture (f/2.0–f/16) • Automatic subject tracking, on-device • ProRes or H.265, with cinematic stabilization PORTRAIT MODE • Live preview of the background blur • Adjustable aperture before AND after capture • A depth overlay showing what's in focus PRO VIDEO • 4K up to 60 fps, 1080p up to 240 fps • ProRes 422 / 422 HQ / 422 LT, and Apple Log • Codec, frame rate, stabilization, audio and color are yours to set • Spatial Audio capture SAVE WHERE YOU WANT • Your Photos library, a connected USB-C drive, or a Face ID–locked private gallery in the app LIQUID GLASS UI • Controls that stay close without covering the shot • Full Camera Control on iPhone 16 and later — slide to zoom, press to capture MULTILINGUAL English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese and Simplified Chinese.
