Flat screen displays are much more stable and reliable than the old displays. However, we may still look at our display and wonder whether it is accurate. Does your laptop display white at home match the white at work? Is the balance between the highlights and the shadows right? ByEye let you capture and record the appearance of colours by matching them on the phone display, with the help of the camera.
Offcut Camera
Read full descriptionHide full description
Offcut Camera brings a creative camera and a photo editor together. Find a look before you press the shutter, or start with a photo from your library. MAKE IT YOURS Explore film-inspired colour and black-and-white looks, with adjustable strength. Go subtle with grain and soft highlights, or change the feel completely with Warp and Liquid Glass lens effects. SHOOT WITH CONTROL Tap to focus, then slide to adjust exposure. Use the grid and tilt guides to compose your frame, move between supported lenses, and choose your aspect ratio. Capture formats and resolution options adapt to your iPhone and selected camera. EDIT THE DETAILS Adjust exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, temperature, tint, saturation and vibrance. Fine-tune individual colours with HSL, add split toning, and use clarity, sharpening and noise reduction. Crop, straighten and finish with a border or a Photo Frame showing available camera details. EXPERIMENT WITH TEXTURE Diffuse your image through Frosted Glass, build a print look with Halftone, or turn a photo into crisp colour blocks with Pixelate. Explore Slice Shift and Lens Distortion, then shape the result with grain, vignette, bloom and halation. KEEP THE ORIGINAL Press and hold to compare your edit with the original. Undo and redo as you work, then save an edited copy to Photos without replacing the source. PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF Edits are saved as local drafts, so you can close a photo and return to your adjustments later. Saving to Photos creates a separate edited copy. Drafts stay in Offcut Camera on this device, and reopening an edit requires access to the same unchanged source photo. EVERY TOOL INCLUDED The app is free, with no subscriptions, in-app purchases, advertising or account requirement. Image processing happens on your device. Optional photo location tagging uses your permission and can be turned off in Settings. Capture formats, resolutions and lens options depend on your device, selected camera and shooting conditions. RAW capture retains the original RAW source; creative effects do not rewrite its sensor data. Film looks are independent interpretations, not official manufacturer profiles. Offcut Camera is not affiliated with or endorsed by camera or film manufacturers.
