Ready to streamline your photography workflow and impress clients with instant, high-quality image preview sharing? Dream of providing immediate previews without crowding around a single device? Photon Studio was made for you! Photon Studio grabs the latest photo taken with Photon Camera on your iPhone, and allows you to easily display it on your iPad, Apple Silicon Mac, or another iPhone connected to an external monitor. Within Photon Studio, you can favorite or delete the image from these connected devices in real time, as well as view the photo's metadata and histogram. You can even zoom all the way in to "pixel peep" and get very finely detailed views of parts of your image. This makes it a snap to find the great photos and cull any image that didn't make the cut. And the fuss is kept to a minimum! Photon Studio intelligently selects the best way to connect to your iPhone be it via a local wifi network, ad hoc wifi, or bluetooth. So even if your network coverage is spotty, your photos will be delivered promptly to your screen. And not necessarily just one screen at that! Photon Camera can connect to multiple devices running Photon Studio, so you don't have to choose just one place to send your work. Conversely, Photon Studio can quickly swap between camera connections and get the latest from each on the fly, so that every angle is covered. Photon Studio is the newest link in our chain of professionally focused photography tools. Use it with Photon Camera for a smooth, beautiful and streamlined photography experience. Then take your photos to the next level with Photon Enhance, our comprehensive photo editor. Our entire suite of photography tools follows our core philosophy of bringing you professional grade tools with easy to understand, gorgeous interfaces. We've taken our decades of experience with iOS photography tools and distilled down the absolute best possible experience, while retaining full control over every aspect of your images.
