Fexer is a professional manual camera for iPhone — the controls of a dedicated camera, real-time color grading, and cinematic shooting modes, all in your pocket. MANUAL CONTROLS • ISO (25–6400), shutter speed (1/8000–30s), and manual focus, each with an auto toggle • White balance in Kelvin (3200–7500K) plus tint, with 7 presets • AE lock, four metering modes, and an EV compensation strip SHOOTING MODES • Photo — AEB bracketing, RAW / RAW+JPEG, LUT baked at capture • Video — 1080p/4K in HEVC, H.264, or ProRes, with GPS metadata • Long Exposure — multi-frame blending up to 60 frames • Burst, Self-Timer, and Timelapse • Anamorphic — 2x horizontal desqueeze with a 2.39:1 crop guide • Night and Portrait modes REAL-TIME COLOR GRADING 21 film-inspired looks across Film, Genre, and Mood categories — applied live in the viewfinder and baked into every capture. Includes classic film emulations like Portra 400, Tri-X, and Velvia alongside cinematic and moody grades. VIEWFINDER TOOLS Grid overlays, RGB/Luma/Parade histogram, waveform monitor, vectorscope, focus peaking, zebra stripes, false color, and an electronic level — the same tools you'd expect from a dedicated cinema camera, live in your viewfinder. NON-DESTRUCTIVE EDITING Adjust exposure, contrast, shadows, highlights, saturation, vibrance, warmth, sharpness, vignette, crop, and rotation after the fact — your original capture is never touched. Fexer collects no data, has no ads, and makes no network requests. Everything happens on your device. Requires a physical iPhone — the camera does not work in the Simulator.
