GridCam is a camera for people who decide the frame. The composition guides directors work with, the manual controls a cinema camera has, and color profiles graded from scratch. Everything a frame needs to look cinematic, live in the viewfinder, before you press the shutter. COMPOSE FIRST Rule of thirds, golden ratio, phi grid, golden triangle, leading lines, center dominance, symmetry, frame in frame and more, drawn over the live image. Save the ones you use and swipe between them. MANUAL CONTROLS White balance in Kelvin, shutter, ISO and focus, each on its own dial. Focus peaking marks what's sharp. Zebra stripes mark what's blown out. AE/AF lock holds a reading while you recompose. Pinch to zoom across every lens, and your manual settings carry across the lens change instead of snapping back to auto. FILM LOOKS Color profiles applied live, so you see the result while you compose rather than after. Film grain and halation are rendered on top of the image, not baked into the profile. RAW WHEN YOU NEED IT Capture unprocessed DNG with the full latitude for editing. Keep the ungraded frame alongside the finished one, and change the look on any saved shot later without touching the original. READY WHEN YOU ARE Home Screen widgets and a Control Center control put the camera one tap away, with your last shot on the Home Screen.
