DIGILOG CAMERA is a camera app built around image development rather than effects. Instead of applying filters, each frame is processed through a custom pipeline starting from the sensor’s linear signal: color space handling, gamma shaping, color balance, and a final look designed to behave predictably. The app is informed by years of color grading work in DaVinci Resolve, with the goal of bringing a disciplined, film-oriented approach to image creation on the iPhone. DIGILOG supports open-gate recording and professional codecs such as ProRes 422 and H.264, allowing more control over framing and post-production than the standard camera app, even on older devices. DIGILOG is not about style presets. It’s a practical exploration of how light, color, and code interact.
