一台相机,一卷日常。 有些瞬间,值得多看一眼,再按下快门。 EMULSION 是一款以胶片摄影流程为灵感的影像工具。在这里,照片不只是套上一个滤镜:你可以选择相机与胶卷,体验不同画幅的构图,拍摄、回卷、走进暗房,再把完成的作品按卷收藏。让每一次拍摄,都有开始,也有回看的余韵。 【从喜欢的相机开始】 在相机仓库中挑选自己的拍摄伙伴,搭配不同镜头与胶卷。135、120、110 与 SUPER 8,各有不同的画幅与影像趣味;标准画幅、半格和宽幅,让细碎日常与开阔风景都有合适的位置。 【让一卷照片拥有自己的影调】 彩色负片、黑白与反转片,以不同的色彩、反差和颗粒呈现同一个世界。通过样片与滑动对比,找到更适合眼前场景的胶卷,而不是只凭名字选择。 【把暗房,也变成创作的一部分】 选择自动或手动冲洗,体验照片逐渐呈现的过程。保留胶片边框时,可选择显示胶卷型号与编号,让画面之外,也留下这一卷的身份。 【已有的照片,也值得重新构图】 从手机导入横向或纵向照片,拖动、缩放,选择完整显示或填满画面,细调你真正想留下的部分。旋转照片时,信息文字保持正向;冲洗时间、药水、地点,以及头像与名字,都可以按需显示。 【按卷收藏,慢慢回看】 在照片库中整理作品,查看、分享与导出。胶卷不只是拍摄时的选择,也是一段日常的归档方式。 【保留一点拍照之外的乐趣】 在离线音乐库里挑一张唱片,用 Apple Watch 遥控快门。首次进入主要页面时,教程会逐个高亮真实按钮;需要时,也能在设置中重新观看。 核心影像处理在本机完成,作品保存在本机,无需创建账号。App 内金币为本地功能计数,不可购买、转让或兑换现金。 愿每一卷,都有值得被留下的光。
