Tiltique

Read full description

Tiltique transforms your photos into cinematic miniatures with a professional tilt-shift lens effect — the same optical magic used by photographers to make real scenes look like tiny worlds. Unlike flat blur filters, Tiltique simulates how a real tilted lens actually behaves. A precisely shaped sweet spot stays razor sharp while everything outside it falls into smooth, natural bokeh. Drag the focus ring anywhere on your image. Tilt it. Squeeze it into a narrow band. Push the blur deep. The result looks like it came out of a $3,000 lens, not a phone. WHAT TILTIQUE DOES • Selective focus with a fully draggable sweet spot • Adjustable falloff — from hard optical edge to silky gradient • Tilt and squeeze controls to shape the focus zone into any ellipse or band • Vignette that darkens only the blurred areas, exactly like a real lens • Soft glow for a vintage film look • Sharpness boost inside the sweet spot for that pop-and-fall contrast STYLE PRESETS Start with Classic, Velour, Spiral, or Sundial — four distinct optical personalities — then fine-tune every parameter to make it your own. MADE FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS No subscriptions. No ads. No accounts. Load a photo, dial in your look, save or share at full resolution.
