KAMRA. Film camera. No excuses. Eight hand-tuned stocks — Kodak Gold, Fuji C, Velvia, Ilford, Portra, and more. Each one built with its own grain structure, halation, colour curves, and shadow tint. Applied the moment you shoot. Grain that reads the light. Coarser in the shadows. Finer in the highlights. Animated every frame. Halation that bleeds warm and red from your highlights — not a glow filter. Physics. Every frame gets a randomized tone, light balance, and shadow depth. Same scene. Never the same photo. KAMRA shoots like film feels. — 8 colour-graded film stocks — Real luminance grain · ISO 100 to 3200 — True halation & bloom — Live graded viewfinder — Randomised light leaks per shot — Soft focus with adjustable bloom — 0.5× · 1× · 2× lens switching — Self-timer · flash support — Home screen widget

f/64 is a camera with one promise: what the sensor saw is what you keep. PURE RAW Every shot saves a true Bayer RAW (DNG) next to the HEIC. No AI, no computational tricks, no Deep Fusion, no Smart HDR. Your negative, untouched. FULL MANUAL Shutter speed, ISO, exposure bias, focus and white balance, each on its own precise dial with real photographic stops. Lock any parameter, keep your settings between sessions. TOOLS THAT MATTER - Focus peaking, zebra stripes and a focus loupe - Live luminance histogram - All lenses including the 8x sensor crop - RAW exposure brackets (hold the shutter) - Subject tracking, AE/AF lock, horizon level - 1:1, 4:3 and 16:9 framing; the DNG always keeps the full sensor - Optional watermark and an Instagram-ready story card - Optional geotagging QUIET DESIGN A monochrome interface that stays out of your way, rich haptics and signature sounds. Photos go straight to your library; the app collects nothing about you. FREE, HONESTLY No ads, no subscriptions, no locked features, ever. If f/64 saves you a shot you love, there is a voluntary tip jar in the settings. Named after Group f/64, Ansel Adams and friends, who believed a photograph should be sharp, honest and made by hand.
