Scatto vs Microprism

Scatto is two tools in one: a full RAW editor for your whole library and a camera built for photographers. A FULL RAW EDITOR — FOR EVERY PHOTO Open any photo in your library, including RAW files from your DSLR or mirrorless, and develop it like in a digital darkroom. RAW files are redeveloped from the negative on every adjustment: exposure, white balance, sharpening and noise reduction work inside development itself, where quality is highest. • Light: exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks • Color: white balance, tint, vibrance with protected skin tones, saturation • Master and per-channel R, G, B tone curves • Eight HSL bands: hue, saturation and luminance, color by color • Detail: sharpening, luminance and color noise reduction, clarity • Effects: vignette and grain • Twelve film Looks with adjustable strength • Interactive crop with aspect ratios, straighten, rotation and mirroring Hold to compare before/after, histogram always in view. Non-destructive: every edit exports a new photo and your original is never touched; a pure develop keeps gain-map HDR. A REAL CAMERA A viewfinder that responds like a camera body: tap to focus and expose, hold for AE/AF lock, pinch for continuous zoom, drag to compensate exposure. The shutter is always ready — shoot in quick succession while development happens in the background — and you can also fire with the volume buttons or the Camera Control. JUST LIGHT — RAW, the honest way Capture native Bayer RAW with computation turned almost all the way down: no aggressive HDR, no over-sharpening, no "smart" reprocessing. Your library gets the negative — pure DNG; opt in and an HEIC companion rides along with an adaptive gain map: real HDR with zero tone mapping. In the review, press and hold to compare the same shot against Apple's processing. Apple ProRAW is supported on capable devices. FILM LOOKS, LIVE IN THE VIEWFINDER Twelve film stocks modeled on real references — from '60s slide film to tungsten night negative with its red halation, to black & white pushed to 1600 — shown in real time as you compose. Grain in the midtones, halation, vignetting. Your RAW always stays clean: the look is baked into the HEIC only. MANUAL CONTROLS • Shutter Priority and ISO Priority, plus full Manual with long exposures up to the sensor's real limit • Analog needle light meter and live RGB histogram — free • Focus peaking and zebra stripes on blown highlights • Dedicated Macro mode, gyro level, 3/10s self-timer • Control dials with haptic detents PRIVATE BY DESIGN Scatto collects nothing. Everything happens on your device. No accounts, no analytics, no trackers. Your photos are yours. FREE, AND PRO Free forever: tap to focus and expose, AE/AF lock, continuous zoom, level, self-timer, volume buttons and Camera Control, HEIC or JPEG capture, the analog meter, the live histogram, review with EXIF, two live Film Looks (Chrome 64 and Mono 400), the library gallery and the basic editor (exposure and crop). Scatto Pro unlocks the full editor — advanced light, color, curves, HSL, RAW-level detail, effects and every Look — plus native RAW / Just Light and ProRAW, Manual / Shutter / ISO Priority with long exposures, manual white balance and focus, focus peaking, zebras, macro, film aspect ratios and advanced grids. Scatto Pro is available as a yearly subscription with a 7-day free trial, a monthly subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase.

Your photos, honest. Microprism captures pure, unfiltered RAW: the scene as your lens actually saw it, with the heavy computational processing turned all the way down. No smoothing, no watercolor skies, no invisible "fixes." Just your shot. THE LOOK OF EARLY PHONE PHOTOS, DONE RIGHT Remember when phone pictures had character, with warm tones, real grain, a little glow and a soft vignette? Microprism brings back that early-smartphone, filtered-feed feeling with retro looks you apply on your terms: • Warm, faded color and moody high-contrast fades • True black & white, from crunchy and neutral to soft and cool • Cinematic and classic emulsion grades with real grain, bloom and halation Every look is drawn by hand, not borrowed. The retro looks soften detail on purpose, the way early phone photos did. The cinematic looks keep every pixel. A COACH THAT CATCHES IT BEFORE YOU SHOOT Turn on the coach and it watches the frame with you: closed eyes, a backlit face, a tilted horizon, a cut-off hand, a cluttered background, a shaky grip, even a smudged lens. It tells you what you can do right now (move, reframe, wipe the lens, wait for the light), and after the shot it can offer a quick note on what worked. It never edits your photo for you, and it only speaks up when you ask. SHOOT MORE, OVERTHINK LESS Not sure what to point at? Microprism sends you gentle creative prompts, little photo challenges like "shoot in black & white" or "find something green," to get you out and shooting. Tap one and the camera opens ready in a matching look. A REAL CAMERA UNDER THE HOOD • Full manual control over focus, exposure, ISO, shutter and zoom, plus aperture on iPhone 18 Pro • RAW capture, with optional Apple ProRAW • Full manual control over focus, exposure, ISO, shutter and zoom • Tap a face to lock focus and exposure on it • Live histogram, focus peaking and zebra stripes • Software long exposure for light trails and silky water • Video that records with your chosen look applied, live • Works with Camera Control, Shortcuts, widgets and Control Center STUDIO: YOUR SHOT, REDEVELOPED Come back to any RAW shot, or import one from Photos, and give it a new look anytime. Crop freely or to a classic ratio, straighten and fine-tune, or turn it into a screen-print halftone or a two-ink riso duotone on textured paper. Your original is never touched. Save to Photos or export to iCloud Drive when you're done. FREE TO START, YOURS TO UNLOCK Download free and start shooting: honest RAW capture, a set of sample looks, and the exposure coach are on the house. One simple, one-time unlock, never a subscription, opens the full look catalog, Studio, video, long exposure, and the full coach. YOURS, AND ONLY YOURS Microprism runs entirely on your device, coach included. No account, no sign-up, no tracking, nothing is collected.
