Dual vs Hidden Layer

Dual is a mood-focused video camera that applies your filter the moment you shoot. Instead of editing after recording, what you see on screen becomes your result. Its biggest strength is that a single recording can save both portrait (9:16) and landscape (16:9) videos at the same time—so you no longer need to shoot separately for Instagram Stories and YouTube. ■ Filters that are finished as you shoot Choose GRAIN for a textured film mood, GLOW for soft light around your subject, or CLEAN for a bright and crisp tone. Combine filters with the color palette, where you can adjust temperature and tint directly, to create more than 800 moods. Add aspect ratios (9:16, 3:4, 1:1) and a fisheye lens for even more possibilities. ■ Portrait and landscape at once Save portrait and landscape videos together with one button. Choose the ratio that suits you: 9:16, 3:4, or 1:1. ■ Photos too Even when you are not recording, tap the shutter to save a filtered photo instantly. ■ Trendy fisheye lens Turn the fisheye effect on or off with one button. It adds a subtle convex look at the center, along with delicate color fringing inspired by film cameras. ■ Front camera support Keep the same mood when switching to selfie mode. Capture everyday moments with a film-like feeling—in both portrait and landscape at once.

The photos we take often hide a dozen or so layers! Let's go see what's inside. This app lets you view every layer in a photo, and it also has a few useful or fun photo tools! View Layers Pick a photo and you'll see all kinds of layers inside it — maybe a depth map, a glasses mask, and more. Every layer comes with a detailed explanation. You'll discover a lot! For example, I found out that with ProRAW, what I usually see in my photo library is just the JPG preview layer inside… Of course, you can export layers too. For example, export the Low-Processing Rendering of a ProRAW main photo — a special rendering you've probably never seen. It's closer to the raw data and great for editing! You can also export the depth map and use it in Photoshop for more accurate background blur. Photo Tools Oh, and using these hidden layers, we can also process photos. For example, add a depth map to a regular photo and it becomes a Portrait mode photo, so you can refocus and add background blur right in the Photos app! There's also Remove Sharpening and Natural Key Photo — really useful if you prefer less sharpening, or want your Live Photo key photo to keep its colors. This is just the beginning.
