About

AETHERIS

AETHERIS 是一台可以握在手里的胶片相机。 它不是又一个"滤镜开关",而是一台有重量、有阻尼、会呼吸的机器。 转盘转起来有段落感,换卷有声,镜头在你手里轻轻浮动 —— 拍照这件事重新变慢了一点。 【九卷胶片,每一卷都有脾气】 从通透的日光卷到偏青的夜色卷,九种颜色各自独立调校。 没有一键美颜,也没有"AI 修图"这种偷懒的按钮 —— 每张照片就是你按下快门那一刻真实的光线。 【真正的手动,如果你想用】 挂到 M 档,快门、ISO、对焦、白平衡全部自己决定。 不想管它们也没关系,默认交给你一段准确的曝光,只管构图。 【3D 机身,可以转着看】 整台机器是立体的:机身涂装能换,光线跟着角度走,每一处刻字都是嵌进去而不是贴上去的。 【照片留在你的手机里】 所有处理都在本机完成,照片一张也不上传。 没有账号、没有云、没有社区、没有广告 —— 也没有人在看你拍了什么。 慢一点拍照。
