barecam shows you what your camera actually saw. Your iPhone takes a beautiful photo, but it's not quite yours. Before you ever see it, frames are stacked, faces are guessed at, skies are repainted and shadows are lifted. barecam stays out of the way. One exposure, read straight off the sensor. TWO WAYS TO SHOOT • Bayer RAW: the sensor's own 12-bit data, saved as a DNG with nothing added. Open it in Lightroom, Capture One or Photos and make it yours. • Signature: barecam's own look, made for people who want a finished photo. Warm, quiet colour, a soft film curve, fine grain and a gentle glow around lights. It's developed from the RAW and saved as a HEIC. WITH BAYER, NONE OF THIS • Deep Fusion • Smart HDR • Tone mapping • Sharpening • Semantic rendering • Photographic Styles FIVE DIALS, ON GLASS • ISO and shutter across your camera's full range • Exposure up to ±3 stops • White balance from 2500 to 9000 K, kept as metadata in RAW • Manual focus • Every dial has an Auto stop, one swipe away AN EDITOR THAT NEVER TOUCHES THE RAW • Tone, colour, grain, halation and crop, with a live RGB histogram • Save as a new photo, or apply the edit to the original and revert it any time • Every edit is developed from the RAW, and the DNG underneath stays exactly as shot ALSO (promise I'm not yelling) • RAW Max: ProRAW at 48 MP on the main camera • HEIF and JPEG with eight Looks: Epic, Wasteland, Sodium, Postcard, Haze, Mood, Tempo and Sunday • A gallery that shows only the photos you took with barecam • Shoot from the lock screen, or with the volume buttons • On iPhone Duo, unfold for a live histogram and instrument panel beside the lens • Grid and level One price. No account, no subscription, no tracking. barecam makes no network calls, so your photos never leave your iPhone unless you share them. I hope it makes you fall in love with your camera again.
