Cinema P3 Camera has an intuitive user interface that lets you switch between Photo, Video and Creative modes easily.
View the information you need with the simple HUD display — Resolution, Frame Rate, Color, Focus Mode, White Balance, ISO and Shutter Speed.
Choose the on-screen controls you use most with a customizable interface.
Quickly configure camera settings such as Exposure, White Balance and Focus Modes using the Settings menu.
Use automatic or precise manual control over ISO, Shutter Speed, Exposure, Focus and Zoom.
Manually configure non-standard frame rates and resolutions supported by your device or select from presets.
Use advanced tools for real time image analysis and processing to optimize the image on-device and then record it using P3 Color, Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) and Full Range Video.
Cinema P3 Camera uses Metal to harness the advanced graphics capabilities of your iOS device and deliver superior image quality compared to other camera Apps.
If you're making Cinematic video, you need P3 color.
The latest iPhones and iPads* have wide color P3 displays with incredible color and brightness — but only use it for photographic images.
The Cinema P3 Camera gives you full access to the abilities your device for video.
The result is stunningly realistic video with up to 25% more color than standard video. Grass is greener. Skies are bluer. Bright vivid colors can now be captured and recorded accurately.
The cameras in the latest iPhones and iPads* are capable of capturing High Dynamic Range (HDR) video.
Cinema P3 Camera lets you store your video using using Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) and Full Range Video, which stores more detail and preserves the HDR brightness information in your image.
The result is dynamic, life like video.
Other camera Apps don't do this. They use tone mapping to convert HDR to Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) and lose contrast.
Cinema P3 Camera includes a creative mode that processes the image from the camera sensor to achieve beautiful Cinematic video.
Processing image data from the camera sensor before it is saved to disk increases image quality compared with adjustments made later by post processing.
This Cinematic Processing has been carefully designed for a variety of scene lighting conditions.
For example, you can boost shadow detail on a bright sunny day, or increase saturation on a cloudy day.
Cinema P3 allows full control over all camera settings such as white balance, temperature and tint, exposure, ISO, shutter speed, shutter angle and focus.
The method of control is determined by setting one of the three exposure modes: Center, Spot and Manual.
Choose 'Center' and the camera will set exposure automatically for the centre of the image. Exposure can be adjusted using a Bias slider.
Choose 'Spot' and the camera will set exposure at a specific spot on screen. Drag the exposure spot to set its position. Tap it to lock the exposure.
Choose 'Manual' for full manual control over exposure settings.
Zoom into video using a two finger pinch gesture or use the zoom slider for precise single finger control.
Adjust the zoom speed in settings for smooth zoom transitions.
For the highest image quality, disable software zoom to only allow zooming when it can be achieved using the image sensor. For example when shooting at 1080p.
Let the camera do the work using Continuous Automatic White Balance (AWBc).
Set white balance manually to a specific value (WB lock) using Temperature and Tint sliders or use Presets.
White balance can also be set automatically using a grey card and Gray World Calibration.
Continuous Automatic Focus, Automatic Focus and Face Detection mode are supported.
A manual focus slider enables fine control over focus from macro to infinity.
The Focus Target for automatic focussing can be moved or set by tapping on the screen.
Focus can be locked (disabling automatic focus) by tapping on the Focus Target.
Focus peaking highlights the edges of in focus objects to ensure accurate focussing.
A focus loupe assists manual focussing by magnifying the image at the focus target.
Drag the focus loupe to move its position.
Aspect Ratio Guides and Grids can be displayed to assist scene composition.
6 powerful scopes provide real time analysis for optimum image quality.
Luminance, RGB Parade, RGB Overlay and Histogram scopes assist setting exposure.
XY Colorspace and Chroma Vectorscope assist with color gamut and white balance.
Get the perfect exposure using Zebras.
Animated stripes highlight parts of an image where detail is lost through the saturation of Red, Green or Blue channels.
Use the P3 button to see which parts of the image use P3 color. Standard gamut colors are displayed as shades of grey.
See why you need P3 color in your video.
Ensure you have the right highlight and shadow detail in your image using color analysis.
Each band represents a 7.5% change from minimum to maximum brightness.
For users with 1.3x anamorphic lenses, Anamorphic Desqueeze will ensure your image is displayed with the correct aspect ratio.
This is true for video preview, recording and playback.
Capture more information from your Camera sensor while recording video.
Choose from a wide selection of creative options to automatically adjust highlight and shadow detail, contrast and saturation, to achieve truly Cinematic video.
