Serenity
Like with films, I prefer to chose before rather than in post. So enjoying the serenity that comes with the app. Would love to have an option for anamorphic lens, so I don’t need to change app if shooting with one.

Description
Whether you're an experienced photographer or a beginner, Camera1 will help you shoot in Black and White like no other app.
DEVELOP YOUR CREATIVITY
Learn to "see" in Black & White through Camera1 unique simultaneous contrast and exposure adjustments.

Excellent App
This is my favorite camera app. Absolutely fantastic.
Great App
Great shot taker. Love Zen Mode and the Golden Triangles screen grid setting.
Classic images
Reminds me of old photos by classic photographers I would stare at their images for hours, now I can make similar tonal pictures. Great app love it
Amazing but...
on an iPhone 8 Plus my settings are lost when I switch to a different app and then back. It would be great if these are preserved so I can use my phone like a regular film camera, always on the same settings unless I change it. Also, I’d like to use this for street photography but have no control over the shutter. Am I missing something? Edit (2018-5-5) - exposure compensation, contrast, and focus distance can be set to be preserved in settings. Would like to see: Minimum shutter speed - for sharp street images in lower light Focus peaking - to aid manual focussing
Professional features - convenient camera
I like being able to take beautiful & artistic images at the drop of a hat with this app.
👌🏼📷👌🏼
Excellent!!! 👌🏼📷👌🏼

Awesome app, very simple to use and get the black and white effects needed to make you and your environment look good!
