2 Red Flags

A very big “NO” to tracking apps. Why does a photo app need to track its users. Looks like dishonest activity to me. A very big “NO” to subscriptions. That is the whole reason I abandoned all Adobe apps. I won’t buy it.

Won’t Let You Try Without Subscribing

App won’t let you demo anything unless you subscribe to automatically pay once the trial period is complete.

You charged me

I have used the trial and cancelled it right away the same day...and now you are charging me!! This is so dishonest!

So much potential!!

Great app with a ton more potential! I have used a lot of photo apps Halide, Camerapro, etc.. and find that I am most attracted to Firstlight however I want more control and options in an elegant multi-sensory interface. I have read reviews and it seems like you are open and wanting positive suggestions. So here are a few. Have the swipe and text follow the perspective, make a picture horizontal, your swipe actions are the same as you use vertical. Make swipe options haptic. actually make ae, ISO, and Shutter actions Haptic. Add real time perspective correction. Add a Fibonacci spiral, golden spiral, grid please. Add A dial with haptic feedback to digitally zoom. This would leave the swipe motions alone. Perhaps located where the album is located currently beside the shutter button? A way to adjust white balance would be useful. Ability to add and remove film overlays post picture taking. Ability to choose save location, partner with Adobe lightroom? Use the full 14-bit RAW data in real time when calculating exposure etc…. I hope you take these suggestions in the light they are given as helpful and not critical. If you need other real life Beta testers I would love to be on that list.

Almost perfect

Could we get the option to save only ProRaw? Not ProRaw+HEIC? There also seems to be a bug where the regular raw format is saved blurry/pixelated, as if the automatic post processing doesn’t execute or something.

Great love to see this feature in update

This is an exceptionally easy and versatile implementation of the iPhone’s camera. I would love to see user-customizable aspect ratings, or at least the addition of 7:6 and 65:24 Good app & no bugs that I’ve found!

Waste of money

Forces you to give all access permissions or will not work at all.

Ignore the subscription comments, Filmic embraces cash model

Having a decent collection of camera apps, I almost didn’t look at Firstlight by Filmic. I always read the reviews before I download (to pick up on incompatibilities, shortcomings) and was confused by the comments on a subscription model. I messaged Filmic, who replied promptly, advising they’d abandoned the subscription business model, replacing it with a full-version, no in-app purchases model. I’ve been using Filmic Pro for video for several years - all my “serious” stuff is shot with it and, after shifting into the Filmic paradigm, I find it easy and intuitive to use. I’ve just used Firstlight for a few minutes, but already like the Filmic approach and expect it will, shortly, become my default camera app, both for iPhone and iPad Pro. It’s rare that I get an app and really Iike it, right off the bat. If my early images are any indication, Firstlight is going to become and all-time favourite, just like Filmic Pro. I also like the company - attention to detail, quick response to questions, fastidious about maintaining their apps. I rarely give five stars, but compared to the other apps that I really like (Halide, VSCO, Manual, Pure), it’s at least a step or two above and at CDN$11, it’s a bargain.

Great photo app from the filmic crews

Love that app and simplicity. Would like it if their was more alignment between filmic pro and first light, Tool/function placement etc. Would it be possible to add a photo output option to device folder? instead of direct to Photos library? Great work

No more subscriptions!! Purchased!!

Thank you soooo much for listening!!! Love everything you’ve been doing and I’m happy to support. Great app! As always!
