LateNiteSoft Unveil Photon: Redefining The Approach To Capture Photos On Iphone
If you happen to be an iPhone enthusiast with a passion for photography, you probably have fond memories of Camera+. This application was among the most widely used tools on the iPhone, enabling users to capture photos with advanced manual settings. Presently, LateNiteSoft, the same company behind Camera+, has returned with Photon, a brand-new application designed for professional photographers, providing them with a similar set of powerful photography features.
The app creators are placing their bets on the simple user interface and wide-ranging format compatibility to allure users. Right from the start, the application allows you to capture images in automatic mode, while also granting convenient access to settings for fine-tuning focus, shutter speed, ISO (sensitivity to light), and white balance (to modify the warmth or coolness of your image).Within the primary user interface, you can swiftly reach buttons to change the image format, photo resolution, flash settings, and selection between lenses such as wide, ultra-wide, telephoto, and selfie.
Above the viewfinder, there exists a flash control option on the left, offering modes like automatic, switchon, switch off, and torch. Towards the top-right corner, users have access to a histogram – a graphical representation depicting various light tones present in the photograph.
Every manual control, including focus, shutter speed, ISO, and white balance, can be finely adjusted using sliders to modify the parameters. Additionally, the screen will display numerical values, such as degrees Kelvin for white balance and the percentage of the camera’s maximum focus distance.Out of the box, the camera provides a 3 x 3 grid, a valuable tool for adhering to the ‘rule of thirds,’ which involves positioning the subject in a manner that leaves two-thirds of the frame open.
App subscription charges for advanced features
Users have the option to freely download the app and utilize its auto mode shooting capabilities. However, access to the professional features requires a subscription, priced at $3.99 per month or $19.99 per year. For a limited period, the company is also providing a lifetime subscription option at $39.99. Presently, the app developers are additionally offering a seven-day trial period for interested users.
The app will directly enter the competition with existing players such as the widely-used Halide app, which provides a comparatively more affordable subscription plan at $2.99 per month and $11.99 per year.
The application is compatible with JPEG, HEIF, True RAW, and ProRAW formats, giving users the option to store a combination of JPEG/HEIF alongside RAW files. Furthermore, users can conveniently review all the photos taken during a session within the app itself, without the need to exit, and effortlessly delete the ones they wish to discard.
