M-Kamera - 35mm film camera

M-Kamera turns your iPhone into a 35mm analog film camera with full manual controls simulating timeless rangefinder experience.

Advance the film. Set exposure. Align the focusing patch. Wait for the decisive moment and capture it. Advance the frame, rinse and repeat, until you finish the roll. Develop it to relive the captured moments later at the light table. Anticipation is part of the experience!

Not a filter. Not a preset. M-Kamera simulates the complete image-making process - from physically accurate 35mm and 50mm full-frame lens rendering to physics within the film simulating growth of individual film grains, halation, colors, and response of the film to different lighting. M-Kamera is as much about the process as it is about final results - that full-frame analogue film look we all like and miss in a world of perfect digital photographs. It's not a camera, it's a simulator.

THE RANGEFINDER EXPERIENCE

You may use M-Kamera as a point-and-shoot, but it's soul is your full control including that feel when you snap coincidence rangefinder patch to alignment.

Or scale focus and use sunny f/16 in hardcore mode like on a real camera. Haptic and acoustic feedback included.

Choice is yours, convenience or full control and deliberation:

- Full Manual for aperture, shutter speed, and rangefinder focus. Aided with center-weighted light meter for full creative control

- Automatic exposure with aperture or shutter priority when speed matters.

- Point & Shoot Mode for spontaneous moments

- Hardcore Mode: no meter, no assistance - just Sunny 16

- 35mm or 50mm lens perspective. With physically realistic bokeh for chosen aperture and subject distance

PHYSICS, NOT PRESETS

- Physics-based depth of field and bokeh determined by aperture and subject distance

- Cat's-eye highlights, aperture-blade shapes, and lens vignetting are all simulated for aperture you choose at the time of capture

- Individual simulated film grain growth process - not a texture overlay. Responds realistically to changes in lighting within and between the frames

- Subtle glow and halation effects to make this film rendering ever more realistic

- Exposure-dependent color shifts and black-and-white rendering. Deliberately under or over expose to get that "pulled" or "pushed" look

- Use color filters for black and white photography - red for dramatic skies or yellow for smooth portraits

- Slow shutter is really slow - realistic handshake when available light is scarce, so hold your camera steady!

- Final image defined by settings you choose when you pull the trigger.

SHOOT LIKE IT COSTS SOMETHING

Load black-and-white, color negative, or slide film. ISO is fixed. Aperture and shutter speed have real limits.

And yes, you can ruin the frame if the settings YOU choose are wrong. And you only learn it when you develop the roll. Just like the real thing!

No instant preview, no instant gratification, just you and decisive moment to focus on whether in full manual or in auto mode. Make every frame count!

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

All processing runs on your iPhone using Metal and CoreML. M-Kamera does not collect your data or upload photographs anywhere unless you choose to keep them safe in your iCloud backup which only you can access anyway.

BROAD COMPATIBILITY

M-Kamera requires live depth source either from dual camera setup or LiDAR (recommended), and a reasonably fast processor to run advanced physical simulations but runs on most recent iPhones. Dual camera iPhones from 12 and up are supported, although iPhone 14 Pro or later are recommended for optimal experience and full quality.

CHOOSE HOW TO CONTINUE

Download M-Kamera free. Try it with the three rolls which come loaded, and then either pay per roll for full experience, buy M-Kamera outright or get optional subscription for unlimited film.

Made in Germany with love to film.
