Professional 16mm, 8mm vintage film camera for filmmakers and more
Super 16 is a professional video camera application that allows you to create footage with real-time processing as vintage 16mm and 8mm film cameras do. This application provides extensive functionality for manual control, which can be useful for videographers and filmmakers. With Super 16, you can equally well shoot both atmospheric home footage (in 16mm or 8mm film style), reflecting your best moments, and professional cinematic scenes, or just take photos with a touch of old.
Powerful color adjustment
The application provides a set of >70 filters containing profiles of popular vintage Kodak Vision3 films, black-and-white filters and filters for cinema post-processing. You also have the option of manually preprocess color by changing the temperature, tint, saturation and color correction curve. You can track all changes in the distribution of colors in a frame using a color histogram.
Physical film emulation
The application allows you to emulate such aspects of analog film shooting as stains and scratches, frame shake (gate weave), flicker, grain, uneven emulsion coating etc. You can even choose overscanned film mode to see edges and film strip with holes, and apply film burn at any time you want.
Professional shooting options
Super 16 allows you to change the focus and exposure settings, adjust the zoom for better shooting of various scenes. Camera shoots at authentic 24fps that creates movie effect. All parameters (including processing features) can be changed during the recording.
Convenience of use
You can create your own presets based on the available processing options. This allows you to immediately use the camera in the configuration you need, without having to re-configure. It is also possible to process existing video files with built-in video editor.

Once I found this camera app, it immediately became a must have go-to app for shooting video or just simple photos. Its brilliant in its creative freedom, just tweak the huge variety of specific settings to settings to either create your own LUT or recreate a particular film’s look & style that you enjoy. The paid subscription grants access to everything & never gets boring, but even if you cant swing the subscription, the free version still has great features. I absolutely adore this app to where I’d even ambassador for it, i believe in it so much.
Best App for Film looks! Some Suggestions
biggestbeef_
I love this app so much. The only thing is that I can’t use the 2:39.1 scope with 4k for some reason, it makes the app crash, or it doesn’t capture the video. it can do photos, but not video. i’m using an iphone 14 pro. if this bug could be fixed, this app would be absolutely perfect. note: i also bought the paid version of this so I could make a film for school, and if this is fixed I’d love to make future films with 2:39.1 in 4k!
Bugs
aharjo09
The app seems great in that the video effects and tools are useful, easy to use, and look great…unfortunately in my case there are some kind of bugs that are preventing proper saving of the videos, which makes the rest of the features pointless. Specifically, this happened with videos that I had pre-recorded and edited inside the app. When I saved the videos it said they were saved to the gallery, but were actually nowhere to be found—either within the app or on my phone. Strangely, it did work one time, but all subsequent attempts failed (the “saved” video disappeared). It seemed to successfully record and save video and photos recorded within the app.
Pause button pleeeease

Hi, Dmitry, thanks for this powerful app!However my friend has Google Pixel and there is pause button. When I installed app in my iphone I haven’t found one. At the same moment apps like videocam+, promovierecorder, pausecam have this feature.Will you be able to add it in future releases?
Super 16 | 16mm Film Camera
1.2.7
- Now you can import your own custom filters (LUTs) from DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, 3D LUT Creator and others for free! Scroll up to “+” in the filter bar and choose a file to import. Supported formats: .cube, .3dl, .vlt, .csp. Many color spaces are available
- Presets now support custom filters
- Custom filters in Community! Now you can explore presets with custom filters from other users and publish your own. Note: you can preview such presets as usual with a long press
- .s16 files now support custom filters too — you can export/import custom filter presets as .s16 files
- New adjustments: lens distortion (2 sliders for center and edges) — these two parameters can reproduce the image of most well-known camera lenses. The parameters also support extreme distortion values, such as fisheye. (Maybe someone will make a skateboard video with this effect? Hehe)
- New adjustments: lens swirl — with this effect, you can get a picture similar to Helios 44-2 lenses with their famous “swirly bokeh”. Although this is not actual bokeh, the image will look similar
- New adjustments: filter intensity — it automatically resets to 1.0 (100%) when the user manually swipes to another filter
- You can now adjust the size of buttons in the app (Settings → Interface scale) — this makes it easier to operate the camera in real-world shooting conditions, especially when quick and precise control is needed
- Camera HDR support: On, Off, Auto

- The app no longer requires full access to your photo library — you can now manually choose which photos to share with the app
