Frames Mac is the companion app for analog photographers who want their scanned negatives to carry the full shooting information. After developing and scanning your film, use Frames Mac to add the metadata captured on your iPhone directly to your JPEG, TIFF, or DNG scans.
Every detail (camera, lens, film stock, shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation, and location) becomes part of the image file. Your Lightroom library, Apple Photos, and any EXIF-compatible software will display your analog photography metadata just like a digital camera would.
Perfect for 35mm, medium format, and large format film shooters, Frames Mac ensures your analog photography records remain complete, accurate, and ready to use. No more spreadsheets, no more handwritten notes. Just a clear, consistent record attached to every scan.
