iPhone
Shoot the look, not the edit. Film looks live in the viewfinder, manual M, S and A with Pro, the Film Lab with halation, mist and grain (Pro), and Camera Control support.
Citus Camera is a film camera for your iPhone. Pick a look, see it live in the viewfinder, and press the shutter. The photo that lands in your library is finished: straight out of camera, no editing after capture.
MADE BY A WORKING PHOTOGRAPHER
I built Citus alone, as a commercial photographer, because I wanted to choose the look before the shot instead of fixing it later.
28 LOOKS, LIVE
- The six Film Stock looks are measured from real film: rolls shot, scanned and characterised, so the viewfinder shows how that film behaves.
- The other 22 are handcrafted with the same method.
- 10 Citus looks, from cool to warm. Frost, Amber and Linen are free; the rest come with Pro.
- Three look packs of six, sold separately: Film Stock, Cinema and Mono.
- Set each look's strength and watch it change live.
THE FILM LAB (Pro)
- Halation, mist, softness, grain, vignette and fringe, rendered live in the viewfinder.
MANUAL CONTROL (Pro)
- M, S and A modes with shutter and ISO dials under your thumb.
- Aperture control on iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max.
ADJUST, INCLUDED FOR EVERYONE
- Exposure, white balance, contrast, tones, clarity and saturation.
- HSL and B&W mixers.
CAMERA CONTROL
- Zoom, exposure and looks from the button on the side, on iPhone 16 and later. The manual dials there need Pro.
RECIPES
- Every photo keeps its recipe: the look and every setting, saved inside the file.
- Open a recipe to shoot it again, or share it with a friend.
- One recipe slot without Pro, unlimited with Pro.
CAPTURE (Pro)
- 48 MP and ProRAW (DNG), on iPhones that support them.
TRY BEFORE YOU BUY
Every Pro tool and every look works live in the viewfinder, so you can see exactly what you would get. Pro is only asked for when you press the shutter.
CITUS PRO
One purchase, no subscription: all 10 Citus looks, the Film Lab, manual control, 48 MP and ProRAW, and unlimited recipes. Look packs are sold separately.
