Leica LUX is a professional camera app that brings the iconic Leica Look – and its signature color, style, and feel – to your iPhone. Developed in-house by Leica, it gives you the unique visual character of Leica cameras in a powerful mobile experience.
FLEXIBLE PHOTOGRAPHY
Leica LUX simplifies the photographic process to capture life's moments with clarity. Whether you're shooting landscapes, street scenes, or intimate portraits, Leica LUX offers countless creative opportunities. Photographers of every skill level can craft masterpieces, using automatic mode for spontaneous snapshots or diving into the manual settings to tweak every detail.
LENS SIMULATIONS
Stunning simulations of legendary Leica lenses bring prestige and personality to your mobile photography. Each lens has a distinct visual style, from the Summilux-M 28mm f/1.4 ASPH to the Noctilux-M 50mm f/1.2 ASPH, with more lens options coming soon. The custom software engine also creates authentic-looking bokeh directly on your iPhone.
ICONIC LEICA LOOKS
Leica LUX was developed in accordance with the acclaimed color science of Leica, offering the same color corrections and film presets as found in Leica cameras. These Leica Looks include Leica Classic, Leica Contemporary, Leica Black & White, and Leica Vivid. More than 15 looks are currently available, giving your images rich textures, emotional nuance, and inimitable drama.
AUTOMATIC AND MANUAL CONTROL
Leica LUX allows you to expand your creativity, choosing between an intuitive automatic mode or full-fledged manual control. Manual photographers can adjust the exposure compensation, shutter speed, ISO, white balance, focus mode, RAW output, and more.

Just be honest about the price!

Download, setup, signin, now pay us? Why not just be upfront that I can’t use this app without paying you? (And we all know a free trial will result in me forgetting to cancel so I’ll be eating a year sub)Are your cameras this manipulative?
Developer Response
Hi there! Leica LUX works without a subscription. Plus, you get full access to all LUX PRO features for your first 36 photos, no subscription needed.
App is good, monetization is not
Mr. Williamus
You can never own this app. If you plan on using this app for 3 years, then the app will cost you $300. 5 years? $500. And if you bought the $300 Leica grip, it does not even include the full version on this app. The app is good, but because it is carefully locking away the interesting features behind a paywall, it is designed to sell you the subscription. Therefore it is nothing but a Trojan horse designed to extract every dollar clients may be willing to pay. Its price has nothing to do with real value or real development costs.

This is a great Leica tool. Turn your iphone into a brilliantly conceived camera - that once you get a “grip” on the “grip” - you will enjoy this hand-extension. The Lux App is superb. Well done Leica. As always, you create have created a work of art - to allow us to make, works of art. Well done. TJ
