Thanks for choosing PhotonCam. This version addressed the issue where some LOG-based LUTs won't have a correct look in Photo Extension.

Thanks for using PhotonCam. This version: - Fixed an issue where focus peaking would appear in portrait mode when it's configured to be enabled in Manual Focus only. Portrait mode doesn't support manual focus. - Addressed an issue where sometimes the edge pixels were semi-transparent for photos with Blurred Frame applied.

Thanks for using PhotonCam. This version: - Tapping the date/time in the image detail view will also open the photo info sheet. - Preserves favorite and tag info when exporting filters, so your organization carries over when sharing. - Supports personalizing file naming in the app settings. You can reorder or hide naming components. - Improvements to the cropping view in the editor: better performance and displays the photo with all adjustments applied. After leaving the cropping mode in the editor, the image will be reloaded with full size to reflect the cropping area. - Fixed an issue where a filter name containing "/" could cause problems. - Fixed an issue where Color Calibration wouldn't be saved when editing a filter from the filter detail page. - More bug fixes and improvements.

Thanks for using PhotonCam. This version: - Supports selecting input and output color space for your custom LUT. You can find this feature in the photo editor (Adjustments → LUT), Filter Management (multi-select filters and set them in batch), Batch Import filters page, filter editing page, and the camera app when creating a new filter with "+". - The input color space indicates the expected color space of the LUT. The app now has multiple built-in sRGB Gamma → LOG color space presets, letting you use LUTs developed for LOG-based images. Current supported list is: Apple Log, F-Log, F-Log2, L-Log, V-Log, C-Log, C-Log2, C-Log3, S-Log, S-Log2, S-Log3, N-Log, D-Log. - The output color space indicates the output color after applying the LUT. By default it is Display P3, but some LUTs may be in Rec.709, which has a different gamma from sRGB or Display P3. - When creating a new filter, the default filter name will be the Cube name if any cube is selected. - Fixed an issue where favorited filters won’t be displayed when editing the filter list. - Supported limiting the output captured / processed photo to 24MP max. - Supported sharing DNG files only for HEIF + RAW photos. Multiple-select photos in the gallery page to begin. - You can now shift the center of the contrast S-curve toward shadows or highlights, giving you finer control over where contrast is applied. - New LC0 filter. - More bug fixes and improvements.
