Halide Mark II - Pro Camera
RAW, Macro & Manual + Zero AI
This thoughtfully designed pro-level camera app doesn’t just help you take better photos. Packed with exclusive visualisation tools and smart post-processing prowess, it will help compose the best shot before you snap the shutter.
What we love: How Halide Mark II provides so much manual control without cluttering your frame. Its elegant interface brings up the tools you need (focus loupe, colour-coded zebra striping), exactly when you need them.
Quick tip: Want to experiment with unprocessed raw images (for complete editing freedom) without sacrificing iPhone’s Deep Fusion and Smart HDR image processing? Halide Mark II captures both simultaneously. The Instant RAW feature lets you view and share raw images without having to process them.
Meet the creator: Lux Optics is a team of three friends – Rebecca Slatkin, Ben Sandofsky and Sebastiaan de With – brought together by a passion for photography and great apps. They wanted to build the app to behave like a “real” camera, which means Halide Mark II sends no information to the developer.
