"Darkr actually taught us how to frame pictures better"
- AppleInsider


Have you ever dreamt of trying an old darkroom, but don't have the equipment nor the time?

Now you can, and without getting wet.


DARKROOM
In a fun and intuitive way you will pick the strip that has the best time and contrast.
And just like a real darkroom, you can make parts of the image brighter and darker by blocking or adding more light to the image.

You will be presented in a very easy way with lots of tutorials on how to use the tools.

The images will only be in black and white (but you may tone them).


DARKROOM FEATURES
+ Develop either your images from your camera-roll or taken by the Large-Format camera
+ Only Black & White
+ Stripes - As in a real darkroom you'll have to find the best strip. It will be challenging, fun and very powerful
+ Crop / Rotate - Both crop and rotate the image in the same tool
+ Dodge - Make a selected part of the image brighter.
+ Burn - Make a selected part of the image darker
+ Blur - Enhance the background with some beautiful blurriness.
+ Tone - Tone the images with various strength. The toners that can be used are Selenium, Cyanotype and Sepia.
+ Layers - You can add as many effects as you want. Each effect will be treated as a layer that can be edited, deleted and changed its visibility.
+ Zoom - You can zoom the image ten times. This will make it really easy to make the detailed work.
+ OpenGL - Darkr uses OpenGL, the drawing is fast and very fluid.


CAMERA
By shooting with a large-format camera where the image is upside-down you will actually get more control over the image.
The camera is only manual and back in the old days you could not even zoom with the camera, you had to walk.

You will be forced to slow down the process and by doing so, your photographs will be so much better.

At first it may feel a bit odd to look at the upside-down image and it can even be a bit challanging to know if you should move the camera to the left or right when framing the image.
Sometimes you will even laugh at yourself, but the more you use it, the less you will even have to think about it.


MORE CAMERA-MODELS
Darkr has now added two more camera-models.
+ Medium-format which will produce a square image and just as the large-format camera it is manual.
+ Small-format which is a real basic point and shoot camera where you pretty much only shoot at what you see. Nothing to set up with, nor zoom.


CAMERA FEATURES
+ Manual - Just as in a real old analog camera, it is only manual
+ Shutter / ISO - You will set these individually
+ Focus - With a beautiful crafted loupe, you will get full control over the sharpness
+ Tilt / Shift - Just as a large-format camera you will be able to straight up any lines
+ 4x5" - The negative's size will be in the 4x5-ratio as the most popular large-format camera does


SHARE
You can naturally share both the negatives and prints.
You can optimize the resolution to lots of social media's sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter

Superbe, mais manque le choix de papier et la possibilité de développer les négatifs couleurs

Super appli, pour le noir et blanc c’est vraiment parfait ! J’ai ma propre chambre noire et je développe mes propre photos, les temps sont différents de lorsqu’on travaille en réel, mais les rendus sont superbes. J’adore la possibilité de choix de pellicule, mais quel dommage que l’on ne puisse pas choisir le papier ...
De plus, une mise à jour avec le choix de pellicules couleurs (portra400, ectar100, etc..) serai vraiment parfaite, car lorsque je scan les négatifs couleurs j’aimerai pouvoir les développer directement via cette application! C’est la seule raison pour laquelle je ne met pas 5 étoiles !

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your hones review. I write in English since I don't speak French :)

Do you want to develop the image as colored images or scan them and convert them into black & white images?
I mean since portra400 etc are colored film.
You can contact me through the app :)

Fantastique !

Le seul regret ... on ne peut travailler les appareils en mode couleur (!) pourtant on pourrait utiliser l’ergonomie de la prise de vue en mode « chambre » pour faire de belles images d’archi en couleur. Sinon vraiment bien.

Le tirage à l’ancienne comme si vous y étiez !

Bravo au développeur pour cette appli intelligente et pédagogique à la fois. Félicitations pour les tutoriels qui sont tellement dans l’esprit de cet art de l’interprétation du réel qu’est la photographie en N&B. Un bel hommage aux grands photographes du siècle dernier, qui donne envie de les rejoindre, et bien du plaisir à s’y essayer !
A consommer sans hésitation ni modération, en n’hésitant pas à profiter de l’intégralité des options payantes : it’s worth for money ;)
