Wow. Thank you all for your kind words about the Mark III preview! We couldn't have been happier with the response. We're continuing the momentum this week with a handful of small fixes and improvements while we're heads-down on the next big release. If you have any feedback, please let us know at support@lux.camera, or just hop in our Discord. Thank you for supporting Halide, and we can't wait to show you what's next.

At long last, we're excited to share a preview of Halide Mark III! Inside Halide, tap the "3" button to try out the new experience and see where things are headed. New features include: * HDR in Process Zero * Our film-simulation engine * Our first new look, "Chroma Noir" * Adjustable Aspect Ratios * Tone Editing * Shutter Priority and ISO Priority * New focal lengths in Process Zero That said, this is still just a preview, and Mark III work is still in progress. Designs are incomplete, we're still bringing features over from the old version of Halide, and you should expect plenty of bugs. Luckily, you can switch back to Mark II at any time if you find the experience too hot to handle. Why release it now? Even in its rough state, we could use your feedback. Hop into our Discord, or just email support@lux.camera, to let us know how to improve. It's taken a year to get to this point. With the hard parts of the rewrite done, we can't wait to show you even more cool new stuff in the months ahead! - Ben

This small update fixes some edge cases when capturing a photo from the lock screen. It also contains all the features in our last big update, iPhone 16 capture control! You can now quickly access EV and manual focus control with a few swipes. We know it can be frustrating to lose that perfect shot with a stray swipe. That's why we added a "Lock" option. Once you dial in your settings, set the capture control to the Lock to save yourself from goofing. Why launched with three capture control to make things faster and easier to navigate. EV and Manual Focus felt right for now, but if you want more, we'd love to know what! Let us know at @halideapp on Threads.
