Manual RAW DNG Camera
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
iPhone
A camera app for folks who want more manual control, real DNG/RAW files, and fewer computational decisions made for them.
Calotype is a simple RAW camera for photographers who want a cleaner path from lens to file.
Your iPhone already has a very capable camera. It also makes a lot of decisions before you ever see the photo. Calotype keeps things quieter.
On supported back cameras, Calotype saves real RAW DNG files that you can take into the editor of your choice. No accounts, no cloud library, no extra processing layer.
Manual controls are built around the camera you are actually using. Shutter speed follows the sensor’s real format limits, with ISO, focus, white balance, exposure offset, and focus peaking close at hand.
You also get interval shooting for timelapses and hands-free captures, exposure bracketing for tricky light, and a simple in-app gallery for reviewing, sharing, and deleting recent shots.
Calotype is made by a photographer, for the moments when you want the phone to feel a little more like a camera.
