View color and black-and-white negatives as an approximate positive image in real time. No capture, import, account, or upload.
Film Inverter is a live viewing tool for photographic negatives.
Place one film frame in front of an even backlight and align it with the on-screen guide. The app inverts the camera preview into an approximate positive image, helping you quickly inspect composition, people, and color without taking a photo.
Features:
• Live color-negative and black-and-white-negative preview
• Guides for 35mm, half-frame, XPan, 6×6, 6×7, 6×12, and 6×17 formats
• Portrait and landscape guide orientation
• Camera zoom choices supported by your iPhone
• Real-time processing entirely on device
• No account, ads, subscription, capture, import, or upload
Film Inverter is designed for quick viewing and composition reference. It does not replace a dedicated film scanner or final color grading. Results vary with the light source, film stock, exposure, and display.
