Introducing Leica LUX, a continuation of Leica’s legendary optical engineering skills, where cutting-edge technology meets unparalleled imaging capabilities.
Leica LUX is more than just a camera app; it is a companion for those moments when your physical Leica camera isn’t within reach — or if you have yet to experience the pleasure of shooting with a Leica. Whether you’re capturing a spontaneous moment on the go or carefully composing a shot using manual controls, Leica LUX ensures that every photo reflects the dependability and authenticity that Leica is known for.
Leica LUX lets you simplify the photographic process and capture life’s moments with clarity.

Leica LUX enables you to step into the world of legendary Leica lenses. In Aperture Mode, iPhone photographers can capture images with digital replicas of various classic Leica lenses, such as the Summilux-M 28 f/1.4 ASPH and Noctilux-M 50 f/1.2 ASPH. Leveraging Leica’s proprietary image processing engine, these lens simulations let you experience the distinctive look and beautiful bokeh that Leica lenses are known for. Now, your iPhone can capture images with the unique aesthetic of Leica’s legendary M-lenses — with new lenses being added to Leica LUX every month.

In the tradition of fine German engineering, Leica LUX builds on Leica’s own color science to offer the same color grading and film presets found in Leica cameras, with options like Leica Classic, Leica Contemporary, and Leica Black & White.

Ratings and Reviews
Like the color effects, hate the price.
I really like Leica color but $70 a year for ( basically) color looks seems extreme. Almost all apps have gone insane. Remember when an app like this would be 99 cents, it was yours,and they'd update it for years before asking for a upgrade fee?
Yes, this app does color well and yes it simulates focal lengths ( lenses) pretty well but I just can't get over how little they're giving for the price. Oh wait, it's a " Leica" branded product....but wait..it's just an iPhone...hmmmmm
The Price of Bliss
Now 70 and retired, Leica entered my life as a photojournalist at age 15 (good to have family in graphic arts). I've sold the farm many times in my life to get the "next-to-latest" Leica gear that could get me to the next level. A few years ago I discovered the Q, now have a Q2. It was worth the wait and the thousands. Smartphone photography, while ideal for capturing moments when you have nothing else to shoot with (the best camera is the one you have ready to use at the moment the moment arrives), but despite mind blowing technology advances, still produce mostly unremarkable images. That fine line between a great composition of a great subject or scene and a true work of art is subtle. This app bridges that undefinable void. Open the app, leave the aperture wide open, turn the Look to Leica Vivid, choose a wide lens so you can immerse your senses in the image, focus on the key subject and tap. Enlarge on the phone and absorb the beautifully perfect rendition, not of what you see, but of what you were envisioning in your mind. Life captured as art. Yes, the sparkly new app is buggy. Yes, it costs a king's ransom to lease (you never "own" it). But wow does it ever reward with satisfaction only bested by using the real thing. For capturing head turning images for immediate sharing with others, it simply makes you feel great. Isn't that what photography is all about?
Excellent addition to the Leica World
I am teaching an Environmental Photography college class at SJSU soon, and I am planning on having all students use their iPhone and this app. Perfect tool to understand aperture, shutter speed, depth of field, focal length,… without having them to buy a “bulky” camera (it is a quote from one of the student!). On my iPhone 15 Pro Max the results are in line (visually) with my own Leica M11 and the Summilux lenses. The big difference is when you zoom in, huge gap in resolution and overall definition. But, that is an iPhone limitation. Thanks Leica for bringing innovative photography tools to us, and the youngest photographers.
