Lampa

A film-look camera for iPhone with no HDR or AI

iPhoneiPad4.7354 ratingsFree to start

The verdict

Film and 2000s digicam color profiles replace Smart HDR in Lampa, which develops each shot from RAW the moment you take it. The look is finished straight out of the camera, and it shoots 4K video at 60fps with the same profiles and grain. Membership costs $4.99 a month or $59.99 once, steep next to LibreCam's $5.99 Pro, so start with the free download.
