Vintage aesthetic coming to an iPhone with VSCO's free app, offering film-style presets for instant photography enhancement prior to snapping shots
**Introducing VSCO Capture: A Revolutionary Camera App for iPhone Users**
VSCO, the renowned mobile editing platform, has unveiled a new offering – **VSCO Capture**, an innovative camera app designed to revolutionise the way users capture and edit photos on their iPhone devices.
Unlike traditional editing apps, VSCO Capture allows photographers to *apply VSCO’s signature presets and effects in real-time before taking photos or videos*, offering a preview of the final look directly through the viewfinder. This eliminates uncertainty about how filters will affect the image.
Key features and unique aspects include:
- **Live Presets Before Shooting:** Choose from over 50 VSCO iconic analog and film-inspired presets that apply instantly. The app shows how the final photo or video will look prior to pressing the shutter, making the creative process more intuitive.
- **Manual Camera Controls:** The app provides manual control over essential camera settings such as shutter speed, exposure, white balance, ISO, and focus. It supports shooting in JPEG, HEIC, RAW, and ProRAW formats (up to 48MP depending on the iPhone model), enhancing post-processing possibilities.
- **Real-Time Film Effects:** VSCO Capture includes Bloom and Halation effects, which simulate classic film aesthetics. Bloom softly diffuses bright areas for a misty look, while Halation adds a subtle glow around light points, recreating vintage film's characteristic light bleed. Both effects are fully customizable with intensity, size, and tint adjustments.
- **Filter Intensity Adjustment:** Users can fine-tune the strength of presets to make them lighter or more intense, allowing better control over the image’s mood and style.
- **Seamless Integration with the Main VSCO App:** Photos and videos captured in VSCO Capture automatically sync to the main VSCO app, where users can access VSCO’s comprehensive editing toolkit and share content across social media or VSCO profiles.
- **User-Friendly Interface:** Despite the range of advanced features, the interface remains straightforward and easy to navigate, enabling both photographers and hobbyists to shoot creatively without complex workflows.
VSCO Capture stands out by blending professional-level manual controls and advanced analog-inspired real-time filters into a dedicated camera app, enhancing creative control at the moment of capture rather than after. This approach is designed for users seeking to express their photographic vision with immediacy and style on iPhone devices.
VSCO Capture is now available worldwide on iOS. The app is a free download on the App Store for iOS devices, and was previously teased with a slow launch in Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand. With its unique blend of creative control and intuitive design, VSCO Capture is set to redefine mobile photography.
