CineCam: Manual Cinema Camera

CineCam turns your Android phone into a manual cinema camera. It starts automatic, and the moment you touch a value it is yours: lens, frame rate, shutter angle, ISO, white balance and tint each sit on a dial, right on the picture.

Built for videographers, filmmakers and content creators who need a pro video camera they can trust on a shoot.

MANUAL CAMERA CONTROL
• Shutter angle or shutter speed, ISO, white balance in kelvin, tint and exposure compensation
• Manual focus and zoom with smooth A-B pulls
• Tap to focus and expose; long-press for AE/AF lock
• Constant frame rate recording, including the high-speed modes your sensor has
• Aspect ratios from 1:1 to 2.40:1, and anamorphic desqueeze from 1.25x to 2x

LOG, HDR AND 10-BIT VIDEO
• 27 tone curves: Log, HLG and PQ, with gamut choice and a live curve graph
• 10-bit HEVC where the phone supports it, AVC, and APV on phones that encode it
• Bitrate, bitrate mode and keyframe interval are yours to set
• Formats your phone does not declare are shown in red, never hidden — you can still try them

LOOKS AND LUTS
• 26 built-in looks on a quick look wheel
• Import your own .cube LUT files
• Monitor a look only, or record it into the clip
• LUT Lab builds a technical LUT for the Log curve you shot, ready for your color grade

EXPOSURE AND FOCUS TOOLS
• RGB histogram, waveform, RGB parade and vectorscope
• Zebra, false color and focus peaking
• Grids, frame lines, safe areas and a horizon level you can calibrate
• Scopes read the image before the look, so they tell the truth about the recording

PROFESSIONAL AUDIO
• Internal, wired, USB and Bluetooth microphones
• Gain, limiter, audio meters and headphone monitoring
• A broadcast WAV file (BWF) recorded beside the clip
• LTC timecode in from an audio channel for multi-camera shoots

READY FOR THE EDIT
• Cinema clip names with reel and clip numbers, like A001C003
• Slate with scene, shot and take; good-take marks and notes
• Timecode track in every file
• MP4 or MOV, saved to internal storage, SD card or a USB drive
• Files stay playable at every moment: an interrupted take is finished the next time you open the app

MADE FOR THE SHOOT
• Landscape and portrait layouts
• Bluetooth remotes, gimbal and game-pad buttons: teach any button an action
• Presets for a whole camera setup
• Searchable settings, each with a plain explanation
• Haptics and camera sounds that never land in your take

YOUR FOOTAGE STAYS YOURS
Clips, pictures and sound are saved on your phone and are never uploaded by CineCam. There is no account and no advertising. Anonymous usage statistics and crash reports help us fix problems, and you can switch them off in Settings.

A NOTE ON PHONES
What a phone can record depends on its camera and its encoder. CineCam shows exactly what your phone declares in a capability report, and lets you try the rest. Record a short test before a shoot that matters.
