AuraHDR Camera

AuraHDR Camera gives iPhone photographers advanced tools for capturing scenes that ordinary camera apps struggle with. Create detailed HDR images with up to 16-stop RAW exposure bracketing, achieve edge-to-edge sharpness with focus bracketing and automatic focus stacking, and shoot in Bayer RAW or Apple ProRAW—all from one powerful camera app.

WHAT MAKES AURAHDR DIFFERENT?

ADVANCED HDR CAMERA

AuraHDR’s proprietary AuraEngine tone mapping recovers detail in challenging lighting conditions. Each scene is analyzed automatically, while built-in tone controls let you fine-tune the result. For darker scenes, the Low Light preset helps produce cleaner photographs with improved detail.

1. 16-STOP EXPOSURE BRACKETING

Capture RAW or JPEG exposure brackets across a range of up to 16 stops for merging in your preferred HDR software.

• Capture up to seven bracketed exposures.
• Customize the number of exposures and interval between them.
• High Quality Low Light mode uses a lower ISO for cleaner brackets.
• Supports Bayer RAW and Apple ProRAW on compatible iPhones.

2. RAW FOCUS BRACKETING

Capture tack-sharp close-ups and landscapes with greater depth of field.

• Choose automatic or manual focus bracketing.
• Capture up to 100 bracketed images.
• Adjust the focus interval for different subjects.
• Capture in RAW or JPEG.
• Use the draggable magnifier and real-time focus peaking to identify areas of sharp focus.

In Auto mode, select the nearest focus point and let AuraHDR capture the sequence. In Manual mode, tap different areas of the frame to choose each focus position.

Import the frames into apps such as Affinity Photo or Luminar Neo to create images with edge-to-edge sharpness.

3. AUTOMATIC FOCUS STACKING CAMERA

Automatic Focus Stacking combines bracketed images inside AuraHDR and saves the completed result—no external stacking software required.

• Ideal for macro, product, and food photography.
• Select the nearest focus point and press the shutter.
• Both the bracketed sequence and focus-stacked image are saved.
• Designed for use with the iPhone’s main camera.

4. BAYER RAW AND APPLE PRORAW CAPTURE

Choose the RAW format that best suits your workflow.

• Capture minimally processed Bayer RAW files for maximum editing flexibility.
• Use Apple ProRAW for RAW flexibility with Apple’s computational processing.
• Capture Apple ProRAW at up to 48MP on supported Pro iPhones.
• Available formats and resolution depend on your iPhone model.

5. LONG EXPOSURE AND FRAME STACKING

Create smooth long exposures of flowing water, moving lights, and other moving subjects directly inside AuraHDR.

Frame Stacking captures a sequence of individual images for processing in compatible software. Blend them to simulate longer exposures or average them to reduce noise in static low-light scenes.

6. ADDITIONAL CAPABILITIES

Moon Mode captures four exposures to help photograph visible lunar detail.

A tripod is recommended for focus stacking, long exposures, frame stacking, and High Quality Low Light capture.
