The new Leica Lux ‘app’ recreates the style of Leica cameras on iPhone

June 7 (Portaltic/EP) –

Leica has launched a new application called Leica LUX for iPhone devices that promises to recreate the particular style of its cameras, such as the bokeh effect and the availability of Noctilux and Summilux lenses.

The ‘app’, which can now be downloaded at App Store, offers a number of color settings and film presets similar to those found on your cameras. Among them, Classic, Contemporary, Black & White and Vivid.

The new application also reproduces several objectives of the brand. It is the case of Noctilux-M 50mm f/1.2, Summilux-M 28mm f/1.4 and Summilux-M 35mm f/1.4. Additionally, this service provides periodic software updates to introduce new target simulations.

Leica LUX draws on Leica’s own color science to offer the same color grading and film presets found in Leica cameras, as teased in the official Apple App Store.

Other options that can be configured are shutter speed, white balance, various focus options, exposure and RAW/ProRAW formats.
