Reviews: What People Think About Leica LUX - Pro Manual Camera
Sethreissig
Rating: 5/5
As a professional cinematographer (and Leica owner), this is great. The lens emulations are spot on 90% of the time considering its using a supremely small sensor and lens to create these images. The bokeh could use some work sometimes, especially on lenses like the 50 1.2, but as an owner of the Sony 50 1.2GM i understand its a very hard look to emulate. Sometimes it unfocuses things that are on the same focal plane as the subject which essentially ruins the photo. That’s why I prefer the 35 lux or 28 lux for scenes where focus might be tough to distinguish. As a hiker this is great though, it eliminates my need to bring a mirrorless camera with me, and also gives me multiple lens options instead of just one zoom lens or one prime. I hope improvements continue to be made in terms of the bokeh/unfocusing things that should be focused, but I’m so impressed with this app that I can’t even use that as a reason to give this 4 stars because the look of a fast 50 is so hard to emulate

As far as I can tell this app does two things, and you can only choose one of the two features while taking photos: you can either (1) run a simulation of the field of view and out of focus blur you might get from a full frame lens, and to me this feature does work better than Apple’s portrait mode. They call this “A” mode but you are not controlling exposure with the aperture, just the simulated bokeh. Or you can have an exposure compensation dial. They call this “P” mode. That’s it. I sure wish you could have both controls at once but you can’t. I have always wanted a decent uncluttered camera app with an exposure comp dial, so this could have become my new camera app, except that there’s a monthly subscription fee! Argh. No thanks. The editing ability is very limited, they have a handful of color and black and white “looks” (filters), most of which are tasteful and usable, and definitely different from the options apple gives you, and you can adjust the simulated bokeh, but that’s about it.

Long time photographer with a degree in photography. Been using the app for the last week while traveling Europe. It definitively takes the iPhone camera to a completely different level. I am creating images that would not be possible without. I am a long time 35mm Contax G2 user and this app has also helped me to “pre-compose” shots using my phone giving a reasonable sense of the final product on film with regards to depth of field and similar. Highly recommend. Your photos will absolutely go to another level. Follow up: Shortly after writing this review I bought a Q2 Monochrom. Incredible camera! One suggestion though…. When someone spends $7K on a camera and gear, you shouldn’t require them to subscribe to your app. Just a thought.
