Halide Mark II Update Brings Powerful Camera Control to iPhone 16
Good news for photography enthusiasts! The popular Halide Mark II camera app has just rolled out an exciting update for iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro users. With the new Camera Control feature, you can quickly access essential settings like exposure value (EV) and manual focus with just a few swipes, making it easier than ever to capture the perfect shot.
What’s New in the Update?
The standout feature of this update is the Camera Control button, which lets you effortlessly adjust key settings like EV and manual focus. These controls make a big difference when you want more precision while shooting—whether you’re going for that perfect exposure or nailing focus in tricky lighting.
Another great addition is the new "Lock" option. If you’ve ever accidentally changed your settings while trying to capture the moment, you know how frustrating it can be. Halide’s new Lock function prevents accidental input, so once you’ve dialed in your ideal settings, you can be confident they’ll stay in place while you shoot.
A Simplified Experience
While the new update focuses on three key control options—EV, manual focus, and Lock—Halide’s team designed it that way for a reason. They wanted to streamline the user experience, making it faster and easier to navigate. As the Halide team says, “fewer options make things faster and easier,” and they chose EV and Manual Focus because they felt just right for now. But they’re always open to feedback, so if you’re craving more control options, they’d love to hear from you!
Why Halide Stands Out
Halide Mark II has always been known for giving users the power to take control of their photography. Whether you're a fan of minimal, film-like Process Zero shots or prefer Apple's image processing for HEIC / JPG and ProRAW, Halide has you covered. Their ProRAW support is one of the best in the industry, giving you the flexibility to choose between 12-bit and 10-bit ProRAW files and customize your megapixel options to strike the perfect balance between file size and editing latitude. Plus, with the ability to switch to native RAW for greater detail and speed, Halide continues to be the go-to app for photographers looking for professional-grade tools in their pocket.
So, whether you're an iPhone 16 user or just a fan of mobile photography, this latest update to Halide Mark II is sure to take your shots to the next level.
