Native Camera

Take full control of your mobile filmmaking with Native Camera. This professional camera app serves enthusiasts and professionals who want cleaner video and precise manual control. By reducing dependence on heavy default processing from phone manufacturers, Native Camera helps you capture sharper, more natural-looking footage.

Whether you shoot cinematic 10-bit HLG HDR videos or simple 8-bit clips, Native Camera gives you the tools needed to control exposure, detail, color, and sound.

Shoot Professional 10-Bit HLG HDR Video

Record in stunning 10-bit HLG HDR for expanded dynamic range and vibrant colors. HDR capture preserves more detail in highlights and shadows, making it ideal for landscapes, sunsets, city scenes, and challenging lighting. You can also shoot standard 8-bit SDR when you need maximum compatibility.

Control Quality With Custom High Bitrates

Default camera settings often compress video too aggressively. Native Camera lets you control bitrate settings and record at higher quality for cleaner footage and smoother post-production editing. You retain more detail and reduce compression artifacts in every shot.

Brighten Low-Light Shots With Boosted ISO

Dark viewfinders and noisy night footage can ruin an otherwise great shot. The custom Boosted ISO mode brightens your preview and helps you capture cleaner low-light video. Night streets, concerts, indoor events, and dim interiors become easier to shoot with confidence.

Adjust Every Important Manual Setting

You can quickly adjust exposure, ISO, focus, white balance, and stabilization modes from a clean, modern, single-page interface. Manual controls respond immediately, allowing you to adapt as lighting and movement change. This direct control makes Native Camera suitable for serious creative work.

Switch Between Ultra-Wide, Wide, and Telephoto Lenses

Easily move between ultra-wide, wide, and telephoto lenses. Real-time hardware status updates show which camera your device is using. You can choose dramatic wide perspectives, natural standard views, or tighter telephoto shots without leaving the main interface.

Capture Professional Audio Your Way

Native Camera gives you flexible pro audio settings. Select stereo or mono channels and choose between the built-in microphone, USB microphones, or Bluetooth headsets. You can match your audio setup to interviews, vlogs, concerts, films, and outdoor recording.

Keep Videos Private With Clean Local Storage

Your privacy remains a priority. Native Camera processes and saves every video directly to the local DCIM/NativeCamera directory on your device. There are no account sign-ups and no tracking. Your footage stays under your control.
