Lit Cam : Light and Camera1.6 - App Store

Lit Cam 2.0 coming soon - fully rebuilt, new modes, free for current users!

Turn your device into a light-powered camera, with full control of both the screen and the rear flash. Illuminate subjects at night, zoom-in for sharp macro shots and add a natural glow when taking selfies. Lit Cam is the only app that lets you take photos in complete darkness!

Light is everything in photography. Flash in other camera apps can be unpredictable and overpower the photo. We transform it into a continuous configurable light, which makes it vastly more useful. Add the perfect amount to highlight your subject and strike the perfect foreground to background balance. Combine light with zoom to improve photo sharpness and capture hard to see details, which is great for close-ups.

The app also works as a photo light. Use it to fill shadows and be creative when using another device as the camera. Adding light is key when taking photos at night or in low light situations. Portable photo lighting solutions can cost over $100. Lit Cam provides similar functionality with the devices you already have. Transform that extra phone or tablet into a photo light!

Take better photos at night and add some pop to macros / close-ups. Now go light some shots!
