The Elevcam camera: a live film look in the viewfinder, with the film strip below it

Pick a film. See it live.

Every Elevcam film has its own colour, grain and glow, and you see it in the viewfinder before you press the shutter. Here are a few favourites. About a dozen films are free, many more come with Pro, and new films keep coming.

Same light. More feeling.

Drag across the photo. On the left, the original. On the right, the same moment through A CFX: a deeper turquoise sea, bright sand and a little grain.

How it works

  1. 01

    Pick a film

    Swipe the strip of film chips below the viewfinder. The look is live, with its grain, halation and the odd light leak.

  2. 02

    Shoot

    Tap the shutter, or use the volume buttons or Camera Control. Photo or video, the film comes along.

  3. 03

    Your roll

    Shots count up like a 24-exposure roll. Browse by roll, change the look any time, even on many photos at once, and save to Photos when you're ready.

Made for everyday moments

    Browse the films and try one on your own photos before you shoot.

  • The same sea-cave photo split in two: the original on the left, re-filmed on the right, with a handle to compare Original kept

    Change the film after the shot

    Your original is always kept, so you can re-film a photo any time, or apply a film to many photos at once.

    Shoot in rolls of 24

    Finish a roll and develop it into one sheet to share.
