Sample EXPIRED GREEN
01 EXPIRED GREEN
Hot-glove-box summer.
A camera, not an app
A pocket Fuji,
always on you.
Scatto is an iPhone camera built around the feeling of a Fujifilm X-Half. Hand-tuned film simulations, real manual control, and a viewfinder that takes itself seriously - without the menu maze.

Section 01 · Film simulations
Four rolls.
Each one a decision.
Every film simulation is a 64-cube color LUT, hand-tuned in DaVinci Resolve from real reference scans. No saturation knobs, no presets - the look is baked into the file the moment you press the shutter.

SHIBUI NEG
Restrained, melancholic, everyday.
Muted greens, lifted blacks, a soft cyan in the shadows. The look of a Superia roll left in a bag for a summer.
- Ref · Classic Chrome
KODACHRONO
Editorial, dry, considered.
Slide-film yellows and warm earth tones. Highlights hold; the world looks like a documentary photo from 1972.
- Ref · Kodachrome 64
AKARI 64
Vivid, confident, sun-drenched.
Saturated reds, deep blue skies, punchy contrast. A glossy National Geographic spread on a single roll.
- Ref · Reala Ace
HONNE ACE
Honest, natural, balanced.
Faithful color, gentle contrast, accurate skin tones. The film you reach for when you want the scene, not a mood.
- Ref · Classic Negative
HARUKA
Nostalgic, warm, dreaming.
Amber light in the highlights, cool blue settling into the shadows. Saturated, soft, slightly overexposed — the way a late-summer afternoon sits in memory.
- Ref · Nostalgic Neg
KASUMI
Hazy, dreamy, faded.
Pale blue haze over warm amber midtones, washed highlights, lifted shadows. A California summer afternoon as it looks in a photo album fifteen years later.
- Ref · Classic Negative
RURI
Cinematic, jewel-toned, oceanic.
Lapis-deep blues, warm gold midtones, ocean horizons. Cinematic teal-and-orange — the Pacific coast at golden hour, summer skies that hold their color down into the shadows.
- Ref · Classic Chrome
HITOMI 400
Soft, warm, intimate.
Warm pastel skin, creamy highlights, a faint cool whisper in the deep shadows. The look of a portrait roll exposed for the face and printed on a calm afternoon.
Section 02 · Filter layer
Stack a second look.
Long-press the film tab to pull a filter on top of any film sim - expired film, halation glow, neutral fade. Two looks baked into one roll.

EXPIRED GREEN
Olive-green cast, muddy cyan shadows, lifted blacks. A roll of Superia left in a parked car for the summer.

FILTERSample EXPIRED RED02 EXPIRED REDDrugstore disposable.EXPIRED RED
Magenta-leaning, low contrast, washed-out highlights. The cheap film stock from a one-night-only camera.

Warm cream highlights, gentle muted saturation, lifted shadows in brown. A vintage softness without a strong cast.

A warm orange-red glow blooming around highlights. The unmistakable cinema-film look - Vision3 without the remjet.
Section 02 · Controls
Built like a camera.
Every visible element of Scatto is custom-drawn. No system buttons. No floating sliders. Metallic toggles, a yellow film tab, and a recessed shutter - controls that ask to be touched.
-
Manual exposure
Shutter, ISO, and exposure compensation as physical pills along the viewfinder. Tap to lock, drag to adjust.
-
Built-in album
A film-strip album lives inside Scatto. Browse your rolls, tap a frame for the full view, no jumping to Photos.
-
Hand-tuned LUTs
Every film simulation is a 64-cube color LUT, mastered in DaVinci Resolve. Not a quick saturation slider.
-
Filter layer
Stack a filter - expired film, halation, light leak - on top of any film sim. Two looks, one roll.
-
Real camera UI
Metallic toggles, a yellow film tab, a recessed shutter button. Every control feels like it belongs to a body, not a phone.
-
On-device by default
Photos save to your own album on your phone. No accounts, no sign-up, no cloud upload - your captures stay yours.
Section 03 · Screenshots
The camera, in hand.
Six surfaces, one mood. Drop your screenshots into /public/screenshots/ as 01.png - 06.png to fill these slots.
Section 04 · Philosophy
Less screen.
More camera.
The Fujifilm X-Half costs $849 and shoots JPEG-only on purpose. It chooses a vibe and asks you to live inside it. Scatto borrows that posture - committed look, locked-in aspect, no escape hatch.
A phone is not a Fuji. The sensor is smaller, the lens is fixed, the camera roll is bottomless. So Scatto leans into what the iPhone is: vertical-native, always-on, single-handed.
What you get is a camera that disappears the second you launch it. One tap to switch a film stock. A toggle for stills or movie. A shutter that knows what year it is. The rest is up to you.
"A camera that makes your iPhone feel like a tiny half-frame film camera."
