Graded, never baked in.
Pick a look and drag across the picture to compare it with the photograph as shot. Photo Lab saves an edit as a new photo; the original is never touched.
Turn the wheel.
Find the frame.
Kadar is a manual camera for iPhone and Android. This page starts out of focus; the wheel below brings it back, the way Kadar does with a real lens.
Turn until the peaking lights up.
Kadar · noun, Croatian
A frame. The one you meant.
Shutter, ISO, white balance and focus on wheels you can feel, a viewfinder that shows the exposure before you take it, and nothing your phone cannot actually do. Made in Zagreb.
Shutter
Exposure
Read the light before you shoot.
Turn the shutter. The histogram is this picture’s own, and the zebra marks every highlight you are about to lose.

The app
Same moment. Two phones.
On iPhone, Kadar starts from Apple’s own camera; on Android, from Material. Pick a moment to see it on both.
Honest hardware
What your phone can do. Nothing it cannot.
Formats, megapixels, flash and lenses come from what your phone reports. A control another lens has and this one lacks is shown greyed, with the reason, never hidden and never faked.
Privacy
Your photographs stay yours.
Photographs are saved to your own library and never uploaded. No account, no advertising, no tracking. The app goes online only to check a Kadar Pro purchase with the App Store or Google Play; the privacy policy says exactly what that involves.
Kadar Pro
Manual mode, the RAW formats and the advanced overlays. Everything else in Kadar is free, looks and Photo Lab included.
