Mavis Camera Launches Film Kit Unlocking LUT Workflows an...

Mavis today announced the latest version of Mavis Camera (v7.4), a major update to its professional iOS camera app, headlined by the launch of Film Kit - an optional in-app purchase that unlocks LUT workflows and Open Gate capture for creators who want a more cinematic look and greater flexibility from their iPhone or iPad.

At the heart of Film Kit is a new color workflow; creators can now import custom .cube LUTs and choose whether to preview a look in the viewfinder (without affecting the recording) or burn the LUT into the deliverable. This same approach extends to HDMI inputs when using the Atomos Ninja Phone, allowing Mavis Camera to preview or capture LUT-applied footage from a DSLR or mirrorless camera, as well as the iPhone's internal camera.

For faster creative results, Film Kit also introduces a set of built-in filter LUTs, including Bleach Bypass, Bunny, Cinematic, IR, Monochrome, and Vintage, all designed to give shots a filmic character with minimal setup. When a production needs to move quickly from capture to delivery, these looks can be recorded and carried through into downstream workflows such as live streaming or NDI.

With this latest version of Mavis Camera, we wanted to make cinematic decision-making feel effortless, said Patrick Holroyd, CEO of Mavis. Film Kit gives creators a practical way to monitor or capture the look they want, whether they're shooting on an iPhone or a DSLR or mirrorless camera, without slowing down production.

To help simplify color management further, Mavis Camera v7.4 introduces MLUTs (MavisLUTs) - a new format that can bundle multiple traditional LUTs and associated metadata into a single file. MLUTs are designed to help teams organize looks more easily, especially when working across different color spaces.

Film Kit also adds Open Gate capture, giving creators the freedom to reframe and deliver to different aspect ratios from a single take. Mavis Camera provides two Open Gate modes: one is designed for Apple Log workflows, and one for Rec.709 that can capture above 4K resolution on supported devices. Apple Log 2 is also now supported, reflecting the direction of Apple's own pro capture workflows.

Beyond capture and color, v7.4 strengthens its cloud support with free ATOMOSphere Camera to Cloud integration, providing progressive uploading to the Atomos ecosystem for review, sharing, and collaboration.

A number of smaller refinements round out the release, including new white balance presets for faster setup, improved shutter-angle selection that snaps to common values (making standards like 180 easier to land reliably), refreshed translations (now fully supporting French, Spanish, Chinese, German, as well as English), and a wide set of bug fixes and performance improvements.

The Mavis Camera app is a free download available from the App Store. Film Kit functionality (including LUTs, MLUTs, and Open Gate) can be unlocked with a one-time in-app purchase of USD $9.99 (local conversions apply).
