The craft of light.
Luma writes camera recipes — the exact in-camera settings that produce a look — for Fujifilm and Sony, with Canon and Nikon in development. A fresh one for each system every morning, plus an AI hub, a light meter, an EXIF reader and a shooting journal. The desktop app is in open beta now: free to start, nothing to install.

Every recipe you keep, in one place.
Saved and generated recipes as a grid or a list. Search by name, filter by category, and each card carries its film simulation and the camera body it was written for. Create new recipe opens the builder.
Five tools, each priced up front.
Recipe Generator costs one credit, Image Analysis three, Creative Composition two and Gear Recommendations two with AI switched on. Advanced Preview is free, because it applies a recipe to your photo on your own machine. Every tool generates for the camera brand you've set as primary.
A new recipe for each camera system every morning, with every dial written out — film simulation, white balance and its shift, tone, grain — ready to set on the camera.
Save the looks you like, build your own from scratch, and pass them on as a QR code. Scan one back in and it imports in a click.
Turn a reference photo or a mood into a recipe, get a breakdown of a frame, preview a saved recipe on your own photo, plan a composition challenge, and get gear picks for your kit.
A bench of working tools: an EXIF viewer for every tag in a frame, a firmware tracker for the cameras you own, a QR scanner for recipe codes, and a light meter.
Keep the bodies and lenses you own in one place, and get notified when a camera you follow ships firmware or a lens you're tracking becomes available.
Find new places to shoot with AI-powered search, and save the spots you want to come back to.
Post your shot of the day, keep the streak alive, and look back at the year you made.
Share photos with the recipe behind them, follow photographers on the same gear, and keep up with firmware, launches and rumours for the brands you shoot.
