Thirty-six chances.
No take-backs.

  • 36 exposures. When they are gone, the roll is gone. Frames are never given back.
  • No preview. After the shutter there is nothing to look at. Not a thumbnail, not a gallery.
  • Tomorrow at eight. The roll goes to the lab and comes back the next morning, developed.
  • Then you look. A contact sheet, a loupe, and a grease pencil for the ones worth keeping.

Free, offline, and it never asks who you are.

The roll is finished.

Thirty-six exposures, all of them used. Hand it in and it comes back developed.

The camera is empty.

Choose a stock before you choose a scene. That is the whole discipline.

Winding on

Sheets

Nothing has come back yet.

Shoot a roll, hand it in over the counter, and look here in the morning.

Every stock is here from the first day. Nothing is locked, and nothing costs anything.

What development does

CurveA response for each colour channel, applied before anything else.
GrainSynthesised at the frame's own resolution and weighted to the midtones, where silver actually sits.
HalationHighlights above the stock's threshold bloom and bleed a red edge into the dark beside them.
FalloffThe corners a cheap lens could never quite reach.
QuirksLeaks, misfires and drift, seeded per frame so no two are wrong the same way.

A stock is a set of numbers, not a filter laid over the top: a response curve for each colour channel, a grain structure, a halation threshold, and whatever quirks it owns up to on the box. Development runs those numbers over your frames on this device, one at a time.

Stock

Tap the box to turn it over.

Response

Input on the horizontal, what the film gives you on the vertical.

Settings

One batch a day. The counter shuts at 20:00, so a roll handed in after that misses the collection and comes back the morning after next. The app tells you the day and the hour as you hand it over.

Discreet is silent, and any roll with a discreet frame on it is stamped DISCREET in the sheet margin. Accountability is part of the deal.

The wind-on ratchet, felt.

On this device

Counting what is stored.

Frames live in this app's own storage and nowhere else. There is no account, no upload and no internet permission, so nothing can leave unless you export it yourself.

Contact Sheet. Thirty-six chances, no take-backs.
Free and complete. No accounts, no purchases, no ads.

Developing

Curve, grain, halation, then whatever light got in.

Rewinding

Instructions for the lab. You are choosing this blind, before you have seen a single frame, which is the only way it has ever been done.
