About
Project Indigo is a computational photography camera app from Adobe Labs that captures burst photos and combines them to produce high-quality images with lower noise and higher dynamic range. It offers Photo mode for everyday shooting with zero shutter lag and Night mode for low-light situations with longer exposures. The app includes full manual controls for focus, exposure time, ISO, white balance, and in Night mode, the number of frames to merge. Features include macro mode, super-resolution zoom to recover quality from digital zooming, a live histogram and zebra striping in the viewfinder, and long exposure mode for tripod-mounted shots. Raw DNG files integrate with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop, and the app includes experimental AI tools like denoise, reflection removal, and face dewarp. Available on iPhone 12 and newer, with best performance on iPhone 15 Pro or newer.
