Scientific Camera Pro 2 — See things your way: with Pro Tools

Turn your phone into a pocket-sized optical lab. Scientific Camera Pro 2 is the only camera that shows you the math behind every shot, live.

For students, birders, DIY astronomers, surveyors, and tinkerers. Zero ads, zero tracking, zero compromises.

🔬 The Scientific Viewfinder

Live Tele Power & Zoom Ratio — true optical magnification and real-time zoom math.
Composition & Exposure — rule-of-thirds, crosshair, bubble level, luminance histogram.
Environment Overlay — weather, sunrise/sunset, location, and sensor data (temp, light, magnetic field, pressure).

📷 RAW + Full Manual Control

Adobe DNG capture — true RAW with sensor data, color matrices, and noise model, saved next to your JPEG.
Manual ISO / shutter / focus sliders — log-spaced, range-limited, one-tap reset.
Cinema overlays — RGB histogram, zebras, and focus peaking from one shared analysis pass.

🧪 Pro Tools — the scientist's toolkit

Each overlay is independently toggleable and remembers your preferences:

FOV Ruler — angular ticks in degrees and arcminutes for your effective FOV.
Hyperfocal & DOF — live near/far in-focus distances from focal length, sensor size, and subject distance.
Color Science — Kelvin meter, gray-card white-balance lock, tap-to-pick RGB / HSV / Lab / hex.
Light Meter & Flicker — EV(100), lux, 50/60 Hz LED flicker detection.
Measurement Mode — tap two points for real-world distance and angular size; calibrate against credit card, dollar, A4, or custom.
Sun & Moon AR Ephemeris — project daily sun/moon paths onto your viewfinder. Plan golden hour in seconds.
Astro Stack — 4–32 long exposures, phase-correlation aligned, sigma-clip + asinh fused. Star drift cancelled, so sessions run past 2 minutes on a tripod.
Focus Stack — sweep focus across N steps and fuse the sharpest pixels — front-to-back sharpness for macro and microscopy.
HDR Bracket (Mertens fusion) — 3 / 5 / 7 brackets at ±1–±3 EV, hand-held aligned, optional 16-bit RGB TIFF.
Time-Lapse Intervalometer — 1 s to 5 min cadence, optional shot caps.
Macro / microscopy scale bar — auto-calibrated mm/µm ruler.
Custom Viewfinder Reticles — loadable SVG grids for alignment in microscopy.
Screen Record Viewfinder — MP4 recording with scientific overlays burned in.
Field Notebook — every photo (JPEG, DNG, fused) gets a JSON sidecar with optics, location, sensors, and an exact-time sun/moon snapshot.

📸 Professional Controls

Full Manual Adjustments — exposure, white balance, scene presets, focus modes, color effects, hue/brightness/contrast.
Hardware Integrations — volume-key shutter, tap-to-focus, double-tap capture, instant front/rear switch.
Built-In Utilities — QR scanner, heart-rate optics demo, video recording, and quick-access gallery.

🛡️ Privacy First — Always

All image processing, optical calculations, sensor readings, RAW conversion, fusion, and Field Notebook sidecars stay entirely on your device.
