Adobe’s Project Indigo is a camera app built by camera nerds for camera nerds.

It's the most thoughtfully designed camera experience I’ve ever used on a phone.

The idea is to harness the benefits of multi-frame computational processing without the final photo looking over-processed.

Indigo aims for a more natural look, as well as ample flexibility for post-processing.

Project Indigo invites you into the usually mysterious process of taking a photo with a phone camera.

It’s not an app for everyone, but if that description sounds intriguing, then you’re my kind of camera nerd.

Indigo captures and merges more frames for each image than the standard camera app.

There are only so many liberties Apple and other phone camera makers can take in the name of aesthetics.
