Tournage — Field Guide. Every control, explained.

The format

Capture & Recording

Tournage records 4K Apple Log in Apple ProRes 422 — and protects every frame.

ProRes 4K · Apple Log

Apple Log is a flat, wide-dynamic-range profile that preserves maximum highlight and shadow detail for grading in post. ProRes is a high-quality, edit-friendly codec. The LOG badge confirms Apple Log is live on the recording — not the punchy, baked-in look of the stock Camera app.

Crash-safe recording

Tournage writes your footage in a continuously-finalized format. If the app is killed, the phone dies, or the battery is pulled mid-take, the clip is still playable up to the last moment recorded. This is the core promise of Tournage: you don't lose the shot.

Crash recovery

If a take is ever interrupted (the app is force-quit, the phone crashes, the battery dies), just reopen Tournage. It finds the interrupted take automatically and offers to save it to Photos, playable up to the last recorded frame. Tournage keeps its own working copy only until a clip is safely in your Photos library, then deletes it, so the app never quietly fills up your phone.

Holding the phone the other way round

Tournage's screen is locked to one landscape orientation, so the picture never spins or jumps mid-shot, and the camera view always looks right whichever way you hold the phone. If you prefer holding it the other way round (lenses at the opposite end), tap the flip button: the circling-arrows icon next to the storage readout. It turns gold and:

The controls turn upright for the way you're holding it.
Your recordings are saved the right way up. Photos, players and editors (Premiere, Final Cut, Resolve) show them upright. Nothing is re-processed, so there's no quality cost.
Stereo left and right swap to match, so sounds on the left of the frame stay on the left channel.

Remember: if the controls look upside down, that's your cue to tap the flip button before you roll. It resets each time Tournage opens. Flipping during a take applies from your next recording, so a clip is never half-flipped.

Vertical mode

For Reels, TikTok and Shorts, tap the vertical button (the tall-rectangle icon beside the flip button) and hold the phone upright. Tournage becomes a proper portrait camera:

The controls re-arrange for a tall screen — status and toggles on top, zoom and presets on the right, everything else at the bottom, the middle clear for your shot.
Recordings save as upright vertical 4K (2160×3840) — no rotating in an editor, ready for vertical platforms.
Stereo, the horizon level and framing guides all switch to the vertical frame.
The flip button still works in vertical, for an upside-down hold. Vertical mode is remembered between launches and can't be switched mid-take.

Standard mode (iPads and non-Pro iPhones)

Apple Log ProRes needs an iPhone 15 Pro or newer. On other iPhones and on iPad, Tournage runs in Standard mode: the same camera — manual controls, focus tools, false color and zebras, presets, stereo audio, crash-safe recording, vertical mode — recording high-quality HEVC video (4K where the camera supports it) in normal Rec.709 color. The badge reads HEVC 4K, and looks are off, because they're built for Apple Log.

Storage readout

The top-right indicator (e.g. 97 min) shows how much recording time you have left at the current settings.

Clean screen — hide the controls

Want to see the whole frame with nothing on it? Tap the small eye beside the record button (in vertical mode it sits above the lens buttons). Every control slides away except the record button, which always stays, so you can start or stop a take at any moment. A faint PANEL pill stays where the eye was: tap it and everything comes back.

Works anytime: frame up clean before you roll, or while recording.
Your monitoring stays on the image: zebras, false color, focus peaking, framing guides, the grid and the red recording outline are part of judging the shot, so they don't hide.
Tournage always opens with the controls showing, so you'll never launch into a bare screen.

Prefer the controls just dimmed while rolling? That's Settings → Display → Fade controls while recording.

Cadence & movement

Frame Rate & Stabilization

Set how your footage moves — its cadence, and how steady it holds.

Frame rate

Tap the FPS cell at the top of the left rail to cycle the capture frame rate. Every rate records full 4K Apple Log ProRes — no drop in resolution at higher frame rates.

24 — the cinematic standard; the cadence of film and most narrative work.
30 — broadcast / social standard, slightly smoother.
60 — double the temporal detail: smoother motion, and it conforms to a clean 2× slow-motion in post. (Availability depends on your iPhone — see below.)

60fps requires a supporting iPhone. 4K Apple Log ProRes at 60fps is available on newer Pro models. On iPhones that only expose 4K30 in Apple Log, Tournage automatically hides 60 and the FPS cell simply cycles 24 / 30 — you're never offered a rate your device can't record.

60fps and storage: 60fps writes roughly twice the data of 30fps, so your minutes-remaining drops about twice as fast and long takes run warmer. The storage readout adjusts for the current frame rate automatically.

Frame rate is controlled inside Tournage — it does not piggyback on the iOS Camera app settings. Set it before you roll; Tournage locks it during recording.

Stabilization

Tap the STAB chip beside the record button to cycle stabilization. It smooths both the preview and the recording, and Tournage remembers your choice: it comes back when you reopen the app, switch lenses or leave slow motion (if a format can't stabilize, it shows Off until you're back on one that can).

Off — no stabilization; the truest, widest field of view.
Standard — steadies normal handheld shooting.
Cinematic — the smoothest, for walking and movement shots; crops in slightly and adds a touch of latency.

Set stabilization before you roll — switching modes briefly re-syncs the camera, so Tournage locks it during recording to keep that hitch out of your take.

Glass & reach

Lenses, Zoom & Slow Motion

Choose your optical lens, push in, or slow the moment down — all in 4K Apple Log.

Lens picker — 0.5× · 1× · tele

Tap the lens picker (the segmented pill beside the record button) to switch between your iPhone's physical optical lenses.

0.5× — ultra-wide. The widest field of view; also the close-focus (macro) lens for detail and product shots.
1× — main. Your primary lens: best overall quality and low-light performance.
tele (e.g. 4× or 5×) — telephoto. True optical reach with no quality loss; the exact factor depends on your iPhone.

Every lens records full 4K Apple Log ProRes — switching never drops you out of the Log pipeline. Tournage reads the real optical factors from your device, so the buttons always show the correct magnifications for your iPhone, and only the lenses you actually have.

Why explicit lenses, not auto-switching? Pick the exact glass and Tournage stays there — no surprise lens changes mid-take based on lighting. Deterministic control is what you want for serious work. Lens switches are locked during recording.

Zoom

Pinch the preview, or drag the vertical zoom slider (right side, beside the P1/P2/P3 rail), to zoom in on the current lens.

The × readout shows your stock-equivalent magnification — on the telephoto it starts at its native factor (e.g. 4×) and climbs from there.
Zoom beyond a lens's optical range is digital (a crop). For the cleanest image, switch to the nearest optical lens first, then zoom.

Slow motion

Tap SLO (top bar) to enter high-frame-rate slow motion.

Tournage switches to your iPhone's fastest slo-mo rate — up to 240fps → 8× slow (or 120fps → 4×), shown in the format badge.
Record normally — the clip is time-stretched as you shoot, so it plays back in slow motion straight out of camera, no editing needed.
Tap SLO again to return to 4K Apple Log ProRes.

What's different in slo-mo (by design): it records HEVC 1080p, not ProRes/Log (LOG badge off, LUTs/guides don't apply) and it's silent — audio can't be meaningfully stretched 8×. This mirrors the stock Camera. ProRes can't sustain 240fps; HEVC is the right tool and exactly what Apple uses.

Framing guides

⚙️ Settings → DISPLAY → Framing guide overlays a crop guide so you can compose for a target aspect ratio: 2.39:1 · 2.35:1 · 16:9 · 4:3 · 1:1 · 9:16 (or Off).

It's a composition overlay only — your recording stays full 4K 16:9, so you crop to the ratio in post with nothing lost. The guide draws on the live preview, so close Settings to see it on your shot.

Manual control

Exposure — Shutter · ISO · White Balance

The left rail holds the manual controls. Each shows AUTO or its locked value (gold when manual). Tap one to open its panel — quick presets, a slider, and an AUTO button to hand it back to the camera.

Shutter

Controls motion blur, measured in degrees (the cinema convention) — Tournage shows both angle and speed, e.g. 180° · 1/48. 180° is the cine standard for natural, filmic motion blur. Lower angles (45°, 90°) give crisper motion for action; higher angles (270°, 360°) add more blur and brighten the exposure.

45°90°172.8°180°270°360°

ISO

Sensor sensitivity / brightness. Lower is cleaner but needs more light; higher brightens low-light scenes at the cost of noise.

10020040080016003200

White Balance

Sets color temperature in Kelvin so whites stay white under different lighting. Locking it manually stops color from shifting mid-shot.

Candle 1900Tungsten 3200Warm 3800Fluoro 4300Daylight 5600Flash 5900Cloudy 6500Shade 7500

Aperture is not adjustable — iPhone lenses have a fixed aperture (no mechanical iris). Exposure is set with ISO + shutter.

The complete toolkit

Focus System

Tournage has a full focus toolkit — from quick run-and-gun autofocus to true cinematic rack focus between your real subjects.

Focus on your foreground subject and hold A to set it; focus on your background and hold B. Then tap A or B and the lens glides between them at the PULL speed. hold = set · tap = pull · double-tap = clear

Face-priority focus

Turn on ⚙️ Settings → CAPTURE → Face-priority focus and Tournage locks focus and exposure onto a subject's face, keeping them sharp and lit as they move. A gold box appears around each face it finds, so you can see it working. Ideal for interviews, pieces-to-camera and solo shooting. Faces guide focus while autofocus is running: with manual focus, an AE/AF lock or a rack pull, you're in control and the boxes hide.

Smooth autofocus

By default Tournage uses Apple's video-oriented autofocus, which eases focus changes rather than snapping, so panning across a scene doesn't show the lens hunting. For subjects moving toward or away from you, turn Settings → CAPTURE → Smooth autofocus off for faster, more decisive focus.

Tap to focus

Tap anywhere on the image to focus there. Focus snaps to the spot, then keeps tracking it automatically, so it stays sharp if the subject moves closer or further away. To hold focus at one distance instead, long-press the focus circle (AE/AF lock) or use manual focus. Double-tap the circle to go back to whole-frame autofocus.

Tap image · focus subjectDouble-tap circle · whole-frame AF

AE/AF Lock HOLD

Tap to focus, then long-press the focus circle to lock both focus and exposure at that spot. The circle turns yellow with an AE/AF LOCK badge — now neither drifts, even if someone walks through frame or the light shifts. Tap anywhere away to release. Exactly like the stock camera's lock, essential for keeping a shot nailed mid-take.

Long-press circle · lock AE/AFTap away · release

A / B rack marks CINEMATIC

Pull focus between two subjects in your actual scene — exactly how a focus puller works. Focus on your foreground subject and hold A to set it; focus on your background and hold B. Then tap A or B and the lens glides between them at your chosen pull speed.

Tap · pull to itHold · set the markCLEAR · wipes both marks

Pull speed

How fast a rack travels between marks — with an ease-in/ease-out so it starts and stops gently, like a real pull.

Instant — snaps immediately.
Fast (~0.6s) — quick, snappy rack for action.
Med (~1.5s) — a natural pace.
Slow (~3.2s) — slow, deliberate cinematic pull.

Near · Mid · Far · ∞ — distance locks

These lock focus to a fixed distance (not to a subject). Their job is lock-and-leave — nail focus and stop the lens from hunting, which is the #1 giveaway of amateur footage.

∞ (infinity) — landscapes, skylines, night sky. Distant scenery stays tack-sharp.
Near — macro / detail: product, food, hands, close inserts.
Mid / Far — deep-focus / hyperfocal locks for B-roll, walking shots, vlogging.
Also great as a focus trap — pre-set the distance so a subject is sharp the instant they hit the mark.

Focus slider

Drag to set focus by hand — a manual follow-focus wheel. Direct and immediate; your hand sets the speed.

A/B vs Near/∞: A/B are dynamic pulls between subjects. Near/∞ are static distance locks that kill autofocus hunting. Different jobs — keep both in your kit.

One-tap looks

Presets — P1 · P2 · P3

Three slots on the right rail that store a complete camera state: cinema or slo-mo mode, lens, zoom, frame rate, stabilization, ISO, shutter, white balance, focus, the auto/manual flags, your look and your monitoring toggles. Recalling switches the camera mode first, then restores exposure and the look, so nothing gets reset along the way.

Tap · recall the lookHold · save (you confirm first)

Gold when saved, dim when empty.
Build a look once, recall it in a second — perfect for switching between repeatable setups.
Saving is deliberate: hold a slot for about half a second, feel the tap, then confirm "Save current settings to P2?". A quick tap only ever recalls, so you can't overwrite a slot by accident.
Name them in Settings → PRESETS (Action, Cinematic, Interview…). The rail always shows P1–P3 to stay compact; the names appear when you save or recall, e.g. "P2 · Interview".

See what you're shooting

Monitoring Tools

Toggle these from the top bar. They change what you see — never the recording.

LUT — applies a real Apple Log → Rec.709 conversion so the flat Log image previews with natural contrast and color. Your recording stays full Apple Log for grading.
Peak (focus peaking) — outlines the in-focus edges so you can nail critical focus by eye.
Zebra — diagonal stripes over bright areas, on the same calibrated scale as false color (100% = the sensor's real clipping point). Set the threshold in Settings; expose so important highlights aren't striped.
False (false color) — paints the image by exposure level: blue/purple too dark, green perfect mid-tones, yellow bright but safe, orange near clipping, red clipped. The most precise exposure read; see Reading false color below.
Horizon level (Settings → Display) — a tilt meter above the STAB button: gold when tilted, yellow within 4°, glowing green within 1° of level, with a live degree readout. Off by default.
Histogram — a live graph of the tonal range, shadows on the left to highlights on the right. Long-press it to switch to RGB: separate red, green, and blue curves for judging colour balance and per-channel clipping, plus a live average-colour swatch and R/G/B readout. Long-press again for the luma view.

Reading false color

False color replaces the picture with a map of exposure. Each color is a brightness band. Learn eight colors and you can expose perfectly without trusting a phone screen in bright sun.

Stops are measured from middle gray (an 18% gray card). Red is calibrated to where the iPhone's sensor actually clips, checked per color channel, so a saturated light that clips only one channel still shows red.

Skin tones: light skin usually sits in light gray, about a stop above green. Medium and olive skin straddle green and light gray. Deep skin belongs in green or just below it. Keep faces out of yellow, and never let a face drop into blue.
Green is middle gray, the anchor of exposure. A gray card, a mid-tone wall or a medium-colored jacket landing in green means you're exposed correctly.
Yellow is not a warning. It means bright but fully recorded. Apple Log keeps several stops more highlight detail than the normal preview can show, so a sky can look blown out on screen while false color says yellow. Trust the yellow: that detail is in the file for grading.
Orange means the last stop before clipping. Fine for a sky or a lamp, risky for anything you care about.
Red means the sensor clipped and no detail is left. Light sources and shiny reflections are expected to be red. Faces, clouds and white clothing are not.
Blue and purple are shadows that will be noisy (blue) or pure black (purple). Fine for deliberate silhouettes and night skies; otherwise add light, widen the shutter angle, or raise ISO.

Underexposed frame in the normal preview — One frame at three exposures, rendered with Tournage's actual false-color code. Look at the right-hand column: the normal preview clips about two stops before the sensor does, and false color shows you what the Apple Log file really holds.

Underexposed frame in false color, mostly blue — One frame at three exposures, rendered with Tournage's actual false-color code. Look at the right-hand column: the normal preview clips about two stops before the sensor does, and false color shows you what the Apple Log file really holds.

What the scopes measure: false color and zebras read the recorded Apple Log signal, calibrated to where the iPhone's sensor actually clips, so they're accurate whether or not a LUT or look is on screen. The histogram shows the graded (Rec.709) image.

Your grade, live

Looks & LUTs

Preview your footage with a real grade — the built-in Rec.709 conversion, your own custom LUTs, or the signature looks that ship with Tournage.

Signature looks included

Tournage ships with a curated library of 18 signature looks in Settings → LOOKS. Warm & golden: Soleil, Ambre, Lumière. Fresh & clean: Printemps, Menthe, Pavé, Forêt. Soft & muted: Brume, Ardoise, Étain. Blue & cinematic: Azur, Riviera, Cobalt, Minuit (moonlit night). Bold: Éclat (colour pop), Cosmos (retro sci-fi). And two black-and-white options: Noir (high-contrast, film-noir style) and Argent (a clean, neutral silver B&W — ideal for monitoring light and composition without colour). Like any LUT they're visual-only by default (your recording stays full colour Apple Log), or bake one in for a finished file.

The LUT button — tap to cycle looks

The top-bar LUT chip cycles through your looks, one tap at a time, and shows which one is live:

LUT (flat Log) → 709 (the built-in conversion) → your starred LUTs → back to LUT.
Star up to four go-to looks (in Settings → LOOKS) to keep them in the cycle; your whole library is always one tap away in Settings.

Add your own LUTs — two ways iPHONE

Load as many .cube LUTs as you like. Apple's Files app makes this a touch fiddly, so there are two routes:

Option A — import one file.

⚙️ Settings → LOOKS → Import .cube, then pick the file. It's copied into your library and selected.

Option B — drop a whole batch into the folder (easiest for several):

Open Tournage once so it creates its folder.
Files → Browse → On My iPhone → Tournage. (Not there yet? Restart the phone once — iOS re-scans on boot.)
Drop in as many .cube files as you want.
Back in the app: ⚙️ Settings → LOOKS → Refresh. They all appear in your library.

If a LUT arrived as a .zip, tap it in Files to extract first. Imports persist across launches.

Your library

Every look lives in Settings → LOOKS — the built-in Rec.709 plus all your LUTs. On each row: tap to select it and ★ to add it to the LUT-button cycle, which runs Log → 709 → your ★ looks and back to Log. The small ◁ beside the LUT button steps the same cycle backwards, so you can return to a look you just passed without going all the way round. Star as many as you like, or use Star all to cycle through everything. Your own LUTs have a 🗑 to delete them (with a confirmation). The built-in Tournage looks can't be deleted, but the eye icon hides any you don't use; Restore brings them all back, still starred. There's no slot limit, so bring your whole collection.

Look intensity — dial it in

Want just a hint of a look? When a look is active, a small gold tag beside its name shows its strength (e.g. 100%). Tap the tag and a MIX slider slides out underneath: drag it down for less of the look, up for more. It tucks itself away a few seconds after you let go, and it never pops up while you're just cycling through looks. Double-tap the slider to snap back to 100%.

It mixes toward clean Rec.709, not flat Log — so lowering it never goes grey or washed-out. 100% is the full look, 50% is half the look on a natural picture, and 15–25% is a subtle tint of colour on an otherwise natural image.
Every look starts at 100% — switch looks and the new one opens exactly as designed, so you're never surprised by a strength you set days ago. Reopening Tournage keeps the look you were on at the strength you left it.
Keep a custom strength in a preset — P1, P2 and P3 store the look and its intensity, so "Minuit at 40%" is one tap away.
Hold a look at your strength — press the % tag for 2 seconds (a ring fills around it, then you feel a tap). It turns teal: that look now comes back at that strength every time you return to it, while the other looks still start at 100%. Hold as many looks as you like, each at its own strength. Press 2 seconds again to release it (back to 100%). Shortcut: with the slider open, just tap the MIX pill — it becomes a teal HELD pill and the knob turns teal; tap again to release.
Baking matches the screen — with “Bake LUT into recording” on, the file gets exactly the strength you see. Visual-only, your recording stays untouched Apple Log as always.

Visual look, or baked in

By default a LUT only changes what you see — your recording is always untouched Apple Log ProRes, so you keep full grading latitude in post. If you'd rather get a finished file straight out of camera, turn on Settings → LOOKS → “Bake LUT into recording.” Then the selected look is rendered into the recording (Rec.709) — great for quick delivery, but it can't be re-graded later. Off by default.

Bake switches itself off each time Tournage closes, so you never bake a shoot by accident and lose your Log. Always want it? Set your look, turn Bake on, and save it to a preset: P1–P3 remember the bake setting, so one tap gets you a baked look on purpose.

LOG vs BAKED badge. The top bar always tells you the truth about your file: LOG means it's recording gradeable Apple Log (a visual LUT doesn't change this), and BAKED means the look is being written into the file (Rec.709). Monitor with any look on and still know exactly what's being saved.

Use LUTs designed for Apple Log — they're applied to the Log signal directly (the native iPhone workflow). With a LUT visual-only, your scopes keep reading the neutral Rec.709 grade, so exposure stays accurate under any creative look.

Confident sound

Audio

Pro audio that just works — on any mic, on any set.

Stereo recording — on by default. The built-in mics record true stereo, using the microphones on the camera side so the sound faces the same way as the picture. Left and right follow the scene, including when you hold the phone the other way round (see the flip button).
Mono for dialogue — turn Settings → Capture → Stereo audio off for interviews and talking to camera, where dialogue is traditionally recorded in mono.
Mic meter — two bars = stereo, one bar = mono. The bars stay gold and only turn red when the level clips. The mic icon turns red while you're recording.
External mics — plug in a USB-C, Lightning or wireless mic while the app is running and Tournage switches to it automatically, no restart; stereo mics record stereo. The Stereo audio setting only affects the built-in mics. Unplug and it reverts.
Gain — a digital trim (−12 to +24 dB) to push or pull the recorded level. Aim for your loudest moments high on the meter but never red.
48 kHz AAC — audio is locked at 48 kHz, so swapping mics mid-shoot never pitch-shifts your recording, and a clip's format never shifts under you.

The gear

Settings

Tap the gear icon in the top bar for the deeper controls.

Composition grid — a rule-of-thirds overlay for framing; place subjects on the lines and intersections.
Horizon level — the tilt meter above STAB; green when you're level.
Framing guide — overlay a crop guide for 2.39, 2.35, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1 or 9:16 (the recording stays full 16:9).
Recording outline — a red border around the frame while you're rolling, so you always know you're recording.
Fade controls while recording — dims the interface during a take so you can see the whole shot.
Histogram — toggle the live tone graph. Turn it off for the smoothest possible preview when you don't need it.
Zebra threshold — where stripes kick in, on the calibrated scale where 100% = the sensor's real clipping point. Around 90% gives cautious highlight protection; 98–100% flags only true clipping.
Bake LUT into recording and Show Tournage looks — record the selected look into the file instead of flat Log, and show or hide the 18 built-in looks (see Looks).
Face-priority focus — keep focus and exposure on faces (gold box = face found).
Smooth autofocus — eased focus changes (default); off = faster, more decisive.
Stereo audio — built-in mics in stereo (default), or mono for dialogue.
Tap to focus — turn tapping the image to focus on or off. Switch it off so stray taps never move your focus — then focus only through the FOCUS panel, marks, or slider.
Capture — your format and frame rate at a glance, plus the stabilization control.
Intro haptics (Settings → APP) — when Tournage opens, the logo assembles blade by blade and you feel a light tick as each one clicks in. On by default; turn it off for a silent, buzz-free launch. Haptics only play during the intro — never while you're recording.
About — the ownership pledge, links to this guide and support, and your app version.
