About this Episode

The App Store has loads of camera apps, but Koloristika is unlike all the others. Its new Monolith mode captures black and white images by reading monochrome values directly from the iPhone's camera sensor and saving as a true black and white raw image. We talk to Koloristika's CEO, cinematographer, and color scientist Renato R. Renierra about what's happening behind the lens.
