Brizmo photo and video controls, including exposure, white balance, focus and shutter

Live View and remote shooting

See the live image on iPad, zoom in, tap to focus and release the shutter. Adjust aperture, shutter speed, ISO, white balance and focus area, with a level, grids and crop preview to help you compose. Available controls depend on the camera and shooting mode.

  • Live View zoom & focus
  • Av / Tv / ISO
  • level & composition grids
  • remote video · preview-only LUT
Exposure bracketing panel open over a landscape photo, with EV spacing, frame count, offset and rapid bracket settings

Custom exposure bracketing

Build a sequence around your current shutter speed: 3, 5, 7 or 9 frames, spaced 0.3–3 EV apart, with up to ±4 EV offset for the whole set. Rapid bracketing uses the camera’s built-in AEB and burst shooting (availability and frame count depend on the camera settings).

  • 3 / 5 / 7 / 9 frames
  • 0.3–3 EV spacing
  • whole set ±4 EV
  • standard sequence: dark → bright

Merge HDR on iPad

Select 3–9 frames to merge, or start bracketing and HDR merging with one tap. The result stays in the same Session for review and editing.

You can also generate a Lightroom-compatible HDR DNG.

  • bracket → HDR
  • select 3–9 frames
  • processed on iPad
  • HDR DNG support varies by camera & format

Receive and auto-send RAW

In the Receive & auto-send panel, choose whether JPG and RAW files stay on iPad, are sent automatically to a folder in Files, or both. RAW files kept on iPad stay available for HDR, Lightroom handoff and sharing after the camera disconnects; send-only RAW is removed from the iPad once delivered. With SMB, files can go to a shared folder on a computer on the same local network, ready for Lightroom Classic or Capture One. Files keep the camera’s original names and never overwrite existing files at the destination.

During automatic transfer, keep the camera connected, Brizmo in the foreground and the iPad screen on. Delivery to a folder does not confirm completed cloud syncing. Keep your memory card and existing backups.

Brizmo guided perspective correction interface with four adjustable guide lines

Non-destructive edits and perspective correction

Adjust exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, temperature, tint, vibrance and sharpness. Crop, straighten, rotate, set an aspect ratio or use guided perspective correction, then copy your settings to multiple photos. Edits can be reverted at any time and leave the originals on the camera card untouched.

  • light / colour / detail
  • crop, straighten & rotate
  • guided perspective correction
  • copy & revert edit settings
Brizmo Client View showing a photo full screen with star ratings, a filter and a thumbnail strip

Client View and image rating

Client View shows new photos full screen and hides the shooting and editing controls, so the person beside you sees only the pictures. Ratings and filters stay available, and new photos keep appearing as you shoot.

Screen Lock dims the display and ignores touches until you slide to unlock, so the iPad can be handed over or set down safely.

  • new photos full screen
  • star ratings & filters stay available
  • shooting & editing controls hidden
  • Screen Lock: slide to unlock

Sessions and offline use

Session-based photo management keeps received photos, previews and RAW files kept on iPad available for viewing, culling, editing and merging, even when the camera is offline.

Originals not yet received on the iPad require reconnecting to the camera.

  • receive new photos automatically
  • organise by Session
  • review received photos offline
  • ratings & selections saved on iPad

More ways to share

Use the built-in viewing and export tools to take your selections to the next step.

  1. Client View: display new photos full screen with shooting and editing controls hidden, for a clear on-set viewing experience.
  2. Watermarked export: add a watermark to selected photos before sharing.
  3. Selection text: export filename search text for Lightroom or Capture One, then use the corresponding filename search feature to find your selections among photos you have already imported.
  4. Lightroom handoff: send photos or supported HDR DNG files to Lightroom for further editing.

Available sharing and handoff formats depend on the photo source, camera support and whether the original is accessible.
