Features for Professional Results

Manual Camera Control (Focus, Exposure, More)

Protake gives you full manual control over the settings that matter most: focus, exposure, ISO, shutter speed, and white balance. That means you can dial in brightness, sharpness, and overall color balance to match the exact look you’re after. Whether you’re working in low light, bright daylight, or tough mixed lighting, these controls help you shape your footage instead of just recording it.

High-Quality Video Recording (Up to 4K)

The app supports high-definition recording, with options up to 4K depending on your device’s capabilities. This helps you produce ultra-clear video that holds up well on larger displays—ideal for short films, vlogs, documentaries, and YouTube content. Protake also aims to keep recordings smooth and production-ready.

Real-Time Focus & Exposure Adjustments

One of Protake’s standout tools is the ability to change focus and exposure while recording. This is especially useful when lighting changes mid-shot or when focus needs to shift smoothly. It’s also great for experimenting with cinematic effects like rack focusing and for creating smoother transitions between focal points.

Frame Rate Control for Cinematic Effects

Control your frame rate to shoot in standard rates or create effects like slow motion and time-lapse. Protake supports a wide selection of frame rates (for example, 24fps, 30fps, 60fps, and more), letting you slow down fast action for drama or speed up slower moments for a more playful, artistic feel.

Log & Flat Color Profiles

Protake includes advanced color profiles such as Log and Flat, giving you more flexibility for color grading after the shoot. Shooting in Log helps retain more detail in both shadows and highlights, which can make it easier to shape the final look during post-production—particularly for filmmakers who plan to grade their footage intentionally.

Customizable On-Screen Interface

Its interface is designed to be both simple and adjustable. You can rearrange the layout to match your workflow and choose which camera controls appear on-screen—so you can quickly track critical settings like exposure, focus, and ISO. Protake also offers helpful composition aids such as gridlines and safe zones.

Waveform & Histogram Monitoring

To help you expose correctly and keep color balanced, Protake provides waveform and histogram monitors. These visuals show how bright different parts of your frame are, helping you avoid both overexposure and underexposure. This makes it easier to keep shadows and highlights from losing important detail.

Focus Peaking for Accurate Manual Focus

Focus peaking highlights the parts of your frame that are currently in sharp focus. It makes manual focusing more precise, especially when you’re trying to lock onto subjects quickly or fine-tune focus during a cinematic shot.
