CatchLight

CatchLight turns your device into a light source. The perfect light for miniatures, models and macro. Design lights with custom shapes, colours and gradients.

CatchLight is a precision lighting tool built for miniature photographers, painters, scale modelers, and macro shooters. Turn your iPhone or iPad into a fully customizable light source - dialed in exactly for small subjects, tight setups, and detailed work. Build your light from a full shape library and fine-tune every parameter: brightness, softness, vignette, Kelvin temperature, gel color, noise texture and gradients. The noise layer adds organic film-grain character to your light, so your miniatures and models read as real environments rather than lit objects on a table.

Features Shape library: circle, ring, square, hexagon, softbox, umbrella, window, gradient, line, text, image, and more Precision controls: brightness, softness, vignette, Kelvin temperature, gel color, and saturation Noise layer: intensity, scale, and blur for organic, natural-looking light Window grid: adjustable columns, rows, and frame width Multi-shape canvas: layer multiple light sources for complex setups Presets: save and recall complete lighting configurations Link mode: wirelessly control other displays from a single controller device. Multi-device studio: dedicate separate devices to key, fill, and rim External display: connect to a TV or monitor for large soft light panels Photo backgrounds: use images as light sources for realistic reflections

Perfect for miniature painters and photographers, scale modellers, tabletop RPG and wargaming hobbyists, jewelry / macro shooters, and product photographers working with small subjects.
