Paignion: Pixel Camera

Retro palettes and pixel patterns, rendered live. No editing after the shot — what you see in the viewfinder is what gets saved. LIVE PIXEL RENDERING Paignion runs a real Metal pixel-effect pipeline on every frame of the live camera feed — palette quantization, pattern, and dithering all happen before you tap the shutter, not as a filter applied afterward. 6 ICONIC PALETTES * Game Boy — the classic 4-shade green handheld display * NES — the 64-color palette from the original console's PPU * PICO-8 — the 16-color fantasy-console system palette * C64 — the Commodore 64's Pepto palette * CGA — the 16-color RGBI palette from early PC graphics * Master System — Sega's full 64-color, 6-bit RGB palette Palettes work on their own, or paired with any pattern. 4 PATTERNS + REAL BAYER DITHERING * Mosaic — chunky, blocky pixelation * Dot Screen — one ink dot per cell, colored to match the scene (Ben-Day comic style) * Halftone — a true CMY halftone rosette (three independently rotated ink-channel dot grids), full color or on a palette * Blocks — every pixel cell becomes a beveled, raised block for a chunky 2.5D, voxel-style look * Authentic ordered (Bayer) dithering, not a random-noise approximation — works with any palette, and it's never gated SCREEN FX Two screen finishes that turn the viewfinder into a tiny console display: CRT-style scanlines, and an LCD pixel-grid bezel overlay. YOUR LIBRARY, TOO Import any photo from your library and give it the same treatment — same presets, same Adjust panel, same live preview, plus a before/after slider to compare with the original. The result is saved as a new photo; your original stays untouched. FREE TO START Shoot or import with the Original (no filter), Game Boy Cam, and Mosaic Only presets at no cost — Bayer dithering is included free with every palette, always. Full Unlock adds the NES, PICO-8, C64, CGA, and Master System palettes, the Dot Screen, Halftone, and Blocks patterns, and both Screen FX finishes — a single one-time purchase, not a subscription.
