Exclusive: VSCO is releasing its own camera app — the company’s first new standalone release in a decade.

It’s called Capture, and it will let users pick from 50 of VSCO’s popular photo filter presets before snapping a shot. There’s a manual mode, too.

US release is planned for later this summer.
