The VSCO Capture app has been updated to support video recording, a significant expansion from its photo-only origins. According to the source, users can now shoot video while applying more than 50 VSCO filter presets in real-time. This update positions VSCO Capture as a more direct competitor to native camera applications and other social media content creation tools like Instagram or TikTok.

The ability to apply cinematic color grading and film grain filters live during capture streamlines the workflow for creators, eliminating the need for post-production editing in separate applications. This functionality is particularly timely, released just ahead of New Year's Eve celebrations, allowing users to capture holiday moments with VSCO's signature aesthetic immediately. For the mobile photography industry, this signals a continued trend of integrating advanced editing capabilities directly into the capture process, catering to the growing demand for high-quality, instant social media content.
