If you’re not happy with the photo filters in Instagram and Snapchat, Adobe has good news for you.

There will be time-limited, branded camera lenses from the likes of Billie Eilish and other “well-known artists and influencers.” Of course, you’ll be able to share your photos to apps like Instagram from within Photoshop Camera because that’s really what this is for.

Using software to bolster mobile photography, rather than relying purely on camera hardware, has been a nice trend in recent years. Both Google and Apple have made big strides in nighttime photography with software processing, for example. Adobe using the tech to make flashy, shareable photos makes sense.
