light&depth combines the best depth of field calculator with a fully-featured sun calculator, a light meter, exposure calculator and helpers for every situation. It gives you all the tools you need to supercharge your photography.
light&depth’s interface was designed to bring you all the information you need, as quickly and intuitively as possible. After all, we want you to focus on your photography, not on entering values and performing calculations in your head.
First of all, light&depth delivers the most accurate depth-of-field calculations for any camera on the market. Find out which camera settings lead to optimal sharpness. Calculate which objects will appear sharp for crisp focus and the perfect background bokeh. Include diffraction effects and adapt the calculations with precision modes to crops. Find the hyperfocal distance - beyond this distance, everything will appear sharp.
light&depths sun calculations help you with all the information you need about the sun’s location and light. Simply tap right in the AR view to find out when the Sun will hit that perfect spot. Plan ahead by changing the location and time, to find that perfect sunset photo spot. Calculate times for the golden hour, sunset and sunrise, and civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight. See where the sun will shine with beautiful visualizations and map overlays.
light&depth also includes a light meter and exposure calculator that makes manual exposure simpler than ever before. Find the optimal exposure immediately. Enter custom exposure corrections and ND-Filters. Calculate equivalent exposures, and see how you can adapt your exposure.
And that‘s not all! light&depth has more tools and utilities that help your photos and videos to shine, with a timelapse calculator and a star trail visualizer. All calculations are performed live and changes are immediately visible. We’re already working on even more additions, so stay tuned.
Much of light&depth can be customized to fit your style and equipment. You can customize the interface, and add your own prime lenses and aperture values. We provide a database of over 700 cameras, from classic film large-format cameras to state-of-the-art DSLMs. Should your camera be missing, we will update the database to add it within 48h.

If you enjoy light&depth, please leave us a review on the app store!
It really helps us out and keeps free updates (like this one) coming.
Thank you for your beautifully designed and functional app. I find it very detailed and useful.
However, I have encountered an issue that’s quite inconvenient for me. When I select the metric system (centimeters and meters) in the settings, the app still displays lengths in feet and inches when the measurement exceeds one meter. Since I primarily use the metric system here, this conversion can be a bit confusing and inconvenient. I would prefer if the app consistently used the metric system throughout, even for measurements over one meter.
Additionally, I noticed that the app hasn’t been updated for nearly three years. I was wondering if you’ve been focusing on other projects recently, and whether you plan to continue developing and maintaining this app in the future.
Thank you for considering this feedback. I look forward to hearing from you.
