  • Amazing, work horse app

    I’ve used this app for years now and love it. So many features were framed using this app!
  • Great time saving app

    this app allows instant previsualization before trying lenses and setting up camera
  • Fantastic!

    This app just does exactly what I need to to. So easy to use, so customizable, so worth every penny!! You will not regret getting this app!!!
  • Simply Invaluable!

    This a a must for any serious photographer. It does everything it claims and more. When I’m in the field, I use it many times per day. In addition to previsulization, it functions as a notebook for scouting potential shots. The gps function enables return to the precise location. I always use it to locate and set my initial tripod position.
    The map function could be enhanced with the addition of a direction indicator. Easier access to the time/date data would also be an improvement.

  • Fotographer

    Amazing app , very helpful
  • Indispensable

    A highly customizable app that helps me select equipment and lenses before setting up the camera. Also useful when scouting locations to preplan shots.
  • Z-Cam E2-F6 is missing

    This app is good but unfortunately don’t have any Z-cam flagship in its virtual camera setting. I hope they add this soon. Many filmmakers are using this cinema camera now.

    Developer Response

    You can add any camera, even if it's not in the app's database, using either "generic" equipment or the "custom camera" feature. Using generic equipment is described on pages 41-42, and creating custom cameras is discussed on pages 42-45 of the Viewfinder Handbook (free download from https://www.artistsviewfinder.com/handbook/). But of course your request to add these cameras is noted.
  • Indispensable tool

    Absolutely amazing way to set up shots. I have multiple cameras loaded with all their respective lenses. One quick location picture and I can see all the possible framings.
  • Saves time and saves film

    I shoot several formats of film with a variety of equipment and often the setup time is a consideration. I have relied on this app to help me check the composition With various lenses in these formats for years and it has saved me a lot of time and even wasted film. In regards to the latter, if I were to go through the motions of setting up something like my 8x10 view camera, I might be inclined to expose a couple of sheets of film even though the image may not be as refined as I want. By using this app, I can frame, capture and study the composition well before ever exposing the film.

  • Worth every penny

    At first I balked at the $30 price. But it seemed to do exactly what I needed and the other reviews were good so I bought it. I am extremely impressed.

    I use it to scout for shooting locations. I can see what different cameras look like with different lenses. It captures gps data so I can find my way back carrying just the gear I need.
