Invaluable Tool for Film Photographers
A few years ago I bought an app called PhotoExif, which enabled me to record my settings when shooting film (lens, aperture, shutter speed, GPS, etc). Unfortunately it has since been pulled from the App Store, which left me looking for alternatives.
Thankfully, Analogshooter does that job mostly. I say ‘mostly’ because PhotoExif also had a desktop companion app that took the metadata and wrote it to the scanned files. I’m guessing having to upkeep a smartphone app and desktop app led to the developer giving up support for it.
So while Analogshooter doesn’t handle the writing of EXIF, one hopes its simplicity will make it easier to keep in existence.
Instead, the user can refer to the data in Analogshooter and then manually enter this information into the LensTagger plugin for Lightroom to handle the EXIF writing. This is of course a more long-winded workaround but until another app comes along to replace the functionality of PhotoExif, this is as good as it gets.
Thanks for making it!

Отличное приложение, все замечательно! Не хватает, только, синхронизации между своими устройствами. На съемках обычно с телефоном, а в лаборатории с планшетом… а в остальном - Огонь!
No customer support other than Facebook
I’ve downloaded the free version of the app and was really beginning to enjoy it however when I tried entering my films it would never save.
Could this be a limitation of the free version? Well, it says it’s up to the first 25 rolls but I’ll never know because the only way to reach the developer is by Facebook!

Very very good. So close to great.
One of the best of these types of apps.
Would be 5 stars with import/export and preview photo support.
I’d gladly pay more money and give it 5+ stars if it had a Lightroom importer plug in companion app.

Отличное! Нужное приложение!
Спасибо разработчику! Теперь можно не боятся потерять свои наработки! И совершенствоваться используя свой опыт!
