## What is CineMeter Pro?

Lighting a scene and second-guessing every reading? Stop carrying $1,500 of hardware to confirm your white balance. CineMeter Pro turns your iPhone into a calibrated cinema-grade color and exposure meter built for the way you actually shoot.

Built by filmmakers, for filmmakers — the only iPhone meter that pulls real exposure metadata straight from your camera. No guessing, no pixel-brightness hacks.

ONE METER. ONE POCKET. EVERY SCENE.

TRY EVERYTHING FREE FOR 3 DAYS
Full features require a paid subscription or one-time Lifetime purchase. Start with a 3-day free trial — full access to every feature below.

NEW: SUN POSITION TRACKER
Plan every shot before you arrive. Live sun tracking, an AR sun marker overlaid on your camera preview, and the full daily sun path projected on the live view with labeled markers at sunrise, golden hour, solar noon, and sunset. Scout locations and time shots without leaving the app.

ACCURATE COLOR TEMPERATURE
Measure CCT in Kelvin from 2000K to 10000K. See green/magenta tint in the units you use — Sekonic CC index, ±, Mired shift, or full CC values. Visual scales show exactly where you sit between tungsten and daylight.

REAL EXPOSURE, REAL ND RECOMMENDATIONS
The ND filter calculator runs the APEX photographic exposure system to ISO 2720 standard. Dial in your cinema camera's T-stop, ISO, FPS, and shutter angle — get the exact ND density. T-stops in half-stop precision (T1.0–T22). ISOs in third-stop precision (100–12800). Frame rates 23.976–120. Shutter angles 45°–360°.

A SPOT METER THAT ACTUALLY HOLDS
Drag and resize the spot meter anywhere on frame. HOLD locks the reading like a real Sekonic — not just the position, the value. Take readings on talent, walls, practicals, and compare side by side.

A FULL ON-SET MONITORING SUITE
- RGB Waveform monitor (luminance, RGB, parade)
- Histogram with full RGB channel breakdown
- False color overlay with IRE legend
- LUT preview support
- Illumination meter in lux, foot-candles, EV100

GEL & FILTER RECOMMENDATIONS
Tell it your target color temperature. It tells you the exact CTO, CTB, plus-green or minus-green gel.

CALIBRATE LIKE A PRO
Calibrate against CIE illuminants — D65, D50, tungsten, or custom. Manual temperature/tint offset and ±3 stops of exposure compensation let you trim to match the meter you trust.

CAPTURE, LOG, EXPORT
Save readings with reference photo, location tag, and notes. Group by date, filter by Today / Tungsten / Daylight / Cool / Logs, or run continuous Log sessions. Export to PDF or CSV. Compare two readings side by side.

MADE FOR ON-SET
Dark UI engineered for set use. Native iPad layout with a dedicated side panel. iPhone and iPad universal.

PERFECT FOR
Cinematographers, gaffers, DITs, camera assistants, indie filmmakers, location scouts, landscape and real estate photographers, drone pilots, music video and commercial DPs.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8 — 2026-08-03

A precision update. We tightened the parts of the app cinematographers rely on
most for on-set decisions.

• Sun position events now compute correctly on every continent.
• Gel recommendations for green/magenta correction are now aligned with the
  Rosco Cinegel datasheet — right gel, right strength.
• Improved gel combination logic for cleaner daylight ↔ tungsten conversions.
• Numerous small refinements to the tint scale, sun path overlay, and DST
  handling.

### 1.7 — 2026-07-14

Plan every shoot with the sun.

Sun Position just got a huge upgrade:

• Scout any city, address, or landmark worldwide
• Preview the sun's path for any past or future date
• Jump to sunrise, golden hour, noon, or sunset with one tap
• Slide the time-of-day to watch the sun move
• Bookmark your favourite spots and dates as sessions
• New shadow-direction and sunrise/sunset chips on the live view

Also in this update: a smoother launch, richer capture haptics, redesigned empty screens, undo-delete for readings, and a faster, more polished feel throughout.

### 1.5 — 2026-07-05

New: Sun Position Tracker
Plan every shot with live sun tracking, an AR sun marker on your camera preview, and the full daily sun path with sunrise, golden hour, solar noon, and sunset.
