About
EXPOCAL is the on-set exposure companion for cinematographers, DPs, and gaffers —
every calculation you reach for between scouting a location and rolling, in one fast,
dark-themed app.
Nail exposure
Incident metering math built on ISO 2720: dial in ISO/EI, shutter angle, and frame
rate to get the exact T-stop — or work backwards from an aperture to the lux you
need. Handles dual-base sensors and broadcast gain (dB) too.
Match your gear
Pick from a built-in library of cinema cameras and lenses. Check sensor coverage,
mount compatibility, and how a lens, extender, or adapter behaves across your kit.
Director's viewfinder
Frame a shot right on your phone. Choose a camera and focal length and the live
preview matches that lens's field of view — pinch or use the thumb zoom slider to
find the frame before the camera is even built. Overlay mode draws the exact framing
on a wide preview.
Depth & focus
Hyperfocal distance, depth of field, and aperture sweeps with sweet-spot,
diffraction, and noise guidance.
Light & color
ND filter stops, white-balance mired shifts, and CTB/CTO/plus-green gel
recommendations.
Live light-meter dial-in (LIT DUO)
Connect a LIT DUO meter over Bluetooth, set a target color temperature, and dial your
RGB fixtures until the marker lands on the reticle — it locks green and chimes when
you hit it. Warm–cool and magenta–green guides show exactly which way to push.
Export
Generate clean PDF reports for scene and sensor planning.
EXPOCAL gives estimates to support your judgment on set — always confirm critical
exposures with your meter and monitor.

What's New in EXPOCAL
1.5.2
August 11, 2026
• New camera: Sony FX5 (full-frame, triple base ISO 800/4000/12800). • Export the grandMA3 calibration plugins straight from the app (Pro). • Fixes external teleconverter exposure — the widest usable aperture now shifts with the extender instead of a flat two-stop change.
