„Cannot calculate“

Rubbish!

Highly recommend. Very useful for night sky shots

This is a very useful app. It has helped me zero in on the correct exposures for lunar and other night sky photos.

Back I high school we had a full darkroom at home and I did a lot of my own b/w work with an Argus 35mm rangefinder and a GE light meter. Then I took a 30-year sabbatical; my wife is the much better photographer anyway. But recently, I've gotten an Olympus OM-D M10 micro 4/3 with a plethora of controls and options and am just starting to scratch the surface of digital photography. This app extends my capability and increases my fun with this camera. It's basic but solid and I recommend it.

Pulls it all together......

This is a fabulous self-teaching tool. It forces one to learn one's camera and pulls together the relationships among aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. I am an old duck, feeling younger.

Rip off

Beware. Hidden fees for each feature (fee for depth of field calculator, zoom, etc). Had I known that I would not have bought the base app.

Straight forward, easy to use and understand

My main use of this app is to determine approximate EV values and also look at the approximate dynamic ranges ( white and black clipping points) of raw files after the photos have been shot. For that it works very well.

Works great, simple, useful!

Exposure Calculator is simple to use and does what it says. It has frequent updates that add more camera models.

Thanks for an awesome app!

Bof

Le nombre de situation pourrait être bonifié. Et les éclairs ? Les arc en ciels? Les soupers à la bougie? Les fêtes de Noël? Les party à l'intérieur? Etc

Great app

I downloaded app on my IPAD1 to use as a helpful tool. If you use it like it is described, it gives a lot of helpful info

Missing EVs

There is no EV 1, EV -1 or EV 0 in the Night tab but the author plans to add them in the ios 6 upgrade.

Has Possibilities, but

A good, well laid out app. However:

1. Bottom chart is off two stops (EV) from chosen scene.

2. Would like option on shutter constant OR aperture constant.

so so

kind of counterintuitive at first the descriptions are kind of novice but it does work alright for bulb exposures

All good now

New review:
It now works well on my old iPod touch. Thank you! It's very handy to have in my pocket while out taking photos. Well done.

Old review:
I have been using this app for a long time, and have enjoyed it. Just checking the different possible exposures for particular scenes has taught me a lot.

I have an old iPod Touch – the highest iOS version possible is 3.1.3. The latest update for this app, and for its partner 'Depth of Field Calculator', requires iOS 3.2. This completely negates the functionality for me – the whole idea was to have these apps in my pocket, out on the street, as I'm taking photos. Now these apps are useless.

I haven't tested this app, but...

…producing a good photograph is nothing but math. And what could be better at math than a computer. The ONLY thing I can think of that would be left out and could possibly cause a different result would be the atmosphere. Foggy, rainy, right after it rains, hazy, etc. However most of the elements would only be about a +/-1 stop difference, more than likely. I've had the app for quite some time, but just hadn't thought about testing it. Anxious to test the depth of field more than exposure. If nothing else, there is always the 'wow' factor in formulating desired results. I'll test and give MHO soon.

EXPOSURE CALCULATOR

What a crapy software, Just way, way, way to complicated. I will stick to my manual calculation.

What a waste of time & money !!!

Excellent and Handy

Works great as described. Lots of scenarios to select from. All around excellent app. Thanks!

Perfect

This app gives the exact information that I was after- how to calculate long night time exposures (as well as every other lighting condition you might be faced with). It's got a really easy to use and understand interface, perfect for people like myself.

Very good!

Simple to use. As a pinholer, I'd like it to go higher than f/128.
