User reviews

10/10 light meter app

works extremely well gives very accurate readings first roll of film came out perfect because of this app

Simple and Clean

Easy to use. Have not yet developed photos, so unsure how accurate readings are, but seems to match what other methods produce so far

It really does exactly what it says

The user experience is very streamlined, which makes it a good fit for the film photographer that just want to take a reading and get quick calculation for diffferent iso/aperture/shutter settings

Helps

I just got a film camera and know next to nothing about what settings to use so this helps and take some of the guessing out of taking good photos

Great app

Would use again
