User reviews

The missing app for film obsessives.

I have a technical training in photography in the days of film, which meant a lot of maths, physics and chemistry. The hardest part was long exposures on film at night. Each film having its own issues after 1 second. This app solves that add adds in heaps of the other factors that affect the maths. All done for you! so good. The improvement I would like is the addition of FP4 (not sure why that is missed) and Lucky 100 and 400.

Timer

Really handy app for shooting larger formats. The timings all seem pretty good and I’ve never had a problem with them. Touch clunky to use but very helpful.

Only thing like it

Its a little ugly but gets the job done :)

非常有用的软件

非常好用,特别对于大画幅摄影,参数比较齐,功能也很多。能考虑的都考虑了。

A useful app

I’ve been using the app for a few years now and it has been very useful. Two improvements I recommend:
To be able to lock the film type, as it’s easy to change accidentally, and the ability to select more than one filter without having to return to the main display between each selection.
