Wrong

Hopeless it’s so far wrong it’s a joke 7-18 stops out not wrong

App war mal echt gut - Sensor am modernen iPhone?

Ich habe mir vor längerer Zeit die App gekauft und sie funktioniert soweit auch gut, allerdings ist der teure Sensor mit modernen Geräten nicht mehr zu gebrauchen.
Jetzt habe ich eine App, bei der das Mikrofon zu empfindlich und der teure Sensor nicht mehr ansteckbar ist.

A must for camera repair enthusiasts

Kudos for updating this old apps after all these years. I was using it, back in the days, on my iphone 3GS and it was sub-optimal due in great part to the tiny screen. Now, with the peaks auto-detection, it is really good. It helped me a great deal in adjusting the shutter speeds of my Syncro-Conpur. If I may make a suggestion, it would be nice if we could see the milliseconds in the camera profile.

Ruined it

It no longer records shutter speeds longer than 1/2 second correctly, and the interface is now far less intuitive. You’ve crippled a very capable app. Why? Update in response to developer: when I attempt to measure 1 second, it gives a nonsense value, usually in the range of 1/400th to 1/600th second. That’s what I mean when I say it no longer works for 1 second exposures.
Developer responds to say they don’t understand my problem, very dismissive.

Top Update 👍🏼

Man kann jetzt auch manuell die Grafik kleiner oder größer machen und auch die Markierungen nach dem automatischen Mess-Ergebnis korrigieren.

Somit ist die App mit dem Photo Plug Zubehör jetzt absolut top.

Was noch fehlt, ist die 1000 Verschlusszeit. Vielleicht kommt das ja noch. Für die Dokumentation beim abspeichern wäre das wichtig.

FAQ

What does the Shutter-Speed app do?

The Shutter-Speed app allows you to test the shutter speeds of your analog cameras using your iPhone. It can analyze the sound of the shutter for speeds below 1/30sec or use a PhotoPlug accessory for more accurate light measurements up to 1/500sec.

How do I get the most accurate shutter speed measurements?

For the most accurate measurements, it is recommended to use the app in combination with the PhotoPlug accessory. This optical sensor connects to your iPhone's headphone jack and measures the light passing through the shutter.

Is the PhotoPlug accessory included with the app?

No, the PhotoPlug accessory is not included with the app. It is a separate purchase. You can find more information and order it from www.filmomat.eu.

Can I use the app without the PhotoPlug?

Yes, you can use the app without the PhotoPlug. In this mode, the app will record the sound of the camera shutter and calculate the shutter speed. However, this method is only reliable for speeds below 1/30sec.

What kind of information does the app provide about shutter speed accuracy?

The app analyzes the measured shutter speed and provides a correction factor if the shutter is faulty. For example, it can tell you if your shutter speed is too long or too short, and by how much in terms of f-stops, allowing you to compensate for accurate exposure.
