## What is ShutterCue?

Lightning-fast camera settings reference.

Modern mirrorless cameras have hundreds of menu items. ShutterCue gives you a confident starting
point instead: pick your camera and lens, choose what you're shooting and the light you're in, and
get a ready-to-dial ISO, aperture, and shutter speed — plus the exact menu settings for the moment,
in your camera's own words, and plain-language advice on why.

No account. No internet required. Just fast, trustworthy answers in the field.

WHAT YOU GET
• A ready-to-dial exposure: ISO, aperture, and shutter, solved for your gear, scenario, and light.
• The right menu settings: AF-area mode, subject detection, drive/release mode, and metering —
  named the way your Nikon or Sony menus name them, and reconciled to what YOUR body supports.
• Plain-language advice: why these settings, and what to watch for (it'll tell you when ISO is pinned
  or the light is fading).
• Two ways in: "Dial It In" (you pick the gear) or "Gear Me Up" (tell it the subject, it suggests the
  body, lens, light, and time of day from your kit).
• Ask: a photography assistant you can type or talk to, grounded in your exact gear — ask it a
  question and it computes a real recommendation with the same engine as the Guide, it never guesses.
• My Gear: add the cameras and lenses you own and everything filters to what's in your bag.
• Profiles: save your favorite setups for one-tap recall.
• Tap any value to fine-tune it, and tap "Why these settings?" to learn the reasoning.
• Share a recommendation as text — perfect for notes, a shoot plan, or helping a friend.

20 SCENARIOS
Portrait, street, events & low light, parades & festivals, concerts, weddings, kids & pets,
landscape, wildlife, macro, waterfalls, birds in flight, aviation, sports, panning & motorsports,
astrophotography, fireworks, the moon, night cityscape, and aurora — each with its own exposure
approach (freeze the action, hold a tripod, or chase the 500-rule for stars) baked in.

BUILT FOR NIKON Z AND SONY ALPHA
ShutterCue covers 20 Nikon Z and Sony E bodies — from the Z5 and Z8 to the a7 III, a7 IV, a7C II,
a6400, a6700 and ZV-E10 II — and 71 lenses: NIKKOR Z and FTZ-adapted F-mount glass, Sony FE and E,
plus Sigma, Tamron, and Viltrox. It understands variable-aperture zooms, the crop factor on APS-C
bodies, in-body and lens stabilization, and how AF features differ across bodies and generations.

HOW IT WORKS
ShutterCue blends curated, photographer-authored knowledge with real exposure math (the APEX
exposure triangle, the reciprocal hand-shake rule, and the 500-rule for stars). Same gear + scenario
+ light always gives the same answer.

These are expert starting points, not a replacement for your light meter. Check your histogram —
ShutterCue gets you in the ballpark fast so you can spend your attention on the photograph.

Offline-first. Private by design — your gear and profiles stay on your device.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7.0 — 2026-10-28

Keep track of your kit: tap any camera or lens in My Gear to add its serial number, purchase date and a note. These stay on your phone. They're never uploaded and never sent with Ask questions.

Also new:
• Export your gear list as plain text, with serials, for insurance, travel or your records.
• Finished gear requests are easier to clear. Tap the X or swipe one away, clear them all at once, and Undo if you change your mind.

### 1.6.0 — 2026-10-27

Night mode for night shoots: a red-on-black theme that keeps your eyes dark-adapted for astro, aurora and city nights. Turn it on in Settings, or from the Guide when you pick a night-sky scenario.

Also new:
• New to ShutterCue? Setup now asks which camera you shoot and adds it to My Gear, so your first recommendation is for your body.
• Opens faster, especially on a slow connection.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-10-26

ShutterCue now supports Sony!

• Six Sony bodies: a7 III, a7 IV, a7C II, a6400, a6700 and ZV-E10 II
• 9 Sony FE and E lenses, plus E-mount Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 and Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 G2
• Settings in your camera's own words: Spot, Zone, Tracking, Creative Look, SteadyShot (and Flexible Spot and Lock-on AF on older bodies)
• Bird-in-flight settings use Sony's Bird recognition where your body has it

Nikon users: everything works as before, plus a corrected concerts tip for bodies without a mechanical shutter.

### 1.4.2 — 2026-10-26

Adds the Nikon AF-S DX 18-140mm (via FTZ) to the catalog, and "My requests" now shows a Someday status for gear on mounts we plan to support later. Plus under-the-hood updates for the latest iOS and Android.

### 1.4.1 — 2026-08-20

Sharper recommendations, smoother feel.

• More accurate settings in tricky light — in very dark scenes, ShutterCue now opens up the aperture before maxing out ISO, and is more honest when a tripod shot needs a clamp.
• A little more tactile — subtle haptic feedback when you pick your gear, scene, or light.
• Ask scrolls more naturally while you're reading, instead of yanking you back down.
• Bigger, easier taps across the gear bar and light picker.
