Prima

Ich empfehle, den optimalen, persönlich akzeptablen CoC zu justieren: Zollstock in ein paar Meter Entfernung bei offener Blende fotografieren, bei 100% Ansicht den DOF ablesen, dann in der App den CoC so einstellen, dass die App etwa die gleiche DOF berechnet, die man im Bild gesehen hat. Das passt dann auch für alle anderen Wertekombinationen.

Simple et efficace

J’adore cette application et je l’utilise régulièrement pour la photographie.

On peut pré sélectionner jusqu’à 4 boîtiers photo, c’est super.

Elle est simple, visuelle et agréable à utiliser. Bravo au développeur.
