Needs an update badly
I’m new to this app and honestly impressed, but it’s insane that there is no way to lock settings - I just want to be able to lock my ISO, aperture and Zone and then measure without any of those changing. That’s an easy update, and would make this the best spot meter app on the market. I’m always metering the shadows for zone 3 at ISO 100! Make it easy for me, guys!

Excellent potential but switches modes for no reason.
I was hoping to use this spot meter for determining the zones using the zone system. Every time I try to dial in the zone I want to set the reading to it switches from zones to ev compensation. There seems to be no way to keep from switching from one mode to the other. Too bad. It really has the potential to be a great tool.

Neat app but needs a bit of help.
It’s a neat app and pretty accurate. Only quibble would be the ability to keep a single f/stop displayed when switching between Zones. For example, if I meter a Zone III the f/stop is f0.7. I scroll to f16 or whatever and then go to meter a Zone VII and the f/stop reverts back to f0.7.
This would be great if you could pick a default f/stop that the app is set to when I open it.
Thanks.

The best spot meter app
Only one gripe: there is this prompt on the screen with flashing text about swiping to switch modes. I can’t find a way to disable this. Otherwise, this app is superb. If you’re traveling and need to leave your hand held meter at home to save space, this app is perfect.
Clean interface, accurate and easily defined spot area. The people who developed this app know what they’re doing.

Superb light meter! Great for analogue
I have used A LOT of light meter apps for analogue photography and especially assisting in mastering zone metering. This app makes it MUCH easier as you can set the zone you want to place the measured light and it will show you the correct exposure. Being able to view the scene in black and white whilst measuring the light really allows you to see the zones properly and make a much better measurement.
I would love 1 thing - a description of the zone - i.e IV - average dark foliage, landscape shadow etc. It helps when choosing the correct zone

Best Light Meter App
Needed a light meter app to meter using the zone system and this makes spot metering and calculations so much easier because it has built in support for it.

Aucune explication sur le zone système
Très bien
Je l’utilise pour le zone system et en suis très satisfait.
Waited for such an app for sooo long!
A very practical alternative to the “real” spot meter, which has a miniscule fraction of weight, size and price. You can meter highlights and shadows to determine needed exposure in your head the oldschool way, but you can also meter any spot and place it to any zone (of Adams’s Zone System fame) and see how it affects exposure if you’re not experienced with such calculations. Simple and straightforward, no stupid vintage-inspired design, like scratched wiewfinder emulation or weird “analogue” controls, only the real deal. To the best of my knowledge it’s the only app that can measure two-degree spot, and the only problem I have with it, is that It should have existed a long time ago :)
