Finally an app for for AC's and other filmmakers to stop wasting time with paper camera logs. No-one reads them anyway if they have 100's of paper logs to sort through. Use this app and get rid of all that paper waste and make it easy to share these logs with the whole camera team and any producer, editor, director, and of course DP. Also stop refilling the same info over and over again, the app fills out the generic info for you right away, you just fill it out for one log only once, and it recalls it for you each subsequent log and increments the Take field for you as well. Any field you want to change just change and it will be remembered again for the next log. When your all done with the day, just email the logs to the producer. Its as simple as that. The app also allows you to hide fields you don't want to see. So its very flexible for every filmmaker. Email us if you want to see something else that would be useful to you as well.

Metered turns your iPhone into a Light Meter, with intuitive controls, but it's also one that knows your camera and film. Pick your camera from a built-in library of classic bodies — Hasselblad 500C/M, Pentax 67, Nikon FM2, Rolleiflex, XPan, and dozens more — and the app meters within its real mechanical limits. Shutter readings never exceed what your camera can do, apertures never open wider than your lens, and the frame preview matches your film format and lens choice: 6×6, 6×7, 6×4.5, 3:2, even 65:24 panoramic. Add your own as well! Load a stock from the built-in film library — Portra, Tri-X, HP5, Velvia, Ektar, Acros — and your ISO is set; push or pull a stop and Metered tracks it automatically.
