Viewfinder Preview vs DevGlass

Viewfinder Preview is an iPhone app for previewing camera framing for any combination of camera and lens. Instead of spending all that time setting up your big camera, just choose your desired film/sensor size and focal length in the app and point the iPhone camera at what you want to photo to verify framing. If you are happy with the framing then you can get the big camera out. The app has a large database of camera sensors details and film formats but if the format you desire isn’t there you can add your own custom format. The app is targeted at stills photographers or film makers working in either film or digital. If you don’t have your big camera with you, Viewfinder Preview is still great for photo sketching, location scouting or story boarding. The app includes - Customisable menus so you can include the film/sensor formats and focal lengths you care about. - A fully configurable light meter. - You can take photos with it, so you have a record of shots you were framing. - Photos taken with the app include additional data that describe the film format, focal length and lighting meter settings at the time the shot was taken - Add notes to your photos - A photo gallery for viewing photos taken with the app which also displays the additional data - Share images in emails, messages - Create albums of photos from the same project, trip etc - Create PDF documents of albums - Film stock emulation - Wide angle lens adapter support

DevGlass is a film development reference and processing timer built for black & white film photographers. Whether you're developing your first roll or you're a seasoned darkroom hand, everything you need is at your fingertips — and it works completely offline. DEVELOPMENT DATABASE 308 films, 190 developers, and 11,849 development recipes built in. Filter by format (35mm, 120, sheet), pick your film and ISO, and get the exact development time and dilution. Most combinations include push/pull times. MULTI-STEP PROCESSING TIMER Start a full process with one tap. The timer guides you through every step — pre-soak, developer, stop bath, fixer, hypo clear, wash, and photo-flo. Each step can be enabled, disabled, or adjusted. Sound and haptic alerts mean you never miss a step, even face-down; progress shows on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, and the screen stays awake while timing. COLOR PROCESSING — C-41 / E-6 (new) Built-in C-41 and E-6 timer presets with continuous-agitation handling. The Color Process Guide lays out the standard steps, times, and precise temperatures for both processes. AGITATION REMINDERS Standard, continuous, minimal, and custom schemes. DevGlass nudges you with sound and vibration whenever it's time to agitate. COMPENSATION Temperature compensation (based on the Ilford formula), plus reciprocity and rotary compensation — your adjusted development time, calculated automatically. DILUTION CALCULATOR Quickly work out concentrate and water volumes. Common tank presets included (Paterson, Jobo, AP Compact), with custom volumes and any standard dilution ratio.
