Shutter vs GetLightApp

With Shutter-Speed you can test the shutter speeds of your analog cameras just with your iPhone. Please note that the full potential of this App is only reached if you use it in combination with the PhotoPlug. The PhotoPlug is an optical sensor which connects to the headphone-jack of your iPhone and enables you to measure the actual amount of light passing through the camera shutter. Please visit www.filmomat.eu for detailed information and for ordering the PhotoPlug. How-To: Point the camera towards a bright light source. Place the PhotoPlug closely behind the camera shutter. Start the measurement and release the shutter. The App automatically analyzes the signal and calculates the shutter speed. All measurement values can be stored into a handy table. Multiple different cameras/lenses can be stored. A correction factor is calculated, which you can use to compensate a faulty shutter speed. For example, if you measure the 1/60s and it turns out to be 1/50s, the App will tell you that the shutter-speed is 1/3 stops too long. This gives rise to a correction factor of -1, indicating that you have to close your aperture by 1/3 f-stop to get a correct exposure. Without PhotoPlug, the App will record the sound of the camera shutter and calculate the shutter speed from that. Please note that this procedure will only give useable results for speeds below 1/30sec. With the PhotoPlug, shutter speeds up to 1/500sec can be measured.

GetLightApp shows you sunrise, sunset, and golden hour for wherever you are, anywhere in the world. Open it and instantly see where the sun is in your day and how much daylight is left. Use it to plan your day around the sun. BETTER SLEEP Morning and evening light are how your body knows what time it is. Getting outside into natural light within the first hour after waking sets your internal clock and quietly starts the timer for that night's sleepiness. In the evening, softer and dimmer light tells your body that night is coming. GetLightApp tells you exactly when your local sunrise and sunset happen, so you can catch morning light and wind down at the right time. Bright light in the morning, dim light at night. BETTER PHOTOS Golden hour, the stretch just after sunrise and before sunset, is the light photographers chase. The sun sits low, the light goes warm and soft, shadows stretch out long and gentle, and faces and landscapes pick up a flattering glow that midday light bleaches away. GetLightApp shows you when golden hour begins and ends so you never miss it. Shoot early, shoot late, skip the middle. DAY AND NIGHT As the sun goes down, GetLightApp shifts into night mode and traces the moon's path across the sky, showing the current moon phase from new moon to full and back. A quick glance tells you how much moonlight to expect tonight.
