For a complete list of features, head over to SetMyCamera.com. This basic version has all the essentials to start exploring camera settings. What is SetMyCamera? SetMyCamera is the ultimate photography app for all your photography needs. Whether you are a pro or a beginner, use digital or film cameras, capturing videos or photos, SetMyCamera has you covered. SetMyCamera offers a range of features, including depth of field, composition assistance, light metering, print resolutions, flash settings, and more. You can even learn about reciprocity, field of view, angle of view, depth of field, f/stop, shutter speed, ISO, and hyperfocal distances. SetMyCamera also supports accessories like filters, diopters, bellows, speed boosters, extension tubes, and teleconverters. SetMyCamera has an in-app tutorial to help you get started. Settings are easily adjusted using a thumbwheel or slider, and animated graphics make learning a breeze. Here are some SetMyCamera features: Traditional depth of field: This feature helps you find the perfect depth of field by entering aperture (f/stop) and subject distance. An animated graphic shows what you are setting. Reverse depth of field: This unique feature lets you set the perfect aperture (f/stop) or lens focal length by entering the near and far in-focus distances. An animated graphic helps you visualize the settings. Light meter: This handy tool measures the available ambient light, whether it’s the light the camera sees or the light that falls on the subject. It even includes a sunny 16 light guide. Photo shoot notes: The built-in notes database is perfect for your photo shoots to make your photography experience easier and more organized. Print size calculator: This tool helps you convert your photos into high-quality prints based on your camera. Field of view visualizer: This feature enables you to preview your photo capture. It utilizes your iPhone or iPad’s camera and offers various options, including histograms, the rule of thirds, hot spot detection, and adjustable exposure settings. Angle of view calculator: This tool helps you position your camera according to the lens and subject, considering the camera distance. Flash configuration: This tool eliminates the guesswork when setting up flash photos. Exposure value, neutral density filter, and reciprocity calculations: SetMyCamera can also calculate these values for you. Shutter speed recommendations: This tool helps you choose the right shutter speed to avoid blurry photos. Standard conversion information: SetMyCamera includes standard conversion information for cameras and field information. A wide range of cameras and settings: SetMyCamera has an extensive list of pre-defined cameras or you can define your own. Included is support for both Imperial and Metric units. User-Friendly: Customizable interface with selectable themes including dark mode, and support for over 30 languages. SetMyCamera is compatible with iPhone and iPad. On iPhone, an Apple Watch app is included. A MacOS version is available for your desktop or laptop. Some features may require in-app purchases.

Consider bying new lens? Need to work the math for a perfect shot? Use this depth of field and circle of confusion calculator to simulate the out of focus blur, depth of field and hyperfocal distance for different camera configurations, including the diffraction effect for small apertures. The blur values are measured in the pixels of the camera sensor. The blur simulation shows how much the infinity and the object will be blurred as seen on a 25 cm or 10 inch printout or screen. You can tap on the magnifying glass to switch between full frame view, to asses the size of objects, and 1/10 of the frame view, where you can evaluate the blur. The parameters are: *Distance* - distance to the object, *Lens type* - focal length, *F-number* - aperture setting, *Focus distance* - distance the lens is focused at, *Sensor* - the megapixel count of the matrix and the camera sensor size. You can use the *HYPERFOCAL* mode to set the focus value to the hyperfocal distance for the current F value. If you want to have both the object and the infinity in focus, use *AUTO HYPERFOCAL* mode, it will find the minimal F and the corresponding focus value. *AUTO HYPERFOCAL* will try to achieve the best possible result, but due to the diffraction effect of small apertures it's not always possible to get a sharp image, the simulation will reflect this. The last smart function is *MAX BLUR FOCUS* - given an object distance and F-value it will suggest the closest focus value which will keep the object still in focus, while achieving maximum blur for the background. The idea is somewhat opposite of the hyperfocal shooting - here your focus point lies between the camera and the object with the depth of field ending on the object plane, ensuring the maximum possible blur for the background at your given F value. This works well if you are forced to use a relatively high F number, but there are no other objects in the view which are closer than the target. The standard *circle of confusion* used for DoF, smart focus and max blur calculations is the sensor diagonal divided by *1730*, which is the so called Zeiss formula.
