Cutvey Viewfinder vs Cinevisor

Cutvey Viewfinder shows directors, cinematographers and camera crews the frame of the camera and lens they are shooting on, live on iPhone and iPad, wherever they are standing: on the tech scout, in the production office or on set. Try every lens in the package, plan for the light, block the scene with stand-ins and leave with a shot list the whole crew can read. SEE THE SHOT Frame any combination of camera, recording mode and lens, live, in the shape it will record. Work in spherical or anamorphic, cine, broadcast, stills or film, from 722 camera bodies with 2,309 recording modes and 707 lens series with 3,926 lenses. Trust the frame lines: sensor sizes and lens data come from the manufacturers' own specifications wherever available, and the frame is worked out from your iPhone or iPad's own field of view. The app picks the right built-in camera for each lens and draws a clear band wherever a lens is wider than the device can see. Add your own cameras, lenses and adapters, and name your lenses: the hero 50, the soft 32. YOUR WHOLE LENS PACKAGE See every lens in your kit as frame lines on a single picture with Overview, and settle on the 32 or the 40 before anyone opens a case. Mix primes from different sets, add a speed booster or an extender, and save the package as a favorite. LIGHT AND LOOK See the sun's path over the location, hour by hour, with golden and blue hour to the minute, and plan a place you haven't been yet from its coordinates, on any day of the year. Grade live with lift, gamma and gain wheels, temperature and tint, your own .cube LUTs and Photoshop curves, then save a look and bring it back on the shoot day. BLOCK AND PLAN Place stand-in figures sized for the lens and the distance. Check depth of field for the lens and stop you're on: near, far, total and hyperfocal, in meters or feet. Frame for vertical delivery with a true 9:16 viewfinder, cropped from the wide frame or with the camera turned on its side. EVERY SHOT REMEMBERS ITS LENS Capture stills and takes with frame lines, each still with an info strip and the camera, lens and field of view written into its file. Organize them by project and scene, trim takes and add title cards. Export a PDF shot list as a contact sheet, two to a page, or one to a page with time, GPS, bearing and a map code. ON EVERY DEVICE YOU CARRY Scout with iPhone in your pocket, then go through the day on iPad's large display with your DP. Use iPad in landscape, or upright in vertical mode, alongside your other apps. On Apple Watch, fire the shutter, start a take and step through your lenses with the Digital Crown. Send a clean feed to an external monitor or an AirPlay screen for the whole room. PART OF CUTVEY On the same scout, Cutvey Meter reads the light and tracks the sun. Cutvey Teleprompter puts the script in front of the lens on the shoot day. Cutvey Offload for Mac copies and verifies the cards when the day wraps, and the Cutvey app runs the production office behind all of it. THE FINE PRINT Cutvey Viewfinder is a viewfinder, not the camera. The frame is as accurate as its sources: devices vary a little from one to the next, and a lens's marked focal length is nominal. MEASURE in Settings tunes it to your device. Where a drone or action-camera maker publishes only a field of view, the frame follows it. Depth of field is a convention, not a measurement, and focus breathing isn't modeled. Camera and lens names are trademarks of their respective owners, used only to identify the equipment. One purchase unlocks it for good, or sign in with an active Cutvey membership. No ads. No third-party tracking. Your shots, notes and locations stay on your devices unless you share them. Available in 41 languages. Made by filmmakers in Orlando, Florida. Privacy Policy: https://cutvey.com/legal/privacy App License Agreement: https://cutvey.com/legal/app-license

Cinevisor is a director's viewfinder that doesn't stop at the frame. Pick the camera body, sensor mode, lens set and lens you're actually shooting on. The phone's camera is cropped and zoomed to match that rig's real field of view, so what you see on screen is what the lens will see. Framelines, safe areas, anamorphic desqueeze and a HUD with focal length, T-stop and field of view — all of it running on the device, offline, free. Then tap the shutter and take it one step further: describe the light you want, and Cinevisor renders your exact frame with that lighting, that depth of field and that film look. Not a stock photo, not a mood board — your location, your framing, lit the way you're pitching it. THE VIEWFINDER • Real field-of-view matching from the sensor mode and focal length, not an approximation • Camera bodies, sensor modes and lens sets from the manufacturers' own specifications • Swipe through a lens set; the preview ramps to the next focal length • Framelines for multiple ratios at once, custom aspects, safe areas, adjustable opacity • Anamorphic squeeze factors from 1.25x to 2x, viewed desqueezed • Monospaced HUD: focal length, horizontal and vertical FOV, sensor mode, T-stop • Works with no signal. The viewfinder never needs the network. DEPTH OF FIELD FROM REAL OPTICS The blur isn't guessed. Cinevisor reads the scene's depth, then computes the circle of confusion from the rig you picked — focal length, T-stop, sensor size, focus distance — and renders the falloff from that. Change the T-stop and the background separates the way that lens would actually separate it, with round bokeh on the highlights. THE AI LOOK • Describe the lighting in plain words: "early morning, sun through the window", "overcast soft", "sodium vapor at night" • Film stock and look presets, key direction, atmosphere, grain and halation • Your composition, your people and your architecture stay exactly where they are • Before/after slider on every render • Save to a project, export with the rig metadata, or share PROJECTS Organize captures by project and shot. Every frame keeps its rig: camera, sensor mode, lens, T-stop, framelines, location and time. Re-render any shot later with a different look. CREDITS The viewfinder, the framelines, the depth-of-field maths and the projects are free and unlimited. Only the AI renders cost credits, because only they cost real compute. One render, one credit. Credits never expire, they're tied to your Apple Account, and renders that fail are refunded automatically. Unlock Cinevisor once for 30 renders, and buy more in packs of 30, 60 or 120 whenever you need them. There is no subscription. PRIVACY The viewfinder runs entirely on your phone — nothing leaves the device while you're framing. A photo is uploaded only when you tap Render, and only then. We ask for your permission before the first upload, in plain language, and the image is processed and discarded rather than stored on our servers. ABOUT THE RENDERS Renders are generated by an AI model from the frame you captured. They are a visualization of intent, not a photograph of what was there. Treat them the way you'd treat a concept frame in a lookbook. Made by a working filmmaker, for scouts, prep and the conversation where you have to show someone what you mean.
