This is a great app!
Thank you for creating this. Well worth it.
I have many older vintage cameras and having this app on my phone, which is ever present on me, is a lifesaver! It has appeared to be very accurate and easy to use!
Excellent functionality, clear layout, intuitive interface, and very cost effective. Highly recommended if you're considering it.
Even on days I’m not taking a camera out I love using this app to get a grasp of the light. Lets me shoot all of vintage stuff without worry
I’ve been a photographer for more than 60 years and this app is one of the best handheld light meters I have ever used. It is so well thought out and accurate it has found a permanent place in my shooting experience. Give it a try - it may just change your life.
A great app for film camera users. Like having the best light meter without having to pack an extra piece of gear!
Love the app
I love it!
I love using this app with my grandfather’s Rollei TLR & I’ve gotten great photos!
I am a 4x5 large-format wilderness landscape photographer and have used this A LOT for a few years now after my spot meter died and finding a replacement. It has never let me down with bad readings, totally capable of nailing the proper exposure! Whether you want it to be your main light meter or just have it to save your butt in a pinch, I highly recommend!
