Silverlog Reciprocity
Film Long Exposure Calculator
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Compensate for reciprocity failure in seconds. Select your film stock, enter your metered time, and get the corrected exposure instantly.
Silverlog Reciprocity calculates corrected exposure times for long exposures on film, compensating for reciprocity failure — the point where film loses sensitivity during extended exposures.
HOW IT WORKS
Select your film stock from a comprehensive database covering Kodak, Ilford, Fujifilm, Fomapan, CineStill, Lomography and more. Enter your metered exposure time and instantly see the compensated time you should actually use.
Calculations use manufacturer-published reciprocity data or established empirical formulas, and each correction shows which method was used: interpolation from a published data table, or a Schwarzschild exponent formula.
