Description
Designed by a photographer for photographers, focused on RELIABILITY and PRECISION for digital and analog photography.
• Extended sensitivity as low as -2/-4EV (dark scenes)
• Two different convenient interface designs.
• Incident and reflected light metering modes.
• Save exposure data.
• f/Tools connection.
• Independent calibration for the two metering modes.
• Independent selection of aperture, speed, ISO and exposure compensation with 1/3 resolution. From 4 minutes to 1/8000 sec., aperture from 1.0 to 512 and iso from 3 to 6400.
• Automatic priority for aperture or speed. (Automatic Av and Tv modes).
• Automatic ISO or locked ISO options.
• Point metering in camera view.
• Maximum aperture limited by the selected lens.
• Calculate the average of any number of measurements you want.
• Read the exposure data of any photo from the gallery.
• Calculate hyperfocal distance for 5 memorized lenses. Which also blocks maximum aperture.
• Memory for 5 lenses with maximum aperture, focal length and film/sensor size for calculating hyperfocal distance and aperture.
• Hyperfocal distance also for infrared light. (IR button)
• Exposure value EV on an analog scale or right up front.
• Two LED indicators show whether the measurement is unreliable due to lack of light in the scene, or if we have under 30% battery left.
• On 3.5 " displays preset lens buttons tilting the device or tapping at the bottom.
• Be advised that accurate incident light reading needs a diffuser attached to the front camera. Without the diffuser still can be used but think about it, it will be a reflected reading taken with the front camera.
I'm an independent photographer/designer/developer and am very grateful for your support. Trying to do the best lightmeter app ever, a lot more to come. You can ask for any improvement and I'll be happy to help. This app is constantly reviewed and improved because it is my tool, if you have any questions or suggestions feel free to contact me by email at davidquiles@me.com
Thank you!

Ratings and Reviews
Almost perfect!
An excellent app in every respect - fun to use and with excellent accuracy and setting options - except that the ‘ISO setting’ control, presently accessible on the front of the hand meter by simply swiping your finger up or down the screen - is too easy to accidentally change without realising it. It would be better to have the ISO setting control more deeply buried in the Pro screen or in Settings. This app will be used by film photographers, and film photographers don’t change their film’s ISO very often, and certainly never in mid-roll. Think back to a real old fashioned light meter and how relatively difficult it used to be to change the ASA/ISO setting; this app should be the same! Otherwise 5 Stars!
Tested
Readings seem close enough to my dslr meter.
The spot meter uses an incredibly large area of the photo instead of a spot making that mode unusable for me. Other apps can spot meter on a far smaller area of the image.
Hopefully an update to choose smaller areas to spot meter will come at some point.
Where’s 1/200? Where’s 1/25
Sorry - I can’t seem to find a support page or contact, so leaving my question here. I bought the Pro version to use with an Agfa Isolette, and I’m trying to set up a lens preset. The Isolette has the Agfa Agnar 1:4,5/85 with the shutter speeds being 1/200, 1/50, 1/25 or Bulb. The Aperture goes from f/32 to f/4.5. Setting the limits in presets I can set f/32 for the aperture, but can only set 1/250 for the shutter speed. Classic Mode - which is what I’d prefer to use, doesn’t have 200 - it goes from 125 to 250, so I have to guess in the middle somewhere, nor does it show f/4.5 - I have to guess in the middle of 5.6 and 4.
Having to guess so much kind of defeats the purpose of using a light meter. So, perhaps you can tell me the best presets for my camera?
