Description

Are you a meticulous film photographer that prefers to record settings/locations for the film photos that you take? Are you looking for a simple and easy to use app for tracking and logging that information? Are you tired of the buggy, crash-prone, or convoluted photo logging apps currently available?

I happen to be all of those things. Which is why I developed MetaLog.

MetaLog is a simple yet powerful data logging utility for photographers who want to quickly record photo metadata for photo cataloging or EXIF tagging during post-processing. In addition to keeping track of the settings for each photo, MetaLog can also act as an equipment inventory for your gear.

Feature Highlights:

• See all of your added film rolls at a glance, including the number of frames added to each roll, as well as load/unload dates to show which rolls are still in use.
• Quickly log settings for each photo including date, lens, aperture, shutter speed, exposure compensation, as well as location coordinates, accessories, and notes about the shot.
• Intelligent pre-fill and filtering for dates, locations, and equipment, making adding new frames a snap.
• Easily manage multiple rolls loaded into multiple cameras simultaneously.
• Pinpoint photo locations with a simple and familiar pinch-and-zoom map interface.
• Export all logged data as convenient CSV files.
• Gear pages can record camera and lens models as well as serial numbers, allowing for a complete gear inventory that's handy for tracking and insurance.

Nearly perfect

It’s nearly perfect but it seems it still has a while to get there.

Regarding ease of use when taking pictures it’s very convenient. It remembers the settings of the previous frames and allows for quick intro of custom values.

However when exporting the data, several things can be improved. First, few details of the gear are being exported (missing camera/lens make, model or serial number) even though the app supports them. Also names of exported columns are not default EXIF tags, making it a pain to attach those values to the scanned images using tools like ExifTool.

Nearly perfect...

Best app of its kind I’ve found for iOS. The only thing missing is the ability to add a reference shot for each frame, which I am hoping will be added in future.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the positive review. You’ll be pleased to note that version 2.0 includes the ability to record a reference photo for each frame. This was actually something planned from the start (and v1 included the groundwork for this functionality in the code), but was difficult to get implemented in the earlier release. Progress has been made!
