New in 3.3: sort your shots into projects, export a project report, and return to the exact position a frame was taken from.
FieldGlass is a professional viewfinder and location-scouting tool built for film photographers and filmmakers.
Open the camera, choose a format and lens, and see the real field of view of that format right on your phone — frame precisely before you ever pick up the heavy body.

CORE VIEWFINDING
• Live framing simulation: field of view computed precisely from film size and focal length
• Switch focal lengths instantly to compare compositions
• Widescreen ratios: 1.33:1, 1.85:1, 2.39:1 matte previews, with dual framelines for simultaneous framing
• Depth of field: aperture, focus distance and hyperfocal at a glance

• False Color exposure check: monitor-grade exposure evaluation
• Reference overlay: match a storyboard or scouting photo to reset the camera position precisely
• Photo and video: save framing references with full shooting parameters and an exposure record; the info bar includes a heading compass
• Calibration: aim at a target of known size in the live preview to measure and correct the field of view for greater accuracy
GEAR LIBRARY
• Built-in library: digital/film cinema cameras, still cameras, cine/large-format/photographic lenses and film formats — browse by category, search and view detailed specs
• Pick a specific body and lens: choose the exact camera model and lens while framing; the frame, info bar and shot record update to match
• Spec share cards: generate a branded spec card for any gear in one tap, easy to share and collect
• Custom cameras and lenses: add your own bodies and lenses, and export/import your whole kit
• Equipment package PDF: export a package as a PDF for printing or sharing
SHOOTING PLANNER
• Sun Planner: plan for your current or any location (pick on the map or search) — sunrise/sunset, golden-hour countdown, a sun/moon timeline and a light schedule
• Solar share card: generate a planning card with sunrise/sunset, a compass and hourly weather in one tap, easy to share and keep
• Moon data: phase, moonrise/moonset times and directions
• Weather integration: hourly cloud cover and temperature (data from Apple Weather), with sunrise/sunset glow probability
• Shot Map: located photos and videos shown on a map by where they were taken, to revisit any position
PRIVACY FIRST
• Core viewfinding runs entirely offline
• Weather and place-name lookup use only Apple's own services, never any third party
• No user data collected, no ads, no analytics, no third-party SDKs
• Your photos and videos stay only on your device
Whether you're a landscape photographer scouting a spot or a director previewing a shot, FieldGlass helps you see the final image before you press the shutter.

v3.3
• Projects: sort your shots into projects and star the ones that matter. You can also pick which project the next shot goes into.
• Project report: export a project as a PDF — lens and format only, every reading, or just the starred shots. Leave the location out with one switch.
• Full-screen viewer: tap a photo to fill the screen, swipe between shots, pinch or double-tap to zoom.
• Volume-button shutter: on iOS 18 and later, the volume buttons and Camera Control take the shot.
• Return to this position: tap it in a photo's details and the viewfinder restores that format, lens and movements, then fades the photo over the live image so you can line it up. A banner shows how far the spot is and which way.
• The sun at a chosen moment: pick a date and time in the Sun Planner, tap "see this moment in the viewfinder", and that is the sun you get.
