Description of Camera Light Meter [1.2.0]
Camera Light Meter [1.2.0] updated on Wednesday September 16, 2020 is the Photography for Android developed by Lasse Midtseim
Camera Light Meter is a photographic reflective exposure meter that uses the Android camera for exposure metering (by reading the exif). This app is useful for photographers using an analogue/film camera without a light meter.
Features:
– Simple user interface
– Zoom for spot metering (supported on most devices)
– Remembers and applies your last used ISO to new exposure readings
– Wide range of camera settings makes this app useful for pinhole or low sensitivity film/paper (you must still remember to manually compensate for reciprocity failure)
– ISO 1.6 to 25600
– Shutterspeed 1/8000 to 16 minutes
– Aperture f/1024 to f/0.7
Before using this app in the field for the first time, or on a new device, it’s a good idea to verify the exposure using another light meter or a digital camera. This is to make sure that metering works as expected on your device.
