Exposure is a light meter (exposure meter) for film photography.
Point your phone at the subject and read off ready-made
shutter–aperture pairs for the film you loaded.
It replaces a built-in meter that died or drifted and the handheld meter you would rather not carry.
HOW IT WORKS
Set the ISO of your film and point the phone camera at the subject. At the bottom of the screen there is a sliding scale: the first row is the aperture number the second is the shutter speed matching the current exposure. Slide it horizontally to pick the pair you want — a fast shutter for movement or a wide aperture for a portrait. The exposure value (EV) is shown at the top of the screen.
FEATURES
• Real-time exposure metering
• Sliding scale of ready shutter–aperture pairs
• Exposure value (EV) on screen
• ISO from 25 to 3200
• Exposure compensation from −5 to +5 stops
• Pause to hold a reading
• A warning when there is too little light to meter accurately
FOR WHICH CAMERAS

FREE AND AD-FREE
No ads no subscriptions no sign-up. Works offline and takes less than 3 MB.
ABOUT ACCURACY
The reading comes from the phone camera so it can differ from a reference meter by a stop or two and the offset varies between phone models. Before an important shoot compare the reading with a digital camera or a handheld meter and set the exposure compensation if needed.
