LightMeter app - looking for 10 beta tester
Hi everyone,
I am looking for 12 beta testers for my photography/cinema light meter app for Android.
DM me your gmail address if you're interested to try so I can authorize your tester account. Here the link to the app (only accessible once i registered your email address) : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.LightMeterAg
I'd be happy to help other app developpers in return.
LightMeter Ag App features :
- Incident metering — uses the phone's ambient light sensor with extended capabilities in low light mode
- Reflected metering — uses the rear camera (Camera2 API) with a live viewfinder and metering overlay
- Photo / Cinema mode — a single toggle that reconfigures all three wheels at once: in Cinema mode, the shutter wheel shows cinematic speeds (frame-rate based), aperture switches to T-stops, and ISO loads cine stock presets; in Photo mode everything reverts to standard still photography values.
- Deep preset library — every wheel can be locked to a specific real-world piece of gear: still camera bodies and cine camera frame rates for shutter, photo and cine lens brands/models for aperture, and an extensive film stock list (photo and motion picture stocks across Super 8, 16mm, Super 16 and 35mm formats) for ISO.
- EV + Lux display — real-time exposure value and lux reading shown prominently
- Three-wheel picker (ISO / Aperture / Shutter) — scroll wheels with a physical instrument feel
- AUTO/SET lock system — AUTO ISO/Shutter/Aperture computed by the meter
- EV lock — freeze the current reading to work with it manually + 3 memory slots
- ND filter calculator — select an ND filter (up to ND 4.5 / 15 stops); exposure is adjusted automatically
- Exposure compensation — ±6 stops slider, saved automatically
- Color filter compensation — accounts for the light reduction of photographic color filters
- Reciprocity failure calculator — corrects long-exposure times for specific film stocks
- Depth of Field calculator — uses focal length, aperture, distance, and sensor format; can import AF distance from the camera
- Focal length & sensor format selector — supports photo and cine formats
- Daylight Reference (Sunny 16) — table of classic exposure rules from Sunny 16 to Golden Hour
- Multi-point sensor calibration — non-linear curve calibration, independently adjustable for incident and reflected modes, with export/import of calibration profiles
- 8-language support — EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, PT, ZH, JA
