Update: Now available for download on the Play Store.
Over the last six months I have been developing an Android app to aid in my film photography. I now use it every time I go out shooting and am making it free for everyone to use.
Analog Photography Assistant
Analog Photography Assistant is a free, ad-free, privacy-first app with the following features:
- Light Meter – meter scenes with your phone. Set the ISO of the film you’re using and get aperture and shutter speed combinations.
- Reciprocity Calculator – select the film you’re shooting on, enter the metered exposure for a scene, and this calculator factors in the reciprocity failure of the film and calculates the real exposure time.
- Compass – get your bearings.
- Black and White Preview – see what’s in front of you in black and white.
- Notes – free text notes with one-press shortcuts to insert the current time and GPS coordinates.
- Settings – configure APA to fit your way of working.
I’m in the process of publishing it to the Play Store and I need beta testers. Email me analogphotographyassistant@gmail.com and I’ll add you to the testers list. Keen to hear your feedback.
