## Lghtmtr Description
"Lghtmtr is a beautifully simple light meter that helps you find — and understand — the ideal exposure settings for a scene.

Built for film photographers and anyone learning the craft, it makes the relationship between ISO, aperture, and shutter speed feel intuitive and the visual feedback helps reinforce the connection between them.

Take a reading, get your settings, and start exploring. Adjust one value and the others respond instantly. Lock settings to experiment and see how each change affects your exposure.

You can easily add camera profiles to the app to limit the possible values to what's most relevant to your camera and lens combination.

With a visual reference of the scene behind every reading, Lghtmtr helps you shoot with clarity and confidence."

## Lghtmtr Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great for Pentax"
Great for shooting Kodak gold. Great replacement for a broken light meter
-- inhindofsight, 2025-07-09

### **--- "Apps broken"
Love this app and have used it for over a year. Recently when I go to take a reading the screen is just black. I’ve tried reinstalling the app reenabling camera permissions, etc. So I think it’s an app issue. Hopefully they’ll get it fixed cause it’s a 5/5 app otherwise.
-- ivicfkc, 2025-05-15

### *---- "Awful"
I shoot film and all three rolls I shot with overexposed them. That’s a lot of money wasted because of your app not doing its job right, whoever makes this app, please look through whatever you are doing on it, because it does not work whatsoever.
-- Trist2234785, 2025-02-24

### *---- "???"
Can’t get it to work.
-- JohnnySC306, 2025-02-18

### ***** "It works!"
It works.  It’s simple.  It’s elegant.  It’s free.  It doesn’t spy on you.  I didn’t have to turn over my email address.  I didn’t have to make an account.  I didn’t have to watch an ad.  

This is the platonic ideal of an app.  Shout out to the developer.  You’re a real one.
-- Big Thief, 2025-01-11

### ****- "Yashica"
used it on for my yashica 124 g mat medium format does the job for beginners now im on a sekonic
-- GrandePen3trump, 2024-09-14

### **--- "Don’t understand"
If the far left column is film speed, why is it measured in inches?
-- jeff in vb, 2023-12-17

### ***** "Feature request"
I love this app for film photography and I think that there should be a feature that will save the image and the setting (shutter speed, aperture, ISO) used for it so when you get your negatives back, you can see what settings you used for each picture.
-- Slothmilk064, 2023-07-17

### ***** "Functional and Clean"
I have tried countless light metering apps and always come back to this one

Being able to snap a photo then tap and view/adjust the type of exposure I am after is so useful, instead of having to just get an overall even exposure I can dial it down to crush the blacks and get more contrast, this has been especially useful for getting night photography that is properly exposed in my opinion. 

The ability to set my ISO and lock it is plenty for me as from there I can just turn the aperture dial or the shutter speed dial to work in aperture or shutter priority modes. 

Taking a sample photo and working out my exposure from there is a much more pleasant work flow than the typical light meter app experience of constantly updating numbers where ever your phone is point in that exact moment. 

Truly able to get everything I need out of this app and it has been consistent and accurate across all of my cameras giving me great results.
-- masehun, 2022-10-26

### ***** "A simple gem"
I use a beautiful little vintage Olympus Pen F half-frame film camera. I’ve shot film for 50 years, and have a pretty good idea how to eyeball exposures. Having this ultra simple and quick exposure meter, however, is just perfect to confirm my settings. I see a few people here complaining that you can’t lock two metrics at the same time, but honestly for a nice easy-to-use free app, this works just fine. A dandy little freebie.
