"One of the most useful apps for any nature photographer" - Outdoor Photographer Magazine

The Photographer's Ephemeris (TPE) helps plan outdoor photography shoots in natural light, particularly landscape and urban scenes. It's a map-centric Sun, Moon and Milky Way calculator: see how the light will fall on the land, day or night, for any location on earth.

Whether you need at-a-glance information on today's sun, moon and Milky Way data for your current location, or need to plan a precise alignment of the full moon for a future shoot, TPE has the tools you need. The combination of augmented reality, line-of-sight analysis and visual search supports the most sophisticated photo planning needs.

Night mode features a 3D representation of the Milky Way, pole stars and major constellations directly over the map, so you can easily visualize exactly how to align your shot.

Research and save your own list of favorite photographic locations, using 7 different map types (including 2 offline maps) and save them in your locations list. Favorite locations are always displayed right on the map.

Advanced features including visual sun and moon search, automatic time zone and elevation detection, correction for atmospheric refraction and height above the horizon, ensuring that you have the best possible information for planning your shoot.

You can even determine when the sun or moon will rise from behind nearby hills and mountains.

Key features:

- Time/direction of sun, moon, and galactic center rise/set
- View azimuth and altitude of sun/moon and the galactic center for any time of day/night

Strepitosa

La uso tutti i giorni per lavoro (organizzo viaggi fotografici in tutto il mondo), cerco orari e location per i miei scatti anche da fare in posti nei quali non sono mai stato e preparare tutto alla perfezione senza lasciare nulla al caso. Indispensabile l’uso combinato con TPE3d e Photo Transit. Il pacchetto completo vale i soldi che costa ed è una app estremamente professionale e completa da usare. La consiglio a tutti

La prima nel suo genere, e ancora la migliore!

Se è la prima volte che utilizzate un’app del genere è caldamente consigliato leggersi la User Guide, ci sono moltissime funzioni e nessun dettaglio è stato trascurato. Oramai la uso come parte integrate della pianificazione dei viaggi, anche se non dovessi portarmi dietro una macchina fotografica! Ma che cosa fa? Un sacco di cose! Per dire solo le più comuni, vi permette di sapere a che se, dove e a che ora sorgerà o tramonterà il sole, la luna, la via latte, che tipo di ombra proietteranno sul suolo, quanto inquinamento luminoso ci sarà, e così via!

Non funziona

L'applicazione sarebbe anche utile se funzionasse. Sono riuscito ad aprirla solo una volta, per il resto del tempo l'app va sempre in caricamento ma non si aggiorna mai. L'ho pagata 9,99€ insomma, un vera vergogna

Spettacolare

Fantastica!!

Greta app

Greta app for plannig shots in advance!

Da avere

Un programma indispensabile per chi ama la fotografia

mah...

l’app è probabilmente molto completa ma un po’ lo schermo piccolo di iphone e un po’ la scarsa (per me) intuitività del software, hanno finito per convincermi a non usarlo e con quel che costa non è una gran bella notizia. ultimamente mi preparo la serie di scatti usando la versione web (il giorno prima) per poi segnarmi i dati necessari su ‘note’.

Quasi Perfetta/ almost perfect

Fa tutto quel che promette , un po' macchinosa l'interfaccia in certi casi, ma è più un problema delle dimensioni del monitor dell'iPhone...

Useful

I've already used for one year on my Mac, now it seems to have the Mac on my pocket. Just perfect!

Il top fino a poco tempo fa

Da oggi c'é una valida alternativa a questa app. Con photopills ho praticamente le stesse funzioni,più curate e con tantissime altre features. Tpe ha l'unico vantaggio che si puó utilizzare anche su Mac! 4 stelline con la speranza che si aggiorni anch'esse introducendo novitá!
