Cine Meter

This was a great, useful app that I actually found accurate and comprehensive enough for serious work. Loved it and used it often. But now when I try to open it on my iPhone XR, it crashes immediately. No error message, no explanation. Just shuts down. Disappointed to say the least!

Why create a new app and not upgrade the one I’ve PAID!!! Update: the developer returned a fair answer. Thanks. The new app should deserve 5* Not this one.

Why is this app essential? Because at some point in your progress as a cinematographer you reach the stage of giving your footage a filmic look through controlling lighting. It's all about key to fill and key to background lighting ratios. It's about knowing how to expose properly for skin. It requires looking at dynamic range. This app helps in so very many ways. I don't turn on a camera until I've spent at least 15 min walking around the setup. Top notch job in this app!

The app works fine for me as a photographer, but because some of the lenses I use are antique lenses and don't offer a great number of aperture values, I'd like to be able to set my aperture value on the app so that the calculated value would be the shutter speed, but please keep all values changeable and not just select which value (shutter/aperture) can/can't be set

I love how the dev of this app just stopped working on this and put out cine meter II instead of an upgrade to this app. Sheer greed. I won't be buying ANYTHING from this slimeball ever again. Edit: added a star because at least he is still updating this V1 app.

Back to the awesome 5 star app again! This is the light meter app you want if not using an incident meter.

Intriguing app, but can't lock white balance or exposure (iPhone 6, iOS 8.1) despite update that was intended to fix that bug.

Neither the exposure lock nor the white balance lock actually do anything. Also, sliding the ISO value or the shutter speed slider do anything to affect the live view as it seems they should. At least the spot meter works, but I'm certainly not upgrading for $16.99 more if these basics fail to work. So far, I've only wasted $4.99. iPhone 5, iOS 8.1

Absolutely incredible! Wilt has done an exceptional job in the creation of this app. For the most part - it is ‘spot’ on! Having a waveform monitor in your pocket, well… that’s like too cool! Next time you are out in the field with your engineer, pull this out and watch them whimper wishing they had one. Then - tell them the price and you’ll be their hero!

This is a great app when your learn how to use it. Quick reference for DP's and Cam ops!
