Light Meter Ultra

Not worth a subscription

Haven't try but it's cost u $$$ bummer

These light meter apps are basically accessing the abilities of your built-in camera and feeding the info to you. Apple would probably add this for free if there was enough demand, but most people using an iPhone have no need for an old film camera. In earlier days a clever programmer who was also a traditional photographer would build this app on their hobby time and give it away. Today, we’re conditioned to eternally subscribe to everything, owning nothing and being forever in debt. Yeah, that’s a screed that’s probably overblown for this innocuous app, and yet the pricing on this app is such an excellent example of how genuinely insane we’ve become. Happy shooting.

Says in app purchases. Which means you can still use it and there are also subscriptions available. It’s actually a subscription ONLY app and it’s freaking $16 a month. Should put that on the first page so this will go all the way to the bottom of the list where it belongs.

Listed as “free” but costs $4 per month. It’s cheaper to buy a portable light meter. At least you’d own it. This app is a subscription hostage taker like Adobe. Adobe is being investigated and charged for unfair pricing practices.

This app is simple for me to understand and I love that I can see both the average metering and the spot metering at the same time. Other apps I tried had so many buttons or sections that I could fumble around and miss a shot. This app never lets me down. I’ve entered my camera + the film stocks I have and it’s so easy to choose the film and get going. 💪

Excellent customer service and response. Solved my issue - my own fault - with two emails. Thank you! A++++

Subscription based waste of money.

Nice cool

Does not show 24fps. If you are going to put the word “film” in the description, you better have 24fps in it.
