Essential photography Apps? Your List?

[pjd]

I use the following on Android:

Shutter-Speed tester (with photo diode gadget). I use some rather old shutters, it picked up a few problems.

Film Crop Assistant. Not much use with wide angle lenses (field of view bigger than the screen), but sometimes sort of useful.

iPhone
Reciprocity Timer (great!)
Pocket Light Meter
Sun Seeker

I'm not a Luddite, but I use very few apps for photography. Reciprocity gets tested and printed on charts and goes into my notebook; same with bellows extension, filter factors, etc. I prefer my 1° spot meter to any of the metering apps I have seen (although I do have one that lives on my phone just in case). I use a viewing filter for framing/composing that's a lot more convenient that any viewfinder app.

I do like Lukas Fritz's "Shutter Speed" and use it to check my shutters every few months. I also have an app called simply "Moon" that will give me the phase of the moon and a compass bearing and time for moonrise and moonset that I use. It has saved me from having to get up too early several times

Best,

Doremus

I also use the Mark II Veiwfinder app. I find it useful in deciding which lens to use and a rough idea of composition. I can only hope my techno- widget use (apps,camera,light meter) has not destroyed what ever chance I had in making a expressive image.

The viewfinder app seems interesting, but from I understand, you need additional wide angle converter for the iPhone?

I use ExpoDev on my iPad.

With the Mark II Viewfinder set for a 4x5 camera, the widest lens I can put in is 125mm. Any wider and I need to add a wide angle converter to the phone.

Skill of craft.

inspired creativity used to express an idea.

Film, Lens, Camera, light meter, tripod, case, post process to the finished print.

Expressive images are made by an individual not apps or related techno-widget helper.

Me too, which doesn't exclude useful apps or nasty things like "digital" light meters in my universe.

Reciprocity timer is the one app I use the most for my art. Email and phone are the ones most useful in my photo business as they allow me to stay in touch with clients while I play hookie from the commercial photography and work on my art.
