Hi everyone! I'm excited to share my first iOS app, Light Meter Express, now available on the App Store.
I'm the developer behind this app from Digitaino LLC, and I created Light Meter Express specifically for photographers who want precise exposure control using their iPhone's camera as a light meter.

What is Light Meter Express?
Light Meter Express transforms your iPhone into a professional light meter by analyzing the camera feed in real-time to calculate accurate exposure values (EV). It's designed for both film and digital photographers who want precise manual exposure control.
Free Features Include:
• Real-time EV calculation using your iPhone's camera
• Aperture, shutter speed, and ISO controls with 1/3-stop increments
• Exposure compensation adjustment
• Clean, professional interface optimized for quick readings
• Intuitive haptic feedback "detents" for full-stop increment values
• Full Dynamic Type accessibility support
Pro Features ($0.99 one-time purchase):
• Custom Step Increments - Choose between 1/3, 1/2, or full stop increments for all parameters to match your specific camera gear
• Live Histogram - Real-time histogram with RGB channel display for precise exposure analysis
• Preview Compensation - See exposure compensation effects directly in the camera preview
• Black & White Preview - Toggle monochrome preview for black and white photography visualization
• Custom Limits - Set aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and exposure compensation limits to match your equipment's capabilities
The app uses standard iOS design principles and integrates seamlessly with iOS accessibility features. All exposure calculations are performed on-device for instant results.
I designed this after being frustrated with existing light meter apps that either lacked precision or were overly complicated. Light Meter Express focuses on providing accurate, professional-grade light metering in a clean, easy-to-use interface.
Target Audience:
• Film photographers who need reliable light metering
• Digital photographers working in manual mode
• Photography students learning exposure fundamentals
• Anyone who wants precise exposure control
I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions! The app is actively maintained and I'm always looking to improve it based on user needs.
Thanks for checking it out!
