Constant crashes! No landscape interface FOR PHOTOGRAPHY... HELLO!?! Do NOT spend your money!! If there's a way to get a refund, I want it!!! Doesn't hide the dock taking up valuable screen space. Giant yellow bar, "Film Photography Viewfinder" overlays right edge of pano formats (no appearent way to hide it). But the biggest problem is this is an app that's meant to be used in the field, possibly on your pano/landscape films (6x7, 6x7, 6x12, 6x17) and the interface can't rotate to landscape!!

This app is an absolute game-changer. As someone that shoots custom cameras and large format, it saves me time while composing and selecting a lens. It has tons of features, and the developer is constantly making improvements. I deleted several apps because this one made them redundant. It is 100% worth the money, and it can only get better. Looking forward to be able to set custom film stocks, that is one thing that is missing.

The app is worth the money. It works well on my Samsung S22+. I like the ability to add custom formats (such as half frame 4x5) and to customize the lens list to what you own. The film list for reciprocity calculations is heavy on Ilford and no Kodak films - I'm hoping future updates fix that. Another suggestion would be to allow viewing scene in B&W. I switched my camera settins but it didn't show up in the app.

Thank you for the review and using the app! I will add more filmstocks to reciprocity failure, Its coming soon. Im am currently working on adding light meter function and monochrome mode. Cant promise an estimate but I hope to be able to add this soon. I will look into Samsung S22+ why camera settings are not changing
