About this app

***** Important Update for Lumix ViewFinder app ******

1. WE ARE WORKING ON IT. We are aware that recent Android updates have caused issues with saving still images in the app. We are sorry and we want you to know – this is being actively fixed.
We are rebuilding the app from the ground up to ensure full compatibility with the latest Android versions.

2. TEST THE NEW BETA APP. A new version is already available for you to try as an Open Beta.

How to join the Open Beta:
-- Visit this app's Google Play listing
-- Scroll down to the "Join the beta" section near the bottom of the page
-- Tap "Join" and you will receive the updated beta version

We especially need your confirmation that image capture is working reliably on your device. If saving photos works for you in the beta, please let us know in a review or feedback — it helps us enormously.

3. WHAT FEATURES NEXT? The beta currently includes live camera preview, frame guides, and image capture. Many more features are on the way. If there is a feature from the current version that you rely on and would like to see prioritized, please tell us in your feedback. Your input directly shapes what we build next.

Thank you for your patience and loyalty.

==============================

• For a cinematographer: looking for an angle and view in your next shoot?
• For a director: creating your next storyboard?
• For a photographer: scouting for a shoot location?
• For a camera man: want to see your next shot framing without the camera in your hands?

Magic ViewFinder presents you a precise framing preview for the real camera/lens combination you will be shooting with, right where you stand with your phone/tablet. It simulates the framing of any Panasonic camera or lens and helps thousands of professionals in filmmaking or photography at the preproduction.

PLEASE READ: this app does not turn your smartphone into an external monitor, but operates as a stand-alone directors viewfinder.

If you have any issues please email us for a quick support: dev@kadru.net

The app is a digital director's viewfinder -- it helps you see the exact field of view for your future shot. Select the camera from the menu and rotate the wheel to select the focal length of the lens.

This app is AWESOME. Clean UI. Satisfying haptics. Lots of customizable settings. I have two questions though: I am using this app to simulate a GH2. In the bio, it says that this is a supported camera but in the drop-down menu, it only reads "4/3 cameras (GH3/G7/GF7)." Does this camera preset simulate the GH2 accurately? If so, I will be upgrading to premium which leads me to my next question - do I need to download the other app to get access to premium features or is it all within this app?

Thanks so much for your kind review. The camera setting "4/3 cameras (GH3/G7/GF7)" can be applied to both GH2 and GH3. The Premium Features are available thru an in-app purchase in 'About the App' menu option.

Used 480M of mobile data without permission. Over a year of inactivity, this app unknownly started using data when I checked data manager. Uninstalled and beware of this app. To your prompt reply to my concerns, can you explain why you need 480M of data over one day? (according to your app in my data manager). I wonder what your app or you looked into my mobile phone data???.

Greg, I'm a professional photographer myself and don't need anybody's data. I use a third-party module that collects 'technical data about your device', as it says in the Privacy Policy. Also I use Google's ad network for ad banners. The app itself doesn't need any internet traffic, only these add-ons do. Sorry about your experience.
