Description
Lightme - Logbook is a clean and powerful tool to record and keep track of your rolls, shots, developments, as well as gear and consumables (soon! :) ) that revolve around the process of shooting and developing film.
The aim of the project is to build something beautiful, yet very functional and immediate, with the goal of both reducing the effort taken to record each shot/roll as well as allowing a sufficient level of flexibility and covering various scenarios.
The app will offer a few key features, together with the main logging activity you may expect from a digital logbook:
• The possibility of reviewing the stored information in different aggregated forms, i.e. by allowing to build some interesting graphs/histogams based on fields and data filtered according to user-defined criteria.
• Data export for various "searches" in formats like json or csv
• A straight-forward way of keeping track of large format film-holders with three possible states (unloaded, loaded and exposed) and info about either the film or the shot that is inside them.
• Post development notes for rolls, sheets and shots, also allowing to add a further photo to record also the final results.
New very cool features will come in the future :)

Ratings and Reviews
Records metadata to scans
This is the most complete package I’ve seen.
My needs: I wanted to track metadata (GPS, Camera/Lens, Date, Time, ISO, Shutter, Aperture) as I took pictures on my film cameras. Then after receiving scans, apply that metadata so my pictures play nicely in the Photos App.
I was so surprised to see this app does it all! This removes the need for me to fumble around with exifTools to accomplish this.
This developer is my hero. Well worth the $12 a year this costs.
Developer Response ,
Hi! I'm super happy you've found your companion for your film adventures :)
I'm gonna keep trying to make both apps better and more useful!
Have a great day!

Logbook
Just a fwiw fyi - I love the light me meter app. This app is a brilliant idea. But. This app is not free. Download and you cannot use it without paying. I’m not saying it should be free. But it should be affordable. And people should know the price upfront. And maybe 30 days to try it without having to pay.
Developer Response ,
Hi! Thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it!
The app is offered on a paid subscription to enable me to keep maintaining and working on improving both the Logbook and Lightmeter app, I really don't want to abandon this project :/
The price is clearly stated in the app's onboarding procedure and a 7 day trial period is offered to every new user. I sometimes share offer codes for longer trial periods, try to reach out on ig if you feel like you need one :)
I feel like the price is fair, it's about a roll'a worth for one year. If you shoot often you can justify it easily, if you don't you could subscribe for only the months you actually shoot, anyway it will cost you less than pen and block notes (while being far more convenient).
Keep in mind you can share the subscription with your family, and you can access and export your data even without an active subscription.
Thanks again, I hope you have some good light!
Great app
It’s well thought out for recording film info. It even has bellows compensation.
Developer Response ,
Thanks a lot for the review! I hope you'll like the apps even more with the next updates :)
