I have been using this app for years, and it works very well, with one exception. With the recent update that changed the look of the app, a function seems to have been lost. I use cameras with interchangeable backs, and also large format cameras that use film holders. I can no longer have more than one roll (or sheet film type) going for any camera, which means that I have had to set up my film backs and film holders as the cameras. I preferred it the way it was.

Hey there! Thanks for the note. As someone who also uses cameras with film backs/holders I'm very interested in addressing this problem for you. Can you please send me an email so we can see about getting this fixed for you? Thanks much.

I’ve tried every single photo logging/EXIF app that I could run on my phone and this is hands-down the best option. Using this _will_ improve your photography, you’ll be able to learn what exposure you prefer with different film stocks and you can keep track of which lenses you use the most. I have a lot of gear and I switch cameras/lenses constantly, this allows me to very easily check what camera/lens/exposure/location a photo had, when I get the scans back six months later and can’t remember a thing. The developer added an option for CSV export and it’s great, I store it with the scans on my computer so I never lose the “EXIF” for a given roll.

A few suggestions: it would be nice to be able to individually specify 1/3, 1/2, or whole stops for exposure comp and shutter defaults per camera, and the same for lens aperture. I have some cameras that have exposure comp in 1/2 stops (Nikon FE, notably). Also, adding a “0” in the exposure comp presets would be nice.

Overall, I love this app. It’s easy to use, reliable, let’s me track many, many cameras and lenses, and has fields for all the relevant info a session could have. Well done.

Thanks so much for the kind words! You'll be happy to know that v3 now supports aperture range selection for lenses, available on a per-lens basis.

I can’t add the lens for my Fujifilm GS645 Professional Fujica 6x4.5 Medium Format Rangefinder folding camera.
Admittedly I can’t change lenses, but in your app I can’t add the lens at all.
Is this something you can fix?
It uses a Fujinon 75mm f3.4 fixed lens.

Please contact me via email and we’ll see if we can get this fixed.

UPDATE: User never contacted me for support. No idea if this issue is real or user error.
