I'd like to see update to modern cameras (e.g., no Nikon Z cameras in the list). Also, selection of lens focal distance with 1 mm step, as well as other "non-standard" aperture values (like 0.95, 1.2, 2.5). In other words it is better just to input the values rather than selecting from predefined lists. BTW, a simpler search in Google Play of Phototools doesn't find it

Can't speak for all cameras but this app was not accurate for DOF calculations involving D5100 or generic 1.5 crop sensors. Compared with my cheat sheet I created and use which I know to be accurate. Update 4/12/17 - tried it again and compared the calculations to an online calculator. Seems to be spot on now. I will test drive the app and give it a fair shake.

Log/Log, Lin/Log etc. scaling option for histograms would be nice. Extol implementation as well, so one could extract the Maker Notes.

Thank you for the June 2017 update and restoring the weather and moon. A very well created and supported app

Good information calculator. Color scheme of print/background makes the dropdowns difficult to read. Seems odd for a photography app that focuses on presentation. Moon phase information fails to open.

This app is a gem. The best of its kind, it's so rich. I only wish It had more than Canon/Nikon camera brands in its presets. Please consider adding more brands even the now extinct Samsung NX1 ;)

Useless, black text on dark gray background in the dropdown menus makes it unreadable.....
★★☆☆☆Gerald Murphy· Oct 3, 2018
Doesn't support Pentax cameras or lenses and doesn't allow such cameras if added to be properly configured.
