beeCam Light Meter

★★★★★ Accurate Incident Light meter! Thank you FM-Bee for this reliable-accurate incident light meter app! I downloaded this FM-Bee free version on my Samsung S5. I took the light reading at the same spot, same angle (laying flat on the table) and from a same constant light source output of a 24w-cf with FM-Bee on Samsung S5, Sekonic -L398 (analog) and Sekonic L-308S (digital) The reading between the app on Samsung S5 and Sekonic L-398 were the same, and with the L-308S was 1/3 -1/2 less light. The reason was FM-Bee on Samsung S5 round up and the Sekonic L-308S show the reading in the 1/3 increment. For the Sekonic L-398 I paid around $125 (26 years ago), and L308S for $260 (11 years ago). I wrote those prices for some of you to appreciate this free app which is very useful and accurate.. Please when you use this FM-Bee app, remember this: This app is designed to take the reading as the INCIDENT LIGHT METER which light falls (comes) on the "object", not reflecting from the object. Thanks again FM-Bee Corp. for this free incident Light meter app. HoaiViet

★★★★★ Brilliant! Have not used an incident meter for years. This works, and can be so much more useful than the camera's reflective meter. Thanks! If you're not getting an accurate reading, make sure device is pointed right way. Meter on screen side of my phone.

★★☆☆☆ Infected.? I it keeps telling me so Adverts keep telling me that my phone is infected........ Why? Could it be this app is infected ? I. Am not willing to take the chance.

★★☆☆☆ No good I compared results with a real exposure meter and difference was 4-8 f-stops. Even guessing gives better results than this app.

★★☆☆☆ My reflected lightmeter, Sekonic L98, gives a reading of the grass at noon on a cloudless day of¦ iso 200, lux n/a, ev 16.5, aperture priority f16, time 1/250. My Minolta X-370 concurs with the lightmeter to use 1/250 at f16. My SCH 510 phone gives iso 200, lux 15000, ev 14, Aperture priority f16, time 1/60. My htc evo 3d gives iso 200, lux 10240, ev 13, Aperture priority f16, time 1/30. So it seems that incident readings will differ greatly depending on the quality of your phones light sensor.

★★☆☆☆ Couldn't get it to work correctly... I tried to get this app to work, but it wouldn't very often. Sometimes it would work, but others, especially in relatively low light it wouldn't give a reading. Because of this I've finally uninstalled the app.
