Description
***** Important Update for Magic Canon ViewFinder app ******
1. WE HAVE REWORKED THE APP. We were aware that older Android updates have caused issues with saving still images in the app. We are sorry and we want you to know – this is fixed now. We are rebuilding the app from the ground up to ensure full compatibility with the latest Android versions.
2. TEST THE NEW APP. The new app has less features than it used to have, but we are working to bring them back.
We especially need your confirmation that image capture is working reliably on your device. If saving photos works for you now, please let us know in a review or feedback — it helps us enormously.
3. WHAT FEATURES NEXT? The app 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.

Works well but doesn't really give you lens choices for less than 24 mm and there's only a certain amount of cameras you can use but still a really nice app

Wowa it's very nice and easy to use it. So try to use. You will see what we cal magic it's true magic ✨
★★★★★Robert Durma· Oct 12, 2024
Very nice app. I entered my camera sensor size, and the view I see at any final length matches very close to what I get on the camera. I use the app to quickly preview a potential shot and to determine depth of field. To get DOF, you just put in focal length, f-stop, and focus point, and it shows the DOF. Works great!

The app won't save the photos. Today I installed and took almost 10 photos with varying focal lengths to use for a storyboard of a project, and then I found that the photos are nowhere to be found. I did several tests and the photos don't get save anywhere. When I take a photo a message appears that says "processing" and it never ends. I try to take more photos but the same happens.

Worst app I've used people who say this helps must be idiots as this is useless
