Comments on Shutter-Speed for Android

★★★★☆ Wendy Stone · Jan 7, 2023
Works well for my older, mechanical shutters. Only using the 'sound' version right now since large format cameras rarely use speeds over 1/30 second. Took me a few minutes to figure it out, but most of my camera shutters take MUCH longer 😃
★★★★☆ Bryan C · Feb 26, 2023
Very useful app once you get the right hardware to go with it. You can use it without the photo plug, but you are very limited in range of shutter speeds that can be accurately measured. The only additions I would request are, adding a 1000/1 option and some way to automate the shutter speed testing routine, so you don't have to scroll through the list of speeds every time you measure. The app is well worth whatever I paid for it, I bought it so long ago I can't remember what it cost.
★★★★☆ Ron Powers · Feb 16, 2022
If you buy the photo plug optical interface this app works accurately. However, it is cumbersome to use as you have to input the desired shutter speed each and every time. Just checking any single lens or camera is a very slow process. It would be great if the developer would update the software to allow more automated measurements. A direct readout of the measured shutter speed would make this very competitive, for which I would be willing to pay as much as $20.
★★☆☆☆ DANIEL VONK · May 20, 2015
Doesn't seem to work right. Doesn't seem to work very well on my Zeiss ikoflex.shutter speed to choose is 125/250/500...
★☆☆☆☆ A Google user · Nov 7, 2018
Tried this with my Rolleiflex TLR, using sound measurement method. I could find no consistent way of identifying the "peaks" that indicate the opening and closing of the shutter, at speeds from 1/500 to 1/30, the only ones I generally use. And most measurements were wildly off -- I've used this camera for years, and I know the speeds are fairly accurate. Maybe I could get more accurate measurements by buying the Photoplug, but I'm not going to spend $29 to find out. A waste of 99 cents!
★☆☆☆☆ Adam Cotton · Feb 8, 2026
Totally incoherent readings from shutter speed. Test the same shutter speed five times, and you will get five wildly different readings. Just a low effort at coding to handle the audio.
★☆☆☆☆ Stephen Dean · Mar 17, 2025
Measures shutter. Does not work. It is a struggle to reset the app. Good thing it does not cost money
★★☆☆☆ stephen crowningshield · Jun 5, 2018
Had I given it any real thought I would not even spend the dollar? A slr makes all kinds of internal noise, mostly the mirror. You can't separate shutter from mirror sound.

Description by Filmomat GmbH Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Shutter-Speed works together with the PhotoPlug - a small sensor which connects to the headphone jack of your smartphone. If your smartphone has no headphone jack, you can use a TRRS adapter cable.
The sensor is available at www.filmomat.eu. There you also find further information about this App.

Together with the PhotoPlug, this App transforms your smartphone into an optical shutter speed tester for analog cameras. Just open the back of the camera, point the lens towards a bright light source and position the PhotoPlug behind the camera. Once you release the shutter, the App will display a waveform with two peaks: One peak when the shutter opens, another one when the shutter closes. The time between those peaks reassembles the shutter speed of your camera. The App also calculates a deviation value in f-stops and allows you to save measurements to your phone.

Acoustic mode: The App will also work without the optional PhotoPlug sensor. Without the sensor, the App records the sound of the camera shutter (shutter release sound). This works, because the shutter makes a noise when it opens and closes. Please note that this is only suitable for shutter speeds slower than 1/30sec. Faster speed will not give useable results.
