CineBalance Camera Tools

CineBalance is a camera field toolkit for filmmakers, camera assistants, camera owner-operators, and creator studios preparing shots before and during a shoot.

Build a local production package, organize shot cards, choose camera bodies, lens sets, and filter cases, capture scout stills inside the app, then use the live frame-assist preview for aspect guides. Drag the scene exposure bead across a stop rail, choose target T-stops, and stack ND filter chips into a virtual matte box. CineBalance also plans lens field of view, depth of field, equivalent focal length, media runtime, card load, sun position, optional public weather context, gel/mired shift, beam spread, flicker checks, and a complete camera slate.

Built for prep, scout, and set-side planning:

- local camera frame assist with aspect and safe guides
- local shot package with camera body, lens set, filter case, and shot cards
- in-app scout frame capture stored locally in the app container
- camera, sensor, lens, codec, and filter libraries
- scene EV rail with one-third-stop movement
- three camera lanes for A, B, and C setups
- T-stop, ISO, frame rate, and shutter angle controls
- tap-to-stack ND chips
- required versus planned ND guidance
- lens field of view and sensor matching
- depth of field, hyperfocal, and split-focus planning
- media runtime, codec, card, and shooting-ratio estimates
- local sun altitude, azimuth, and golden-hour planning
- optional public forecast fetch for temperature and cloud cover
- lighting checks for gel/mired shift, beam spread, and flicker risk
- balance, check, and warning states
- full camera/lens/media/sun slate for handoff notes
- local persistence
- optional haptic stop ticks
- optional keep-awake mode

CineBalance is a planning aid. It does not replace a calibrated meter, camera test, weather judgment, or operator decision. Verify exposure and setup before rolling.
