Exposure Calculator (for Android)

Thank you for downloading my Photography Exposure Calculator.

This is very much a personal project that I built to solve problems I encounter when shooting film photography. It isn't intended to compete with commercial apps, and it certainly isn't polished enough for release on the Google Play Store.

At the moment the app includes tools such as:

  • ND filter exposure calculations
  • Reciprocity failure calculations
  • Exposure compensation
  • Bracketing suggestions
  • Exposure timer

The user interface is intentionally simple and functional. My focus has been on getting the calculations right rather than creating a polished design. I also expect to make changes to the reciprocity calculator as I continue using the app in the field.

Installation

Because this app is not available through the Google Play Store, you'll need to install it manually.

  1. Download the APK file to your Android device.
  2. Open the APK using your file manager.
  3. If prompted, allow installation from unknown sources for your browser or file manager.
  4. Complete the installation.

Depending on your version of Android, the exact steps may vary slightly.
