About Luxilux Light Meter
The built-in meter is broken or requires special batteries?
With Luxilux you always have a light meter in your pocket.
--- METERING ---
Luxilux will take an average reading of the image you see in the preview.
Specify the area for the meter reading even more accurately by zooming in or out.
If your device has two or three back cameras, you can switch between them.
You can also tap on points of interest to expose correctly for them.
--- MODES ---
Use Luxilux in aperture priority mode (Av) by choosing the ISO and aperture, and Luxilux will calculate the right shutter speed to get a proper exposure.
Use it in shutter priority mode (Tv) by choosing the ISO and the shutter speed, and Luxilux will calculate the right aperture to get a proper exposure.
Manual mode (M) lets you change all values and shows you how much they differ from the calculated optimal exposure.
--- SAVE EXPOSURES ---
Tap "Save" and the currently selected settings are saved alongside a preview image into your photo library.
If you give location permission you can also save where the measurement was taken.
You can view your saved photos in Luxilux or in the Photos app.
--- PROFILES ---
You can choose between full stops, half stops or third stops for ISO, aperture and shutter speed.
Specify the minimum and maximum values that your combination of camera, lens and film supports.
Save these settings in profiles so you can quickly recall them.

Needs refinement
The ISO choices jump in large increments. When I pay for an app, I expect a bit more refinement than a free app. For example, when using ISO 125 film, I have to use the 100 setting in the app and then do some math myself to compensate. Can’t the app do the math for me and let me adjust the ISO in small increments?

My app suggestions
Please add a grid and a level. The app updated is wonderful for me, but I’m missing a grid and a level. It’ll make it way easier for me to get the shot and it’s not cut off but leveled and in a grid. Other than that, I’m loving the app now because of the useful upgrades it brings me! Thanks for the update. Hopefully, I’ll see a grid and level soon added to this app.
