DBW FilmCalc Free iPhone App

Hello Ian, a small suggestion for an update would be the ability to select inches as well as mm for lens focal length. I know I can convert imperial to metric but would be nice to have it in the app.
Many thanks, great app.

I like it and I will plan to add it.

One quick question so I get it right: are your lens focal lengths and your bellows extension both in inches, or is it a mix, for example a lens marked in mm with a rail or bellows scale in inches?

Also, do you ever work in fractions of an inch (like 12 1/2) or is a decimal (12.5) fine for you?

Thanks again,
Ian

Hey Ian, I have a mix of lenses, focal lengths are in inches on some and mm's on others. I'm in the UK and only use mm's for measuring (bellows extension etc), never with inches and fractions.

Many thanks,
Nas

Any chance of an analog version for Samsung Galaxy please?

A simple web version that works on any phone is one option I'm also considering, and a full Android app would follow if there's enough interest but developing for Android is not something I have done much of

Version 1.3 now passed Apple review and has been updated, the app should auto update if you have auto updates enabled.
