Description

/!\ THIS IS NOT AN APPLICATION TO TAKE PHOTOS, BUT TO HELP TO PERFORM SETTINGS IN MANUAL MODE ON A CAMERA OR A DEDICATED APPLICATION.

This application will help you to abandon the automatic mode of your cameras that does not do everything and control everything. For more experienced photographers, it can simplify the settings by doing the calculations for you (/!\ The camera must be adjusted manually).

In any case, it is not a magic application to make beautiful pictures every time, but it will allow you to find a basic setting to refine to get the best picture you think.

It is aimed at professional or amateur photographers (basic knowledge is required) and offers the tools to:
- Calculate the alternative/equivalent exposure (manages the ND filter and long exposures)
- Calculate the depth of field, hyperfocal and simulation of Bokeh
- Calculate the field of view
- Calculate the shutter speed to freeze the motion of a subject
- Capture/Photograph sunrise/sunset, the golden hours and the blue hours
- Get the position of the sun, time of sunrise/sunset, golden hour, blue time and monthly calendar
- Capture/Photograph the moon based on the phase of the day
- Capture/Photograph moonlit landscapes
- Get the position of the moon, the hour of moonrise/moonset and the monthly calendar
- Capture/Photograph the stars, the milky way without or with star trails (Simulator)
- Capture/Photograph the northern lights
- Capture/Photograph the lightning and the fireworks
- Calculate the best setting for an EV (exposure value) given
- Calculate distance or aperture with a flash
- Calculate the optimum settings according to the lighting of the place (Light Meter)
- Calculate for the macro photo the possible magnification with a close-up lens or an extension tube
- Calculate the print size
- Time lapse
- Get/Set the characteristics of a camera (sensor size, crop factor, sensor resolution, ISO range, shutter speed range, circle of confusion)

A countdown is available for long exposures.

If this app is right for you, you can switch to Photographer's Companion Pro (no ads with more features).

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Wonderful!! Amazing!!! All the essential photography tools in one app!!! & it works!! Can't believe it!!! Love it much. Tks alot! Now I'm going to Pro version to contribute such a nice app
4 ★I can't find a camera to capture with. If there's none, I think it should be added so that when u select camera from the menu, u can capture in lenses of any camera type. Will rate it 5 star by then.
4 ★Nice app, but became bugy after last couple of updates "capture the stars" section doesnt update lens score or recommended settings when aperture or focal length are changed
4 ★So far, so good. I'm a rookie photographer mainly focusing on night photography. There's clearly a lot of work going on with this app with some very useful sections.
5 ★All I can say is that this truly is a photographers companion.its perfect for beginners that are still figuring out their camera. I would give this 6 stars if possible
3 ★Giving it 3 stars for now until I get to know it better. The dji options are a little outdated. It doesn't have the Mavic 2 Pro or zoom. Once I get to know the app better, I will update the stars and rating
5 ★This is a great app. Try it out for £€$0.00 I have used it for a while and have just upgraded to the pro version.
5 ★It is very helpful. It is the photographers companion indeed helps for fast settings especially when you dont have an idea of what your dealing with no matter the scenerio
5 ★Freezes in star mode, looks like it is problem of the phone , using honor 6, on mate se everything works fine. Thank you. Nice soft.
5 ★Well I've just install this app, and although I've not used it yet, it looks like that I won't uninstall, I've been into photography for many years, I look forward to using this app....good work
4 ★Wish all the help pages are available within the app rather than redirect to webpage. Well at least the basic parts which won't need frequent updates
3 ★Good app but.... the issue I have is the limited number of Sony cameras. Can you add support for older models like the Alpha A580?
