App Store Description

Why spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on a camera to get average pictures? PhotoHelper lets you take better pictures by optimizing settings on your camera to better suit each particular situation – easily, in seconds, and without a math degree!

With a few taps, PhotoHelper lets you enter information about your camera, lighting conditions and the subject you are shooting (including target depth of field needed). It takes this information and automatically tells you how to adjust the settings of your camera to:

• Ensure your subject is in focus (i.e. within depth-of-field/hyperfocal range)
• Avoid unwanted motion blur as well as over/under exposure
• Sidestep common pitfalls such as camera shake and/or grainy pictures

You can easily adjust the recommended speed, aperture, ISO, depth-of-field or target exposure parameters - the effect of your changes and potential warnings is displayed in real time. Typical depth-of-field (DOF) calculators provide only partial information, leaving you with the task of finding the right combination of shutter speed, ISO and exposure. PhotoHelper lets you visually see how all these work together – making the process much simpler and faster.

Many cameras are different! There are no 'generic' settings - PhotoHelper allows you to get the particular settings for YOUR camera. The included database supports most popular cameras and formats, including Canon, Casio, Fujifilm, HP, Kodak, Leica, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax and Sony. It also provides generic formats for 35mm, Digital SLR, APS-H, APS-C, Medium format, and most compact cameras. The supported lens range is from 2 to 1500mm.

If you are interested in a technical description of how PhotoHelper combines depth-of-field, angular velocity and other elements with information about your subject and camera to generate its recommendations, please visit our website!

NOTE: This application does NOT use or adjust the camera on the iPhone.
