FilmMate
Load the film. Nail the frame.
Real-time metering built for film cameras. Aperture, shutter, and film ISO—figured out before you press the shutter.
Live metering
See the light—don’t guess it
Use the rear camera to read ambient brightness, calculate EV100, and show over/underexposure cues. Tap the viewfinder to move the metering point.
- Average · Center · Spot Cycle three metering modes. Center-weighted emphasizes the middle of the frame.
- Meter lock Lock the reading so exposure doesn’t drift while you recompose.
- Sunny 16 reference Match classic daylight steps—sunny, overcast, shade, and more.
Exposure control
Shoot the way you already think
Aperture priority, shutter priority, or manual. Compensation, ND, and focal length are adjustable—and suggested shutters respect your body’s range.
Aperture / shutter / manual
Hold one side; solve the other—or set both yourself.
±3 EV compensation
Third-stop steps to protect highlights or lift shadows.
ND 0–10 stops
Fold filter density into the exposure suggestion.
Focal length assist
Tune for the lens you’re on, and lock the reading when needed.
