Lens•Lab at Mac App Store analyse

The highly regarded Lens•Lab iOS application is now available for your Mac!

Lens•Lab is a virtual lens simulation tool for photographers of all skill levels. It graphically illustrates how depth of field and field of view relate to your SLR camera and lenses.

Professionals will like how quick and easy it is to get depth of field calculations.

Semi-pro photographers will enjoy configuring "what-if?" scenarios for various lenses.

Photography beginners will find it to be a great learning tool by exploring the interplay of aperture, focal length, and focal distance in real time.

Lens•Lab is more than a great depth of field calculator, its a lens simulator that can help you explore, see, and intuitively understand how depth of field works with your camera and lenses.

Lens•Lab Features:

Advanced visual depiction of depth of field with real-time controls:
• The background scales from 10 centimeters to 100 meters interactively
• Out-of-focus areas are represented as blurred in real-time
• Distance labels, angle of view, and other information updates as you drag

Easily control aperture, focal length, and focal distance with sliders or mouse drag:
• Aperture (from ƒ/1 to ƒ/32 in micro-stop increments)
• Focal Length (from 10mm to 300mm)
• Focal Distance (from 10cm to 100m)

Information overlays are independently configurable:
• Hyperfocal Distance
• Far Depth of Field
• Focal Distance
• Near Depth of Field
• Total Depth of Field
• Vertical Angle of View
• Distance Scale
• Simulated Blur

Sensor size is configurable for:
• Full Frame (35mm)
• APS-C (for Canon Digital Rebel, Nikon DX, etc.)
• Four Thirds (for Olympus, etc.)

An image of the current configuration can be copied to the clipboard or saved as a TIFF image file for later reference. Included is a usage guide that explains all features of the application as well as depth of field in photography.

Erfüllt seinen Zweck sehr gut.

• ★★★★☆   Frederik Paul 10 years ago ( v 1.0.2 )

Die App zeigt alle Werte nach Format (FF, APS-C, 4/3), Brennweite, Blende und Entfernung und zeigt auch noch die Unschärfe grob an. Wobei diese bei 4/3 aber nicht stärker ausfallen kann als bei APS-C; der Unterschied zwischen FF und APS-C ist okay, aber zu 4/3 passt er nicht. Deshalb einen Stern Abzug.

Angenehmes Tool zur Darstellung und Einschätzung

Sehr schön gemacht einfaches interface schnell gelernte Bedienung, gefällt mir sehr

Simple and beautiful!

• ★★★★☆   ThomasGoetz 9 years ago ( v 1.0.2 )

simple and beautiful! its plain easy to understand and the visualization is superb! The only thing i would like to see is, what CoC are being used for calculations or even better to manually change them!

Does the job

Id be happy if the app were just sliders and numbers but I guess the graphics are a nice bonus. I double checked the numbers with some websites and they were spot on. Very useful.

Хорошее приложение

Своих денег однозначно стоит, все визуально понятно

Пригодится. (^__^)

Полезная штука.

Ottima per capire come funzionano gli obiettivi fotografici

• ★★★★☆   Franz Holland 8 years ago ( v 1.0.2 )

Questa geniale app fornisce una rappresentazione grafica di come siano correlate tra loro profondita’ di campo, diaframma, inquadratura e distanza iperfocale. Nessun calcolo da fare, basta spostare i cursori per vedere gli effetti sulla scena. La consiglio a tutti i fotografi principianti, un bel esempio del classico "cosa succede se…” che risparmia tante prove sul campo e foto sbagliate.
