Light Meter

Light meter is a simple app for measuring illuminance (lux, fc) by using the light sensor of your device. To be used in photography, scenic design or whatever you want. Easy to switch between Lux and Foot-candles. In photography, a light meter is often used to determine the proper exposure for a photograph. Typically a light meter will include a computer, either digital or analog, which allows the photographer to determine which shutter speed and f-number should be selected for an optimum exposure, given a certain lighting situation and film speed. Light meters are also used in the fields of cinematography and scenic design, in order to determine the optimum light level for a scene. They are used in the general field of lighting, where they can help to reduce the amount of waste light used in the home, light pollution outdoors, and plant growing to ensure proper light levels. Be aware that the accuracy of the light sensor vary between different devices and values shown in this application are indicative.
