Your iPhone and Photography #2

Yesterday I talked about Sunlight Tracker to help you get better photographs when the sun is in the correct position. Today I want to introduce you to a FREE app called Field Tools - a great Depth of Field calculator.

This is a must if you are wanting to take your photographs in full manual mode, including focusing.

This works by you first dialing in your focal length, then your f/stop and the app automatically works out your focusing distance.

For example, you set your focal length to 18mm and aperture to f/16 - the app tells you that anything from 3ft onwards will be infocus. Dial in 24mm and your focus point will be from 5.9ft (6ft) onwards. This is a great free app, and one I recommend.
