Great app that needs work
Marcus DeSade
I really like this app, and recommended it. However, I would love to see the app enhanced so that I can increment numeric fields by swiping over them. That would be so much more efficient than having to manually enter each shot and take from the keyboard.
Finally!

Finally! A slate made by someone in the film industry. Reasons why this app is fantastic: 1) Utilizes the extra screen space of the iPad, with an iPhone version that is formatted for the smaller screen! (This will do just fine until I can afford an iPad) 2) The fields used are information that should be on a slate. (I can't think of any other information I need) 3) THE FONT IS LEGIBLE AND PROFESSIONAL 4) Timecode & Color Chart & Greyscale 5) Unique items aimed specifically for DSLR cameras (ISO Speed, Aperture, Shutter Speed, White Balance, Lens, Filter, etc) 6) The new slating process is genius! (Flashes all the extra information for the camera in 2 seconds followed by a Visual/Audio sync) This is the only app this company has developed so far, so I expect them to keep it updated and introduce new features down the road. You hit the nail on the head by keeping it simple. Thanks for the decent screenshots, I love this app. $5 to replace a $1,350 piece of outdated technology. Can't wait to use this on set!
Good App

This first version brings good options for the DSLR filmakers. An urgente request should be about the time format display. It could bring the options off DD/MM/YYYY too, for people outside US. Also, this could be improved: Bigger boxes for the reference colors A custom Field:Value would be nice feature More options on clapper sounds Nice app, if you shoot DSLR movies, is a valuable tool on the set.
Great app love it

Would like to be able to save diff setting because we switch lenses and instead of retyping would rather bring back entire settings. Can we program our own timecode
Nicely done - Does a great job!

If you're shooting video with a DSLR, this app is must have!!! Easy, Simple and Quick to use!
AMAZING APP
Brian_Ramirez
This is an app any filmmaker needs to keep on their iPad or iPhone! It combines some of the best resources for slating any production. The fact that it has a full grey scale and color chart is amazing. A FIVE DOLLAR APP that replaces something you used to buy for thousands and really didn't need to cost that much. It is very well designed and takes about 30 seconds to learn and navigate. I think that future updates will make this app even better. I would like to see the ability to make the slate display just the grey scale and just the color chart in full screen. Even though the iPad's screen can't be trusted for color correct adjustments for a colorist, it would be a starting point possibly. Great app, can't wait for future versions and future products from this company!
Thank god

I'm so greatful for you software nerds that spend your time making apps like this for people like me. Since I got my 7d I've needed a slate like this to record all the extra info and help me use my hvx as just a audio device. Haha. Great job Chris you are my favorite geek today. I look forward to the updates.
killer app with great feature set

About time someone made a app this useful. 1.1 UPDATE is about to go live and this is great for having on set or smaller run and gun set ups. Made by someone working in the film/broadcast industry who understands what we need and doesn't charge an arm and a leg for it. Larger refrence colors or a option to flip to a focus chart or color checker would be great .
CRASH

First version worked great, just downloaded the update = CRASH everytime I hit "open slate".
