Wonderful tool that does things the other lighting diagram did not. I think the ability to email your diagram with descriptions is awesome. I also like the ability to go in and make changes to your diagram as well. Being able to resize softboxes is very helpful. I think the actual drawing area is too small... That could use a little more room. I would also like to see a way to add f-stop info and other description info directly onto the diagram itself that is attached to the objects. Great App!


Nice but!!

It crashes on 3gs whenever i try to edit a dia


Very Nice, Free, Light Diagram Tool
SCLoz

This is a great app, especially considering its price tag (free). The UI takes a little while to get used to, but once you figure out how it works the tool becomes intuitive and powerful. It can be a little difficult to rotate and resize images on the small iPhone screen (especially if you have big fingers like me) but its doable. An iPad version of this app that takes advantage of the iPad's larger screen real estate would be incredible and I'm really hoping that Sylights is considering it. In terms of enhancements, it would be great to be able to attach (or link) a corresponding photo to the light diagrams directly from each diagram (perhaps from the properties dialogue) and it would also be great to be able to upload diagrams directly to their site directly from the app (as opposed to exporting the image and then having to upload it manually). Those enhancements, coupled with the addition of a few more light modifiers to choose from for each diagram, would make this a killer app for strobist photographers.


near perfect

Does a very good job on the iPhone, but I really need an iPad or Universal version.


Best of kind

The best app for setting up lighting diagrams and keeping track of them. Plain and simple!


I wish I had this in photoschool
Mr. Thompson

This app is genius, especially if one is learning studio photography for the first time. The api is fantastic and the options nearly cover all of the bases in terms of lighting equipment. A must have for any photographer, from student to pro.


Great

This is the best app ever. Thanks to the peeps at D-Town TV for recommending this app.


On of the better ones, crashes
iTuneThis

I have it on my 4S and it crashes when you try to save your photo to camera roll. Otherwise looks good and easy to use. Would like more more items in there.
