Features & Capabilities

light&depth is a comprehensive field toolkit for photography. It blends precise depth‑of‑field calculations for any camera with a sun calculator, a light meter, an exposure calculator, and handy live tools. Customize your camera database (700+ cameras) and lens presets, add your own prime lenses, and enjoy fast, intuitive results so you can focus on composing great shots.

Sun planning features show when and where the sun will hit your scene, with AR‑view hints, golden hour, sunrise/sunset, civil/nautical/astronomical twilight, and map overlays. The toolkit also includes timelapse and star-trail utilities, ND-filter support, and exposure matching. If a camera is missing, the database updates within 48 hours to keep your data current.

User Reviews

Users praise light&depth for its comprehensive set of planning tools for depth of field, field of view, and focal-length calculations, plus a clean interface and strong educational value. The app helps photographers and videographers plan shots and avoid guesswork, and is considered a good value for its price. However, recurring issues include a unit-display bug where metric selections still show inches/feet, and mixed unit presentation that confuses users. Onboarding could be improved with a tutorial. There are occasional mode-specific calculation inaccuracies, and some reviews note long periods without updates. Overall, powerful but with notable reliability and UX caveats.

Pros

Extensive, feature-rich toolset for planning shots, including depth of field, field of view, and focal-length calculations.
User-friendly, well-designed interface that makes complex calculations approachable.
Educational resource that helps photographers learn about focal lengths, exposure planning, and DoF.
Strong value for the price; offered at a modest cost relative to the features.
Helpful for manual-focus setups and adapter lenses, reducing guesswork when planning shots.

Cons

Unit/measurement display doesn't consistently respect the selected system, causing mixed inches/feet and metric displays.
Onboarding could be improved; the app throws a lot at the user and would benefit from tutorials.
Occasional calculation inaccuracies in specific modes (e.g., primes mode).
Evidence of stagnation on updates; not updated for years.

Recent reviews

It is a very visually stimulating app but do I need to purchase the app to get the lens setting to move by one instead of 10( my lens is 105mm and the app will only stop at 100 or 110)?
