Features & Capabilities

New in LExp 4.0: SkyMeter Forecast brings 48-hour photography conditions and SCI ratings for sunrise and sunset, plus a completely redesigned interface.

Great landscape photographs start before you press the shutter.

LExp helps you be in the right place when the light is right - and get the exposure right when it happens.

Plan sunrise and sunset, find golden and blue hour, check photographic conditions, track the Sun, calculate long exposures, work with ND filters, photograph the Moon and night sky, plan star trails and eclipses - all from one photography toolkit built for landscape photographers.

PLAN THE LIGHT

  • Sun Tracker - see where the Sun rises and sets for any date and location, with solar direction, elevation and azimuth.

No serious landscape photographer should go on a shoot without this app. It takes the mental gymnastics out of calculating camera adjustments necessary to achieve the best creative results using ND filters and long exposures.

Want to photograph star trails? You need to know the settings for your camera. This app is where you will find them. An intuitive interface gives you the calculations for all kinds of nature subjects such as aurora photography, and lunar imaging. Now all you need is a reliable camera, proper clothing, and a sense of adventure.
