pCam (and its sister app, pCine) are programs used for common cinematography calculations originally created for the Palm PDA platform. The apps are used to calculate depth-of-field, field-of-view, exposure, diopter and macro, underwater, time-lapse and screen time and so, so much more. I LOVE these programs!! I’ve been hanging on to my Handspring Visor for I don’t know how long because it still has by passwords for when I originally purchased both pCam and pCine. On my computer, I’ve been running a barely functional Palm emulator just so I can use the software when I’m doing pre-production planning. I know people, who despite not wanting a Palm phone, have gotten one just to run this software! That’s how deep the love runs.
Now available for the iPhone, pCam combines both apps. It’s created and distributed by David Eubank, a 1st Camera Assistant here in the Los Angeles area. Given the fact that I’ve been using several different apps on my iPhone, now I fell like Forrest Gump when he got the news he won’t have to worry about money any more… “That’s good. One less thing!”
Visit the iTunes store to get it. Many thanks to David for making this software.
