Learn to shoot film and see the finished photo straight away

Easy Analog brings the workings of a single-lens reflex camera of the 1970s and 1980s to the iPhone.

Step by step the course introduces one control after another, teaching how the most important settings of a film camera are handled. Changing aperture, shutter and depth of field becomes visible at once and simulates the effect on the film inside the camera. That way the handling of a film camera and the work with a light meter can be learned without wasting expensive film.
