Douglas Software Announces Version 1.1.0 of
Camera Module for PDA

May 2, 2006

Hampshire, United Kingdom (May 2, 2006) Douglas Software announces today the release of version 1.1.0 of Camera module for PDA. This software provides a photographer with instant assistance in solving many day-to-day optical equations such as angle of view for selected lens and film format combination, depth of field, including near focus, far focus, total depth of field and hyperfocal distance as well as image width and height. The Camera module covers 35 digital and 12 conventional film formats. With Camera module for PDA, both amateur photographers and professionals will be able to make a more effective use of their photographic equipment while leaving the complexity of optical calculations and formula in the background.

Once you have got used to Camera module for PDA, calculating optical equations becomes refreshingly simply. Let's say, for example, you want to know what the depth of the field is with a 35mm camera with a 100mm lens at a distance of 2 metres and a circle of confusion of 0.05mm at a aperture of f8. Using the module, you specify the 35mm film format, select the manual option for Circle of Confusion and enter .05. Then you should specify a focal length of 100mm, an aperture of f8 and specify the Manual option for Distance and enter 2. Finally, click on the Calc icon and the programme will immediately respond with a calculated figure. The best thing in this software is that all your efforts are restricted to a few simple clicks when selecting the calculation options. The software is available for Palm and Pocket PC.
