Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

A marvelous widget has an immense database of cameras including several interchangeable lens DSLR for which the product is of no value
Since there is no database for the lens the widget seems incapable of performing a calculation even if you manually type in focal length and F stop

Great product if you have a camera with a built in lens

Beautiful but limited - redvex81rg

Can u describe me the problem? The widget CAN calculate deep of field even for DSRL with interchangable lens because it depends on sensor size and circe of confusion. For bug report please indicate
- Model camera
- System
- Inserted values

PS. I've just tried with Canon EOS 400D and it works perfectly.

Let me know

Thanks for your interest :)

HI
I assume you are the author but I could find no email address on your site or I would have contacted you directly

I entered Nikon D2X and also Cannon Eos400 and got the same result of nothing

I actually use a Nikon D200 which is not in your data base
I input FL=100mm, F/=5.6, Dist=10 Ft

outputs
Hyperfocal=NaN
D.Min =NaN
Dmax=inf (I cant find the symbol)
Dof =Inf
Near NaNFT= blank
total DOF =Blank
Far=inf
Hyper Dist= NaNFT
DOF=All'infinito

When I use any camera with a built in lens everything works perfectly
Note a minor cosmetic issue
The calculated DOF overwrites the word "field" in the center of page 1

I am using a Intel based desktop MAC with system 10.4.10 & 2 GB Ram

Yes, i'm the developer.
I found a bug, in dpreview database sometimes there are some extra notice in focal lenght and my widget doesn't recognize the case.

I'm fixing it.
