artemis Director’s viewfinder hits 2.0

Chemical Wedding has just released a significant update to its criminally awesome iPhone app, Artemis Director’s Viewfinder.

Version 2 brings additional formats including RED One 4k 2:1 Ana, Canon 5D Mk II and the Canon 7D. Additionally, it can now simulate wider angle lenses in full screen mode. That’s great news!  And, in my opinion, this version has a much prettier interface.

If you’re not familiar with Artemis, or just want to learn more about director’s viewfinders in general, check out this interview we posted last month. It was shot at the DV Expo, just prior to the release of version 1, and includes some info about their other app, Helios.

  3. So, how does this work anyway? Does it work on 3GS only, or is it for older generation iDevices too? Does it require you to take photo and then superimposes the frames on top of that or does it paint it live? I can’t seem to find any video demonstration on youtube, vimeo or even the developer’s website.

    Thanks for any info!

  5. For over several decades the box camera was the gadget of choice for the typical amateur photographer. This is because it was cheap and simple, yet still capable of excellent results under most conditions. Box cameras were usually fitted with a single-element lens, a limited range opening control, and a single-speed shutter.
