Every tool on set,
in your pocket.

SetScope brings professional-grade cinematography instruments to iOS, precision-calibrated for the tools you already use.

Director's Viewfinder

Frame a shot using your selected camera mode and lens. The live preview shows the calculated field of view and warns when your iPhone cannot show the full width.

Sun Tracker

Solar position, golden hour, sunrise and sunset times, and a visual trajectory dial showing the sun's arc for any date and location. Moon phase included for night shoots.

Depth of Field Calculator

Precise near and far focus limits based on sensor size, aperture, focal length, and subject distance. Know your sharp zone before you roll.

Exposure Calculator

Solve any corner of the exposure triangle — ISO, shutter speed, aperture. Instant EV calculations for any lighting scenario.

Camera Database

84 cinema and DSLR camera bodies with 705 recording modes. Browse active sensor size, resolution, frame rates and crop factor on set.

Time & Motion

Shutter angle to shutter speed conversion, timecode calculations and frame rate tools for common production formats.

Gear Library

Save your own cameras and lenses for instant recall across all tools. Build your kit once, use it everywhere in the app.

Your work stays under your control.

SetScope keeps calculations and your gear library on your iPhone. Optional place-name lookup uses Apple's geocoding service; photos and videos you save follow your Photos settings.

We built this tool for professionals who work with sensitive productions. Your scouting locations and equipment list are yours.

  • Location can support Sun Tracker and capture metadata; place-name lookup may contact Apple
  • Camera access only for the Viewfinder — no photos saved without your action
  • No third-party analytics SDKs or advertising tracking
  • No account required — no sign-in, no cloud sync
  • Your gear library is stored in a local on-device database
  • Open PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy manifest — auditable by Apple and you

Start scouting smarter.
