What Professionals Say
"Absolutely fantastic app for location scouting. Went with a director to two locations, established shooting direction and framing during the scout and saved about 2 hours of setup time on the shoot day."
"This app has saved me a lot of setup time. I've used it dozens of times deciding where to place cameras and sliders and what glass works best. I do all of that before unpacking any equipment."
"This app is fricken awesome! I was so close to spending a whole lot on a directors viewfinder… Turns out this app can do the conversion AND emulate the squeezed look of 35mm Anamorphic vs Spherical."
"Perfect to set up your shots before changing lens. Took a second to figure out how to use it correctly, but once I did it's perfect. Now I can tell exactly how a shot will look before I move the entire rig or swap lenses."
"I discovered Magic ARRI Viewfinder a few years ago. Over the years I have tried the app on different phones and always had a good experience. It is simple to use and packed with all the functions you need."
