01
Cards & recording

Video Storage & Record Time Calculator

Turn card capacity and camera bitrate into a realistic recording-time estimate, with a safety allowance and SD speed-class check.

time = usable card bits ÷ bitrate
02
Frame rates

Slow-Motion Duration Calculator

See how long a high-frame-rate clip becomes on a 24, 25 or 30 fps timeline and how slow the resulting playback will be.

playback = capture time × capture fps ÷ timeline fps
03
Lenses & sensors

Crop Factor & Equivalent Lens Calculator

Compare framing across full frame, APS-C, Micro Four Thirds and smaller sensors without confusing exposure with depth of field.

equivalent focal length = focal length × crop factor
04
Focus planning

Depth of Field & Hyperfocal Calculator

Estimate near limit, far limit, total depth of field and hyperfocal distance for practical shooting decisions.

H = f² ÷ (N × c) + f
05
Composition

Field of View Calculator

Calculate horizontal and vertical angle of view plus the width and height covered at your chosen subject distance.

angle = 2 × atan(sensor dimension ÷ 2f)
06
Long exposure

ND Filter Exposure Calculator

Convert a metered shutter speed into the corrected exposure for any neutral-density filter from one to sixteen stops.

filtered shutter = base shutter × 2ˢᵗᵒᵖˢ
07
Sequence planning

Timelapse Planner

Plan interval, frame count, finished duration and approximate storage before leaving the camera to run.

frames = shooting time ÷ interval
08
Close-up photography

Macro Field & Reproduction Calculator

Translate magnification into real-world subject coverage and estimate pixels per millimetre for digitisation or close-up work.

subject field = sensor dimension ÷ magnification
