- It compares formats such as GFX 50S stills and Alexa LF framing through sensor-and-lens calculations.
Field notes
The workflow starts with a scouting still and uses camera-sensor and lens information to draw a corresponding cine frame. The homepage illustrates the comparison with a GFX 50S still at 80mm and an Alexa LF at 100mm, and names support across ARRI, Canon, Sony, Nikon, Fujifilm, and Panasonic formats. It also presents scene-by-scene crops, lens details, notes, and PDF output as part of the scouting-to-deck process.
