New Field of View Tool
We’ve added a new free tool to our website - think of it as a slightly delayed holiday gift! The new Field of View tool allows you to visualize the effective field of view of different camera and lens combinations. It’s a little like The Photographer’s Transit, but for the web.

A couple of updates for November. North America forecasts have been available in TPE for iOS 4.10 for a few weeks now. Next up, we’re adding Europe to v3. This will be available in a forthcoming app update (4.11) which is currently in beta testing.
