What is The Photographer's Transit? Description of The Photographer's Transit 3752 chars
Visual field-of-view calculator and shot planner for outdoor photographers.
The Photographer's Transit ("Photo Transit") is a map-based shot planning tool for outdoor photographers who use interchangeable lens cameras (such as SLRs). Plan the best possible camera, lenses and shooting locations for your photo trip or assignment using the sophisticated built-in field of view simulator.
Photo Transit includes detailed elevation profile information so you can scout your sightlines ahead of time, and check whether your planned focal length will capture your subject. Photo Transit's vertical field of view chart lets you see if your subject will be visible or obstructed by the local terrain.
Create projects containing detailed shot lists, including camera and subject location, height above the ground, pitch, orientation and focal length. Share your planned shots with colleagues and friends via email and social media, or export them as KML for use in your favourite GPS app.

The Photographer's Transit Pros
✓ Trio of apps = essentialThis app is well thought out. Be sure to delve a bit as it can be overwhelming. Once you have a handle on its mechanics you will find this tool essential for prepping your landscape outings. Take the guesswork out of which lenses and bodies to take on your next trek. Landscape photographers rejoice..Version: 2.3.2
✓ Mindblowingly useful.Crookneck always has my jaw on the floor for how much time their apps (this and TPE) can save me hours of hunting and hoping to find the right location for more than just photography. Useful even if you just want to find a picturesque viewpoint to have lunch while on a road trip..Version: 2.0
✓ The Photographer's Transit Positive ReviewsThe Photographer's Transit Cons
✗ Not compatible with iPhoneI purchased this as part of the Photo Planning Apps bundle, and only discovered after purchase that it does not work on my iPhone. If you purchase “The Photographer’s Transit” by itself, it states in the description that it only works with an iPad. However, if you purchase it as part of the bundle, which is what I did, it states that it is compatible with iPhone and iPad. I only own an iPhone - not an iPad - and therefore this app is useless to me. I lost money because of the way this app is described in the Photo Planning Apps bundle..Version: 1.0.6
✗ Great Principle .... But!Love the idea of picking a location and being able to view and "walk" around it. Unfortunately it works with Google Street View so it's fine if you are photographing from a road but when you locate the camera in the middle of a field, for example, there is no view available. Also zoom is limited to that on street view so my 140 (MFT) lens will only zoom to 70 in the app. Fix these aspects and this will be a very useful tool..Version: 1.0.6
