Photos taken with Canon T5i are blown out or too dark even with correct exposure settings, requiring post-processing fixes.
The camera's auto-exposure (AV priority) is inconsistent, producing overexposed or underexposed results. Manual compensation (-1 stop) fixes highlights but crushes shadows. No in-camera solution for balanced exposure, forcing reliance on post-processing.

App Concept
ExposureAssist Pro
A camera accessory or app that attaches to the hot shoe and provides real-time histogram and exposure feedback, suggesting optimal settings for balanced highlights and shadows. It replaces the guesswork of exposure compensation and reduces post-processing time.
Key Features
- Live histogram overlay on camera LCD or external display
- AI-powered exposure suggestion based on scene detection
- Highlight/shadow clipping warnings with recovery tips
- Wireless sync with editing software for instant adjustments
Target Users: Enthusiast and semi-professional photographers using Canon DSLRs, especially those struggling with exposure consistency in varying lighting conditions.
Revenue Model: $79 one-time purchase for the device or $4.99/mo subscription for app-based version with analytics
