Lighting Handbook is now iPhone 5 compatible, this means you’ll be able to use the entire screen and see 18% more information. It should now also work on iOS 4.3 devices again.

There’s a great new feature if your out on tour, or have your own kit – Favourites. Keep all the kit you use most frequently in one quick and easy place.

Thank you to those who have constantly supported this project, given feedback and suggested ideas.
