Original: Show HN: I turned my iPhone and a $20 smart plug into an f-stop timer
A developer has built a tool that turns an iPhone and a $20 smart plug into an f-stop timer for photographic darkroom printing. The setup uses the phone to control exposures and switch the enlarger light on and off via the plug, replacing dedicated darkroom timers. It has drawn attention on Hacker News, where commenters are discussing the practicality of using off-the-shelf gadgets for analog photography.
