LX handbook
Guys you have designed a great app
Nothing is out there quite like it, it's helped me in those crazy situations many times all with a tap of the button.
If anyone is a lighting guy or anyone for that matter, I recommend it's definitely worth getting.
Just so many great tools.
Thanks again guys
