a compact light meter
A reflective light meter for manually controllable cameras that don't have a meter integrated or have one that is no longer working.
usabiltity first
- aperture priority, shutter priority, manual, exposure value modes
- fast operation and start up, stored previous settings
- set parameter quickly using a control wheel
- change secondary parameters by holding the button when turning the wheel
engineered for longevity
- anodized aluminium body and control wheel
- uses the standard accessory shoe mount
- standard CR2032 battery used in many devices
how to
The
how to clip below explains the workflow in aperture priority mode.
The tabs
A S M EV show how different modes are effecting the display and calculation. The camera pans from a darker
(left) to a brighter (right) area.
aperture priority: f-number is set and the shutter speed is calculated
shutter priority: shutter speed is set and the aperture f-number is calculated
manual mode: f-number and shutter speed is set and the exposure offset is calculated
exposure value: shows the exposure value, compensated for ISO and EV offset.
