I bought a brand new Sekonic L-208 lightmeter; it's the simplest lightmeter you could imagine, but it's very compact and you can handle it with one hand, it has a silicon photo diode as light receiving element . I needed a small lightmeter because the very complete Gossen Luna Pro F is too big for some situations (it's bigger than the Rollei 35). I don't use lightmeters very much, I use experience and exposure tables in general, however they are really useful for indoors photography with natural and artificial light. This little lightmeter has two interesting points: 1) It comes with a shoe to fit it in the camera accesories shoe if you want to do it, this way you measure the reflected light almost from the lens position, the lightmeter shoe has three holes to align it with the lens. The measurement angle is 33º. 2) The shutter speeds scale has marks for 1/5, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, 1/200, 1/400 and 1/800sec beside the regular numbers and the f stop scale has intermediate marks between the regular numbers. They help for a more exact exposure setting if you have old cameras like the 2.8C , 'cord IV, Voss Diax IIa RF, Contax II etcetera with some shutter speeds using the older numbers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0blZgtwUVKQ Carlos --- Rollei List - Post to rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - Subscribe at rollei_list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the subject field OR by logging into www.freelists.org - Unsubscribe at rollei_list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the subject field OR by logging into www.freelists.org - Online, searchable archives are available at //www.freelists.org/archives/rollei_list
