Sekonic offers a table to convert EV to lux or footcandles:

Using an incident meter set to ISO 100, 1500 lux corresponds to an EV of approximately 9.25.

What is a "normal" light to look at prints under, when you're judging darkness, contrast, etc? (I dry my prints before looking at them, so dry-down is not a factor.)
