Can it be done, with say, a light meter for a camera? Just curious.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-08-2000 06:30 PM                     There is another thread on this matter somewhere on the forum Simply the awnser is yes and no You can balance the distribution of light with any meter but to get the actual quantity of light you need a meter with a photvoltoptic response that accounts for the flicker of the shutter Spectra Cine makes the cheapest upt o the Minolta LS100 at the top or the CCD method useing the UltraStereo Laptop method  |  IP: Logged
