Make it Monday: Which Light Meter?

Make it Monday: Which Light Meter?

When you become a photography student at AIPOD, you'll be asked to buy a handheld light meter - one that meters both incident and reflective light.  This can seem like a daunting task! I wanted to share a video with you from Mark Walace (from AdoramaTV but now seen on MAC on Campus) goes over three different Sekonic light meters: the Sekonic L-758, Sekonic L-478 and my personal favorite, the Sekonic L-308!


Before deciding on which meter you may like to use, you want to consider your budget. Which one of these meters best suits your budget? The next thing to consider is what features are you most interested in for your purposes as a student? What features might you be interested in as you move towards becoming a professional photographer? To shop around for a meter that suits you, click "here".
