WTB budget spot meter


Nojus Drasutis

Recommended Posts

The Pentax analogue one is quite cheap and accurate, though it feels a bit bulky. It has separate battery types for high/low readings. But the button cell batteries for the low light level aren't available. Have to improvise with two 1.5V cells stacked. Some fiddling and research there, guys have done it.

 

The Pentax Digital spotmeter costs a bit more but is less bulky, I think the batteries are still available. It's a nice, simple meter to use.

 

These meters come up on eBay. Do your own checking first, download the manuals and see about the batteries...
