Product Description
Claimed as the world’s first multi-function light meter with exposure profiling and wireless triggering, the Sekonic Digital Master L-758DR has been designed for professional photographers who shoot with advanced digital cameras but can also be used by photographers who shoot film. No light meter we’ve encountered offers such a wide range of capabilities. For starters, it’s the most sensitive meter on the market. Reflected flash values can be measured down to f/2, while the incident light metering range extends from f/0.5 to f/161.2. Ambient light levels from EV-2 to EV 22.9 can also be measured. Claimed measurement accuracy is within +/- 0.1 EV. No built-in camera meter can cover anything like these ranges. Sekonic_L-758DR In appearance, the L-758DR has many of the features of a traditional hand-held meter, with a translucent dome (known by Sekonic as the ‘Lumisphere’) for measuring incident light and a 1-degree spot viewfinder for analysing reflected light. The viewfinder is dioper-adjustable, although not over a huge range. When the Lumisphere is retracted, which is done by rotating a surrounding, knurled ring, the sensor can be used for measuring individual light sources or flat artwork. The extended position is ideal for measuring three-dimensional light sources. Shifting from retracted to extended is fast and straightforward. Buttons on the front panel switch the power on and off, select between average and brightness difference (contrast) measurements, access two independent ISO settings, select mid tones and clear the internal memory. The mode button below these is used in conjunction with a jog wheel to select the measurement mode from ambient, auto-reset cordless flash, cord flash and wireless flash options. A rotating dial around the viewfinder eyepiece selects between incident and reflected metering modes. The measurement button sits just below this dial. The Memory button, which inputs user-defined settings, is located below the viewfinder lens on the side panel. A built-in USB port below the Memory button allows the L-758DR to be connected to a computer for data transfer and so users can download firmware upgrades. Exposure Measurement In many ways, the L-758DR works like a traditional meter, combining four different types of metering: Ambient, Incident, Reflected and Flash. But unlike most meters, it can simultaneously analyse and display values for flash and ambient light with a single press of the measurement button, enabling photographers to assess the correct balance between different lighting types. Meter readings are displayed in three ways on the data LCD: Combined flash and ambient light readings; Readings showing the percentage of flash in the total exposure; Simultaneous display of analogue values for flash, ambient and combined readings. Because measured values can be memorised and retained in both reflected and incident measuring modes, users can measure a midtone value (for example) in a scene in incident mode, memorise it then switch to reflected spot mode to measure highlight and shadow values. This makes it easy to view where each set of values will fall in the subject’s brightness range before the shot is taken. A built-in light in the L-758DR’s viewfinder can be switched on to illuminate a data display that provides information on the luminance values detected, aperture value (in f-number, EV or an averaged value that indicates subject contrast) and exposure compensation or calibration compensation, depending on the selected mode. The LCD contains a full data set, which varies, depending on whether still photography or cine mode is selected. An analogue scale along the bottom of the screen displays measurements as apertures or EV values with indicators for memorised and averaged values. Dynamic range and clipping point indicators can also be shown on this scale. Sensor Profiling Where the L-758DR really stands out is in its ability to ‘profile’ the sensor of a digital camera and use this profile to provide precise exposure control. Profiles from up to three different cameras can be stored in the meter’s memory. This function is necessary because different camera sensors respond to light in different ways. Not only do CCD and CMOS imagers have different characteristics, even sensors from the same camera model can have ISO values that differ by up to about half a stop. They can also vary in dynamic range as well as the points at which they start blowing out highlights and blocking up shadow details. Radio Triggering The L-758DR comes with a built-in RT-32 Pocket Wizard- compatible radio triggering system that eliminates the need for synch cords, making flash photography fast and easy. To use the system, each electronic flash unit must be fitted with a suitable receiver or transceiver. Users can then control up to four channels via four dual-purpose buttons on the control panel. The selected channel is displayed on the meter’s LCD. Pressing the measurement button triggers the selected flash and measures its output simultaneously. With additional Pocket Wizard triggering radios and receivers, studio photographers can activate both flash units and a camera with the Sekonic meter.
