Sekonic L-308S FlashMate Light Meter

L-308S FlashMate

The new pocket-sized Sekonic L-308S FlashMate is the smallest and lightest digital light meter in the Sekonic line-up. This latest Sekonic model is designed to read ambient or flash exposures in either reflected or incident modes, and displays accurate exposure readings in full, half, or third-stop increments to mirror the exposure settings of today’s DSLR and film cameras.
The L-308S delivers accurate exposure readings in full, half, or third-stop increments to mirror the exposure displays of most popular cameras. When set to full-stop mode, exposures are displayed in tenth-stop increments with a repeat accuracy of +/- 0.1 EV.
The LCD screen is designed to emulate the look and feel of the Display that its bigger brother, the Sekonic L-358 flash meter, sports. Exposure data and related information are displayed using large type and easy-to-read icons, perfectly legible in even low-level lighting conditions.
