Sekonic L-758D Meter

Sekonic L-758D Meter

Save £60 on usual price A professional photographic light meter with 1° spot metering facility, the L-758D DigitalMaster can be precisely profiled to match the camera being used. Every digital camera has its own limited tonal range (the dynamic range) which it's capable of capturing. With digital cameras, this varies depending on the sensor type, processor and type of file compression used. Using the Sekonic Exposure Profile Target II (not supplied) a camera's exposure profile can be evaluated via a computer, and then transferred to the meter. Data can also be directly entered into the meter. In use, if highlights or shadows fall outside the camera's dynamic range, warning indicators blink on the LCD panel. Supplied with 1 x CR123A battery, case and strap.

  • The L-758D stores up to 3 profiles, so if you use one camera or film you can profile it for say, studio flash lighting, daylight, and fluorescent lighting. Or, if you use different cameras or films, they can be programmed for the most commonly used light source.
  • To profile, using the Sekonic Test Target, seven exposures are made, and separately, readings are taken with the meter to determine any difference between the camera's and meter's sensitivity.
  • The test data is then evaluated by using the eyedropper or pointer tool in an image editing program such as Photoshop to determine the RGB values. Dynamic range and clipping points can then be found.
  • The data is then entered into the Data Transfer Software (supplied with the meter) on a computer, which automatically calculates the compensation settings and sets the dynamic range and clipping points.
  • Using the provided USB cable, data is then transferred from computer to the meter. You can also enter exposure profile information directly into the meter.
  • The L-758D does not include radio triggering, but should this become desirable, can be easily adapted by purchasing the RT-32CTL Module, which fits into a compartment inside the meter.
