Tetrode said:Depending on the number of features/functions a meter has, they range anywhere between $250-1000.
The cheapest new Sekonic with flash and incident metering - the 308 should be about $300 or thereabouts.
The cheapest Polaris costs about $250 I believe.
Used Minolta IVs are about $250-300 - the Minoltas are very good meters.
Halfmoon said:... but usually, light meter is only used in studio right???
photobum said:Not true. I use a light meter both in and out of my studio. I even use my light meter in the darkroom.
BTW, I have a Minolta Flash Meter V and a Sekonic 508.
hondasleeper said:Gotta love those Sekonic meters, 2 in one Spot meter and incident, plus if you use pocket wizards, no damn sync cord to trip over.
photobum said:You are absolutely right. Both my Minolta and Sekonics are workhorses. One for portraiture and the other for still life. There is a reason why I use the Sekonic for table-top shoots.
hondasleeper said:I have the Minolta Spot F and the Minolta V.
Can't justify getting the Sekonic just yet. I would love to have one. It's a nice to have rather than a need to have kinda thing. One thing about the Minoltas is that all the time I have had them, never had an issue with them.
hondasleeper said:I think for now I'll just stick with my Minoltas.
photobum said:Minolta makes excellent light meters. Too bad they don't anymore after being acquired by Sony.
hondasleeper said:Damn!!! I wanted to get a color temp meter.
hondasleeper said:I probably will have to do that.
