Analyzing Function
A simultaneous
reading of flash and ambient light is analyzed. The readings are displayed in
three different ways on the LCD:
1. Combined readings of flash and
ambient
2. Percentage of flash in the total exposure
3. Simultaneous
display of flash, ambient and combined readings on the analog display
Retractable Lumisphere
A built-in adjustable incident
dome (Lumisphere) provides full measuring in the standard position or when
retracted, provides cosine corrected light readings for individual light source
measurements or flat artwork.
Memory Mode
9
memory banks are available in both Aperture Priority and Shutter Priority Modes,
making contrast evaluation and averaging possible in both
modes.
Illuminated Direct Display
Both shutter
speeds and apertures can be displayed in full, 1/2 or 1/3 step increments to
accommodate most camera manufacturer’s settings.
Exposure and
Calibration Compensation
Exposure compensation of +/-9.9 EV
Calibration compensation of +/-1.0 EV
Dual ISO
Settings
Allows the photographer to take single light readings
and display the exposure settings in two different ISO film speeds such as
negative film and Polaroid proofing film. The second ISO setting is also ideal
for calculating exposure compensation such as filter factors or bellows factors,
without having to change the original film speed settings.
Cine
Speeds
Complete range of full and half-frame speeds from 2 to
360 fps (frames per second)
Full-Featured Flash
Measurements
1. Cord Flash Mode (Cumulative and
Non-Cumulative)
2. Cordless Flash Mode (Cumulative and Non-Cumulative)
3.
Radio Triggering Mode
All Weather Design
All
buttons, switches and compartments are sealed and the meter housing has been
constructed with durable, rugged conditions in mind. Ideal for shooting in
sandy, rainy or humid conditions.
Optional Plug-in Radio
Transmitter Module
Electronic flash units and/or cameras can be
triggered wirelessly from either the L-358 FLASH MASTER meter’s optional
plug-in, multi-channel digital radio transmitter. No more tripping over sync
cords, or fumbling with PC connectors. Compatible with all PocketWizard Digital
Radio Receivers, these meters can simultaneously trigger and measure your
electronic flash units up to 100 feet away. You can also select through the
meter’s software, “Quad Triggering mode” which provides you with up to four
zones of lighting control remotely. Now you can individually measure several
flash units wirelessly with the touch of the meter’s measuring button, without
walking over to each light and turning them on or off. You can even trigger
motor driven cameras from the meter. Part of the Digital Wireless Freedom
system, the L-358 FLASH MASTER is a wireless exposure meter and exposure maker.
