Sekonic L-308X Flashmate

This light meter is exceptionally accurate and serves as a compact tool for measuring ambient and flash light. Equipped with a sliding lumisphere, the L-308X is capable of measuring both ambient and reflected light through a lens with a 40° angle of acceptance. This meter also has a wide measurement range of 0 to 19.9 EV at ISO 100 and can work with flash light in a range of f/1.0 to f/90.9 at ISO 100. Repeatability is also important in metering, which the L-308X offers with a rating of 0 to 19.9 EV at ISO 100.

To keep up with the demands of modern image creators who move from job to job, the L-308X series offers three metering modes:

Photo Mode
The L-308X offers full exposure control for photographers on location or in the studio. Metering data for flash and ambient light metering is clearly displayed on the screen, as is ambient light metering. In addition to Shutter Priority Mode, Aperture Priority Mode provides photographers with worry-free metering when depth of field is critical.

HD Cine Mode
Provides cinematographers with a compact solution for scouting locations or as a quick solution for fast on-set use. With the L-308X, users can choose from a range of frame rates and shutter angles while metering to within a tenth. In addition, the addition of ISO 850 is a great help to cinematographers, allowing them to take measurements in the native ISO values of many of today's professional cinema cameras.

Cine Mode
Designed with professional use in mind, the FLASHMATE L-308X can take on the challenges of digital cinematography. Choose the right combination of frame rate and shutter angle to achieve the required exposure control with one-tenth f-stop accuracy. Truly universal, the FLASHMATE L-308X offers lux (lx) and foot-candle (fc) metering for quick lighting setup in a compact, affordable and user-friendly design.
