Sekonic L308DC DigiCineMate main features

Three Ways to Meter - Display only the specific functions you need for fast, easy operation

• HD Cine Mode: Perfect for today’s DSLR videographers. Make exposure readings and control light using shutter speeds and frame rates and get aperture settings with one-tenth stop accuracy.
• Cine Mode: Designed for digital cinematography. Select from the most useful frame rates and shutter angles for exposure control with one-tenth stop accuracy. Lux and foot-candle readout enables quick set up of lights.
• Photo Mode: Full control for traditional still-image photographers. Shutter-priority display of a full range of ambient and flash functions including Cord and Cordless flash measurement as well as ambient EV measurement.

Three Ways to Measure Light

• The Lumisphere provides incident light readings for nearly foolproof exposure readings and enables lighting that scene before the talent arrives.
• The Lumidisc is perfect for lighting green screens, adjusting ratios and taking lux and foot-candle measurements.
• Reflected light readings enable measuring the brightness of subject tones, gray cards, light sources or window light.

Calibration Compensation - Adjust the L-308DC to film or digital camera sensors or matching the L-308DC to other handheld meters.

Custom Setting - Three custom settings tune meter operations and displays to fit your camera and metering requirements.

Illuminance Measurement - Lux (lx) and foot-candle (fc) display is especially useful for cinematography, theatrical and other applications that require precise control of light source brightness. Use custom settings to select lux, foot-candle or no display.
