I need help deciding which flash meter to buy. Iam just learning about camera's and equipment want to start a home based studio for portraits and such. Any help would be greatly apreciated.
I am using the Nikon D70s. I went back into the web and compared the polaris with the sekonic and I am interested in the Sekonic L3085 model it seemed very good with a lot of features also. I just have to make up my mind to which one I want to buy. If I have any more questions I will write again. Thank you for your help.
Hey Berny Have not heard back from you in a while are on vacation? Any way hope you answer soon ok.

I have a Sekonic L-558 Cine spotmeter and want to read the foot lamberts on a movie screen. Apprently the meter reacts too quickly as the reading vary from 1.9 to 6.0 in a moment. It appears to be reading the light when the projector blade is obscuring the light. Does anyone know how to slow the meter reaction time or set it to average?
Hey Berny I bought the sekonic and it works great. I just joined a photograhpers guild here in town so I am hoping to learn a lot more tips and tricks from other people.I am going to enter a few photo contests to see if my photo's win or show any promises down the road.Any way write when you can.

No such thing as "the best". You get equipment based on your needs.
There's Novatron, Alien Bees, Norman, Lowel, etc. Pick and chose what works best for your particular needs. Trying to determine "the best" is foolhardy.
Does anyone have any example photo's using the Smith Victor fl150? I would like to see results of these units. I ordered two fl150's for a begining in personal studio work.
