Starlite 2 Exposure Meter

Ambient, Flash and Spot Meter


The Gossen Starlite 2 Universal Exposure Meter is a professional universal meter that is suitable for a wide variety of lighting scenarios including ambient, flash and spot. It is also capable of metering for photometric values such as lux and foot candles. These kinds of illuminance measurements work with in both ambient and flash modes. It also features a unique waterproof housing, making it a great choice for working at sea, in humid conditions, difficult weather, and more.

For general photographic use, the meter measures and analyses light that strikes your subject, regardless of the object's reflectivity. It only takes illuminance into consideration, not object brightness. For the real purist, the Starlite 2 is geared to the Zone System and can give brightness values for all gray tones within a scene.

In flash mode, it calculates the number of flashes required for a given resolution and it will analyse the light to figure the brightness ratio of the scene. It takes contrast into consideration and rads from the brightest to darkest areas to produce the correct exposure solution.

The Starlite 2 Universal Exposure Meter comes with a carrying case, strap, AA Battery, and instruction manual.
