Nice explanation. So many light meter how to videos fail to mention that the choice of aperture and shutter speed is determined by the photographer.

Simple, no bull, no loud music, no shuffle dancing, just to the point.

Perfect. Thank you. Easy to understand and the reasons why to use a light meter. Too much waffle in other videos

Great video and helpful! But my American-ness can not process the way this man looks vs his super posh voice. But still, over all amazing.

This is so straight forward and helpful!

Is this as relevant with a mirrorless system and an evf?
For flashes I can understand potentially.
But dealing with a consistent light source and using an evf you can see your exposure before taking anyway.
Allowing you to correct accordingly (correct me if I'm wrong)

What were you saying about using it for multiple lights?

Hello what is the model of the light meter you’re using?

[skillcubator]

Hi,

Great video. One question. Is the light meter and flash meter two separate things?

Thanks & Regards,

The underexposed video males you wonder if he was exposing for the sky or . . . . .

2:33 did you use the camera's spot meter?

[sigmagamer]

I'm not sure but maybe you are misunderstanding something.Old days, film cameras only have single TTL sensor which was able to read the average of light value went through the lens into the film, so basically old film camera TTL meters are similar to matrix metering.So back then old photographers were using handheld meters for meansuring the reflection specifically from subject/model.But nowaday you can use spot metering instead to solve the problem.

Just keep shooting with manual. You will eventually know the appropriate setting for the shot.

Took me 5 times to figure out what you were saying at the beginning "all modern dslr's have a built-in metre", due to your accent and speed of speech. Finally, I had to use Youtube to slow it down to 0.75 speed to get it. However, the rest of the time your speaking was clear and un-inflected at normal video speed. Overall, it was an excellent video. Just thought you should know.
