SOLD: Minolta Flashmeter IV - Pro Photo / Cinema Flash Meter

namebrandon

For sale is my gently used, in great functioning condition, Minolta Flashmeter IV. This meter is really advanced. It's got more features than many other new meters on the market today. You can meter for shadows, highlights, even have it analyze ambient and flash at the same time and calculate how each is contributing to your exposure.

$135 pp gift / shipped to you. This makes a great, cheaper alternative to the Sekonic 358, especially if you're just getting started in studio / flash photography.


Photography Features
Light sensitivity from EV -2 to EV 19.5, and measurements in 10th of a stop.
Aperture / f # from f/0.7 to f/90
Shutter speed from 30 minutes to 1/8000 (ambient), 30 minutes to 1/1000 (flash)
ISO adjustable from ISO 8 to ISO 6400 in 1/3 stop increments

Guide number feature allows you to determine guide number values for a given flash / bulb.

Cinema features

8,12,16,18,24,32,64 fps



You can see the manual here, since it's hard to find a print copy. That should answer any questions about functions, and tech specs, but I'm happy to field some questions as well.
