Still popping back to these 10 years later to refresh.
Hope you are doing well, thanks Joe

And do not forget the colour filters for black and white photography
in three different strength: yellow, orange, red, blue and green.
And all the 24 CC filters for daylight and tungstan colour film.

Excellent and thank you

Some old cameras only work in half stops. I guess that option is for those who use those cameras.

@Jp421JP 1 year ago

1/2 a stop or even 1 stop increments are useful for manual film cameras where shutter speed is in full stops

3:35 no idea why use 1/2 stops? Because that is what many lenses do, eg my medium format Hasselblad CF and Fuji 6x9 lenses only have 1/2 stop differences for shutter. Typically only adjust shutter for landscape.

@MedinaCliff 9 years ago

so after switching option 17/2 now when in spot metering the memory button is under the eye piece ....correct?

I have calibrated my 758. My problem is that my flash readings are way underexposed. Is there a different calibration for the flash?

@isaacmartinez4310 10 years ago

Thanks for the vid.
Yes for large format photographers like myself, our lens apertures are in half stops

Hi Sekonic, Can L758DR be used for cinematography reading of ambient and continuous lights using the T priority mode and setting the fps to 24,25 etc ??

@martinvddonk173 10 years ago

Good video. One important thing, the iso2 mode for filter compensation. I am using a big stopper which is 10 stops, the meter is only till 3 or 5 stops so not enough to use this function with a big stopper ND filter.
