Looking for a hand held light meter geared toward b/w outdoor photos

greenspun.com : LUSENET : B&W Photo: Creativity, Etc. : One Thread

Hi all,

I am a beginner and only interested in taking outdoor black/white photos and was wondering if there is a cheap hand held light meter that is designed specifically for this. I think the first thing may be to look for is reflected light meters rather than incident - considering I am working outdoors. Any suggestions or does it not realy matter that I am not interested in color photos or indoor photography?

Thanks

Hi, Mark, Here's an online camera shop that has some light meters for sale at very reasonable prices: http://www.rubylane.com/shops/catpawfoto

The dealer is very friendly and sells only quality merchandise. I've bought a number of things from him, including a very nice vintage light meter that I use all the time.

Good luck!
