Gossen Sixtron/Ascor Flash meter.
The Gossen Ascor Flash meter is the US counterpart of the Gossen Sixtron
flash meter. The meter is intended for use together with flashlight only.
Regular light measurement is not possible with this meter.
The use of the
meter is very simple, just set the correct film speed, make a test flash
and read the meter. The needle is then pointing to a value, find
the value on the scale the needle is pointing to and opposite to this
value you will find the exposure time.
What we are missing on this meter is the connection for the flashlight
cable and the possibility to fire the flash from the meter by use of a
little push button.
The Sixtron has a ASA and DIN film sensitivity scale while the Ascor has
only the ASA
scale.
The big knurled knob is inviting you to turn this knob but it fixed on
the housing and can't be turned also there us no need to do so. The
center can be turned for ASA setting. |
