Gossen Digisix Light Meter
Features in Detail
Digisix: The Light Meter That Fits In The Palm Of Your Hand
Digisix is a Digital/Analog exposure meter. It's great looking,
great value and a true travel companion that's packed with more
features than you'd ever expect. The Digisix is small enough to
sit comfortably on your camera's hot shoe (with optional shoe
adapter), and sports a digital read-out and analog scale for
ambient light levels that can be measured in reflective or
incident mode. Digital read-out in EV is easily transferred to a
setting ring where all the shutter speed/f-stop combinations can
be read at a glance.
But the Digisix doesn't stop there. Not only is it an
exposure meter, but it also offers a functioning clock with
alarm, a timer for timing long exposures, plus a precision
digital thermometer which measures temperatures and stores a
high and low value. Digisix is the mini meter with max features.
Gossen Digisix Light Meter Key Features
- Incident and Reflected Light Measuring Modes
- The Digisix sports a digital read-out and analog scale
for ambient light levels that can be measured in reflective
or incident mode.
- Contrast Metering In Ambient Light
- With the press of a button, the metering mode can be
changed to contrast measurement for total control of the
shot.
- Storage of Values Measured
- The last two values are retained in memory.
- Easy to Use
- The operation of the Digisix is particularly easy, and
will be familiar to users of Gossen meters. The measurement
is taken and then applied to the analog setting ring. Once
this has been done, all the available shutter speed/f-stop
combinations can be seen at a glance.
- Compact
- Just bigger than a matchbox and weighing just four
ounces, the Digisix is portable enough to accompany any
photographer on the move. The Digisix is small enough to sit
comfortably on your camera's hot shoe (with optional shoe
adapter).
- Microprocessor Controlled Operation
- The metering system is one of the most advanced ever
seen in such a small meter: a sbc photo diode with a
measuring range of EV 0 to 18. Adjustments to the ISO
ratings are automatically recalibrated into the exposure
reading.
- Digital LCD Display of Readout in 1/3 Stops
- Each measurement is displayed in EV with 1/3 stop
increments. In all modes, fine adjustments to 1/3 stop can
be made and recorded.
- Range Over or Range Under Signal
- Timer Function
- Up to 30 minutes.
- Watch and Alarm Function
- Clock with alarm. Adjustable to 12 or 24 hours time.
- Temperature Readout
- Current temperature plus high and low memory.
