4-2-2. Measuring with Reected Light System

Use 5-degree Viewnder, reected light attachment,

(sold separately) to make reected light readings with

the L-478D/DR.

This method measures the brightness (luminance)

of the light reected from the subject. It is useful for

distant objects such as landscapes, when you cannot

go to the position of the subject , or for metering

subjects that generate light (neon signs, etc), highly

reective surfaces or translucent subjects (stained

glass, etc).

Reected light measurements are made at the

camera position by aligning the circle in the

viewnder eyepiece with the subject area to be

measured.

See operating manual included with 5-Degree

Viewnder (sold separately).

1. Remove the Lumisphere

The lumisphere unit is removed by holding

both the upper and lower sections of

Lumisphere retracting ring and turning it

to the left while pushing the Lock lever

downward

2. Attach the Lumisphere

Align the mark on the Lumisphere with the

mark on the meter head and, while pressing

it in, turn the Lumisphere to the right until it

clicks into place.

Check to see that the Lumisphere lock lever

is engaged.

•

When attaching/detaching lumisphere or viewnder, be sure not to touch the light receiving element inside the meter

head.

•

When the light receiving element gets dirty, clean it with soft and dry cloth. Never use organic cleaners such as thinner

or benzene.
