Features at a glance

• Extremely limited edition collectors classic
• Special burgundy and rose gold (rather than black)
• Analogue light metering with swivel head
• No battery amorphous photo cell design
• 180º Lumisphere for incident measurements

The Sekonic L398A Studio Deluxe III Meter swivel head allows you to hold down the metering button and ‘walk the set’ to check light levels. Release the button and the needle locks down the meter’s analog display needle for quick and easy to read exposure calculations. Exposures are displayed for both still and cine applications.

Incident measurements can be taken with the 180-degree Lumisphere for general readings of three-dimensional objects. You can also use the Lumi selective area readings, measuring the lighting ratios between highlights and shadow areas or light falling on flat-field objects such as artwork, measurements outdoors or under bright studio lights.

For reflected readings, a flat Lumigrid replaces the Lumisphere. The Sekonic L-398A Studio Deluxe III makes an ideal prime or back-up meter for still or motion picture shooters.

Instant view of full range of aperture and shutter combinations

The Studio Deluxe III analog dial gives you a complete range of exposure settings for both stills and video applications in a glance. The analog needle indicates the brightness in foot-candles.

No-battery Amorphous photosensor

An amorphous photosensor has been adopted, eliminating the need for batteries entirely!
