Product Description

Sekonic's new LITEMASTER PRO L-478D meter is the world's first touch-screen-operated light meter. It has an array of unique, must-have features for both motion and still story tellers. Its compact size is both instantly familiar and comfortable to use. The large LCD (2.7") displays ambient, flash, cine and a host of other information in a clear and understandable way. Settings are made by simply touching or sliding a finger over the screen. The L-478D can be quickly calibrated to your camera using Sekonic's Data Transfer software and either Sekonic or X-Rite Brand targets or by manually inputting data to the DTS program or on the meter itself. Radio Frequency and Compatibility The PocketWizard triggering systems use different frequencies in accordance with laws and regulations of the countries where they are marketed. Before purchasing a product using the PocketWizard system, be sure it is compatible with local regulations and the other PocketWizard products you use. Flash Analyzing Function The L-478-series meters are especially useful when using flash to lighten shadows or reduce background detail. That's because they measure ambient and flash simultaneously and automatically indicate the percentage of flash in the total exposure. Calibrated to your Camera with Exposure Profiling Every camera system is unique. Optical, mechanical and imaging components all act on each other to produce slight differences in the dynamic range and exposure. Enhanced HD Cine / Cine Features Today's digital cameras are boundless and a variety of cameras can be used in a single production. The L-478 series has two motion capture modes to fit camera in use. Infinite Frame Rate/Shutter Angle Special effects and light sources can push standard camera settings to their limits That's why the L-478 series also allows creating unique frame rates and shutter angles to .000 to enable precise exposure and lighting, producing the very best images and reduce time in postproduction.
