    Ode to the light meter

    and custom white balance, I guess.

    I've never been able to get the color that I want when I am indoors. Not that it matters really, cause everything is b&w anyway.

    So today my light meter got here. Tested it out. Nothing spectacular, but the colors are very accurate, which is kinda neat. These are just cropped and resized, with no color correction or anything. And guess what, this is what they acutally look like.

    Colors that are accurate. How cool is that?

    I've got a light meter but I don't use it very much. (Seconkic 508)

    So which one did you get?
