The handheld light meter market is a specialized segment within the broader photography and cinematography equipment industry. Handheld light meters are portable devices used by photographers and filmmakers to measure illumination levels and ensure the correct exposure for their photographs or footage. These meters assess the amount of light in a scene and provide readings that help users to determine the optimal aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings for their cameras. While modern digital cameras often come with built-in light meters, professional and serious amateur photographers frequently use handheld meters for more precise control and measurement, especially in complex lighting situations. This market catifies to both the needs of still photography and the unique requirements of motion picture production. Handheld light meters come in various forms, including incident light meters, which measure the light falling on the subject, and reflected light meters, which measure the light reflected from the subject. Besides, some meters offer additional features, such as flash metering, spot metering and the ability to read ambient light levels, catering to both studio and location work. Key players in the handheld light meter market include Sekonic, renowned for their comprehensive range of light meters for photographers and cinematographers; Gossen, a German company with a history of precision instruments; and Kenko, offering a variety of photographic accessories, including light meters. Other notable brands are Minolta, which, despite no longer manufacturing new light meters, still has a presence in the market through vintage and second-hand devices, and Lumu, known for developing innovative light meter attachments Show Less Read more
