An Advanced Way of Metering - The Datacolor LightColour Meter uses wireless Bluetooth technology to continuously send both light exposure and colour temperature information directly to your smartphone, running the free Datacolor LightColour Meter app for iOS or Android. More data is delivered to you instantly for streamlined lighting set-up and precise exposure.

Ideal for Both New & Experienced Light Meter Users - The value-added combination of having both a light and colour meter in one convenient, Bluetooth-enabled device gives you multiple products for the price of one. The meter's remote functionality delivers all the valuable info you need in real-time to your phone in a clear, concise format while eliminating the need to run back and forth to your camera, saving you time and effort.

Seamless Meter Synchronisation - The Datacolor LightColour Meter app lets you sync multiple LightColour Meters to your phone. This allows you to get all the light and colour data at once, for unparalleled creative control. Streamlining the lighting & camera set-up process for proper exposure reduces post-production editing.

Multi-Media Use - Whether you're shooting stills, video or cinema, the Datacolor LightColour Meter also includes the convenience of remote sensing & multiple sensors in a small yet powerful tool that works in a studio or on location.

Eliminates Exposure Guesswork - Metering allows you to take the guesswork out of managing your lighting and setting your camera's exposure. For instance, you can set foreground/background lighting ratios for a consistent look and set lights to fill shadows to your specifications.

More Precise than a Camera's Auto Mode - Using a dedicated device like the LightColour Meter offers more precise control over exposure by taking measurements in any areas of a scene you select. Get consistent results across different lighting conditions, especially in challenging situations like high contrast or mixed lighting, for greater creative control over your image.

A Dream for Green Screens - The Datacolor LightColour Meter's remote functionality is perfect for metering large areas to get uniform lighting for things like green screens. The device can accurately meter light and colour temperature from a distance of up to 80 feet. By using and syncing several meters, you can cover a wide area at once for even faster, more efficient lighting setups.

Hands-Free Functionality - The rare earth magnet on the back of the meter has accessories for mounting or can be attached magnetically for convenient placement. A 1?4"-20 threaded mount for attaching to light stands and tripods allows you to place the meter next to your subject while you work on lighting. The through-hole for lanyards allows you to hang the device anywhere for convenient access or even in your photo/video scene. The included alligator clip lets you hang the meter off clothing or other fabrics.

Constant Communication - In addition to having your light and colour temperature data continuously streamed to your phone via the app, the device itself has LEDs that let you know the mode your meter is in, display the connection status lets you set up to 15 alarm notifications for light changes.

Flashes of Brilliance - The 3.5 mm jack lets you attach a sync cable for triggering a strobe/flash if needed. The Datacolor LightColour Meter can also detect a flash without a sync cable from the sensor inside. The power & measure button turns the meter on and off and also triggers manual light reading including firing your wired flash.

An Agile, On-Set Assistant - The crush-proof, spring-loaded light diffusion dome toggles between raised and lowered positions. When the dome is raised, the device can be used for exposure metering of people or other 3D objects and multiple light sources at the same time. When the dome is pressed down, it's ready to measure colour temperature or metering flat objects or single light sources.

The Wireless Advantages - Because metered information is delivered to your phone instead of on the device itself, it's easy to read even when outdoors or in brighter light conditions. The familiarity of mobile phone use also makes the LightColour Meter perfect for both individuals who have never used a meter before as well as experienced users transitioning to this wireless functionality.

Hardworking, Easy to Handle - The Datacolor LightColour Meter's design makes it easy to handle and comfortable to hold. The meter is rugged and can even withstand being dropped, and unlike traditional meters, your info will remain displayed on your phone. The device's portable size and protective case make it an ideal on-the-go tool to always keep in your camera bag. The Datacolor LightColour Meter only uses 2 AAA batteries for up to 40 hours of continuous use, to keep working as hard as you do.
