New Gossen Digisix


DigisixThe Digisix is the newest ambient light meter in the Gossen family of high quality meters. No one has a digital meter this small on the market today.

Ultra-compact, but packed with features, the Gossen Digisix does much more than just determine exposure. As an exposure meter, the Digisix is a prime example of Gossen's high precision and reliability, based on Gossen-specific calibration and German engineering.

The Digisix is small enough to sit comfortably on your camera's hot shoe (with optional shoe adapter). The meter sports a digital read-out and an analog scale for ambient light levels that can be measured in reflective or incident mode. But the Digisix doesn't stop there--

Not only is it an exposure meter, but it also offers a functioning clock with an alarm, a timer for timing long exposures, plus a digital thermometer which measures temperatures and stores a high and low value. All of this fits into an unbelievably small package (3 x 2 x 1 inch) with trendy styling, which is easy and comfortable to operate.

The Digisix is microprocessor controlled and runs on a Lithium battery type CR 2032.

The meter weighs approximately 1.5 oz including battery, and comes with a carry case, strap and battery. $149.
