I have the small cube version of the Keks meter, with the top display. Very easy to use.

I recently purchased the KM02. It is a marvel of features and technology. The unhappy part is that all of those lesser used adjustments are various combinations of those 4 buttons, and the learning curve to operate the meter is huge. Fortunately, I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to overcome that hurdle, I hope. I got this to put an on-camera meter on two rarely used cameras from the late 1950s, a Konica IIIA and a Konica Pearl IV. My meter included two alternative "feet" to make sure there is a perfect fit to the camera cold/hot shoe, extra retaining screws, and the appropriate wrench to do a swap. Note that all of these meters use an internal, rechargeable battery, so if you use it rarely, you'll probably have to recharge it before renewed use.

Since leaving film photography in 2004 never used the histogram, so easy😂

Wow flashback to 70s. I remember carrying a handheld meter with me and a small pocket camera book on exposure settings which I may still have.

Hi Craig, I don't shoot with Film but if I did these Keks external Meters would be of great help to me. I could live without a Histogram, but since my Nikon camera has one, what the heck I'll continue using it. Another nice album Craig, cheers 😊.

I'm teaching my brain to evaluate my exposures by shooting in M mode with a fixed shutter speed and guessing the apertures. Here where I live it turns out more like the sunny 13 rule. And maybe even wider as autumn and winter give us less light.

Hey, Craig. Good video. I think you’re missing a market for these. Most consumer Nikon DSLRs won’t meter with older film era ai/ais lenses. Don’t know about consumer Z mount cameras. These meters could bring a lot of older lenses back into use. I’ve used an old 50mm on my D50 and metered by eye, experiment and sunny16, but just having a sugar cube in the shoe that said “200, f8 and be there! would be great.

I don’t have AI but plenty of AI-S and metering works perfectly with my Nikon DSLR. The camera knows at what aperture I am at and it just measures the light going through. Even with AI, without reporting of the aperture, I think it would work.
