This is exactly what I needed to know, thank you! ❤

Hope it helped :) I was like in the same place...why did Sekonic release something similar but it's completely an upgrade since the glow in the dark LCD screen is super helpful for product photographers like me who shoots in complete darkness and if your a film video shooter the additional information given is helpful :)

Thanks your welcome and if your trying flash photography it's also easier to tell instead of guessing and failing many shots :)

I love the irony of this video, talking about light meters and yet the opening shot is over exposed.

Im working on video on a specific digital light meter can't say much however it's a game changer from what I can see...but I actually have the needle version sekonic light meter my grandfather used and the old vintage ones don't run on batteries can't believe its still working :)

Thank yoou for the great review! Do you know how dark it can be for the light meter still working correctly? I mostly shoot indoors under tungsten light and night photography,
@RM.TokyoPhotographer5 ай бұрын
If your shooting in a pitch black studio with tungsten lamp if u are far away the LCD glows well if you approach visable light source the LCD doesn't glow I can't say what the difference is in terms of that the light output has to be for the LCD to glow but night photography in most cases it actually glows in the dark. Unless I'm under a lampost it still glows so you won't have any problems with the 308x

Hi Ryo-san, Here in Sydney, Australia, the product is the L308X-U. Would you know if this is essentially the same as the L308X you reviewed? Thanks, Barrie

Sorry Ryo-san, I’ve just found-out that they are identical! The extra letter is to do with warranty. Barrie

Yup no problem I looked it up the X is international version while the U is United States aimed for that market they are the exact same products :)

@@RM.TokyoPhotographer Damn.. no bueno. I've just ordered a used L-308s - it says it's in good condition and was cheap so.. I'll give it a go, hopefully will be of use until Godox release a game changer. I have a feeling they will.. Good luck with your X!
