Keks KM02 Premium Light Meter For Film Cameras
The Keks KM02 Premium Light Meter is a compact OLED light meter designed for classic film cameras. It mounts to your camera’s accessory shoe and gives quick, accurate reflected light readings, making it easier to get reliable exposures when using cameras without a built-in meter.
Designed with vintage cameras in mind, the KM02 has a sleek aluminium body that sits neatly on top of the camera without adding unnecessary bulk. Its compact size, simple four-button layout and clear OLED screen make it easy to use in the field, whether you are shooting casually or working more carefully with manual exposure.
The KM02 offers both aperture priority and shutter priority modes, along with single and continuous metering. In continuous mode, readings update every 0.6 seconds, while single metering lets you take a new reading with one press of the metering button.
Aperture, shutter speed and ISO stops can be set to full, half or third stops, allowing the meter to match the controls of different cameras and lenses. You can also set maximum and minimum aperture or shutter speed values, helping prevent the meter from displaying readings that are not relevant to your equipment.
Exposure compensation from -3EV to +3EV in 1/3 increments gives added flexibility when adjusting for creative preference, filters or tricky lighting. The KM02 also allows settings to be saved for up to three separate camera and lens combinations.
