Is a Gossen Luna Pro F the same as an SBC?

[athanasius80]

I just got a nice Luna Pro F and can only lay my hands on the SBC manual. Is it the same meter with a different name?

Thanks!

No. Unlike the SBC, the Luna Pro F has a built-in flash meter but no plugs for electrically connected attachments.

You can find a manual for the Luna Pro F here:

Gossen's also provide a good range of user guides for their older meters on their own site, under the collectors section - the Pro F being on of them. They were - two years ago at least - still servicing the Pro F (threw mine on a concrete floor - came back as good as new).

I just found this thread, and as it was of interest to me, I followed the link above. I just wanted to add that the Luna Pro's were marketed under different names outside the USA. The Luna Pro-SBC is listed on the Gossen site as the ProfiSix, and the Luna Pro-F is listed as the LunaSix-F.
