What's your 5 month review of the Reveni Labs Lumo Light Meter? Just curious. Also, do any of you work on film sets and use it there, too?​


I also posted this question on Reddit because I am looking for answers from people that have used it a lot. So far I've only seen 'first impressions.'

My question on Reddit:
I came across this meter while surfing the web yesterday. So far I've only seen 'first impressions.'

I wonder how you folks are liking it because I want something that hits the portability/functionality sweet spot. I prefer not to pull out my phone if I can avoid it. My current incident meter works fine. It's just bigger than I'd like, doesn't go past 800 ISO setting, and lacks a few cine shutter speeds. I have a spot meter I'm alright with for special occasions.

P.s. I would love to see a picture of your Lumo next to the Sekonic L308 for a size comparison if any of you have both. I have neither.

This thread was created to share experiences with this very promising light meter:https://www.reveni-labs.com/reveni-labs-lumo

I'll start: I hardly have a shortage of light meters (eight (8) as of last count), but I was so impressed by the promised specs that I wanted one.
I ordered on Wednesday after firing off a couple of questions about DHL delivery, which were very promptly answered by Matt. Now, I'm awaiting delivery!

My regular meter is Metered Light's Pocket Spot or the Sekonic L758 for Large Format, and a little Gossen DigiFlash for anything else, so I was keen to get the Lumo for it's small size, rechargeability, colour temp measuring and general innovation. It does all those things, but I can't say I've warmed to the menu system yet, and have found it confusing in the field - the simplicity/accuracy of the Pocket Spot makes it my go to, and the wireless triggering of the Sekonic makes it the perfect studio beast. The Gossen is just so easy to read (especially now I'm in my 50's and my close vision has gone South, boo). I will keep trying though, as the Lumo is really nicely made and packed with features...
