APPLICATIONS SUMMARY
1. Special Features of the Studio Deluxe 11
As the Studio Deluxe ll is a high precision measuring instrument, by fully utilizing its capabilities, its special functions can be displayed covering an additionally wide range of applications. Incident light measurement is an extremely practical method in actual photographic situations and is often employed by professional photographers and cinematographers. Since proper exposure can be determined even in cases where errors are easily incurred with reflected light measurement, it is extremely convenient for both color and monochrome.
The Lumisphere displays its optimum value when used for incident light measurement during color or monochrome photography of fleshtones (portrait photography in which fleshtones are considered as the main picture element for determining exposure). Since good or bad quality portrayals can be discerned even by amateurs, fleshtones become the only true standard in color photography. (They can also be given a wider range of artistic expression than visible to the naked eye.)
Well known basic principles form the foundation of the Studio Deluxell, however, plenty of latitude is provided for obtaining special effects. By allowing variations in exposure to be performed, exactly the same reproductions become possible as those learned only from experience. Utilizing the selection of accessories also opens the way to the multitude of applications described in the preceding pages.
