2-1-1 Outline of software

1)Sekonic Data Transfer Software Exposure Profiling Program offers several choices for custom calibrating the L-758DR (L-758D or L-758CINE). Below is the flow chart of menu selections within the program.

Cameras selection	Measuring method
Light source
• CAMERA 1

• CAMERA 2	• Ambient		• Incident
	• Flash		• Reflected
• CAMERA 3
		Contents of setting
ISO sensitivity		• Compensation value
ISO3		• Clipping point (-)
～		• Dynamic range (-)

ISO8000 • Dynamic range (+)

• Clipping point (+)

2)Up to 3 cameras, 2 light sources and 2 measuring methods can be selected and set for custom calibration. Each camera, light source or measuring method is stored, recalled and displayed within the light meter's internal software, once the data has been transfer to it.

3)Data can be entered into each of the setting parameters (Compensation Value, Dy- namic Range +/- and Clipping Point +/-) individually or by using the "Two Points Input" calculator. The "Two Point Input" calculator automatically computes two settings perim- eters and sets all values from ISO 3 to ISO 8000.
