Although all digital cameras do have a built-in flash for the enthusiastic amateur a hand-held light meter is a very useful piece of kit to keep in the camera bag.
Hand-held light meters are much more accurate than those built into a camera as they not only measure the light reflecting from a subject but, importantly, they also measure the light falling onto the subject. This is something that camera based light meters can’t do.
Obviously, to use a hand-held light meter successfully you will need a digital camera with which you can adjust settings such as shutter speed etc.
Although hand-held light meters aren’t cheap they will do much to enhance your photography and to take it to the next level.
