The KM-Q Light Meter with Top Display from Keks is an ultracompact OLED light meter designed for analog cameras without light meters or meters that are no longer functional. The KM-Q's compactness redefines portability, boasting a size comparable to that of a sugar cube. The aluminum housing features a 0.42" OLED display on the top, and a stylish black finish to match or accent any camera body. It is powered by a built-in rechargeable 120mA battery, supported by a USB-C charging port, providing up to 20 hours of continuous operation.

The KM-Q uses a VEML7700 high-accuracy ambient light and a 16-bit digital resolution sensor. It ensures higher accuracy and better reliability, guaranteeing a more accurate reading. The 30° average metering angle provides an equivalent 50mm lens view.

Q: 3. What this meter be good for someone trying to stop using auto mode and learn manual mode on their camera?

A: Possibly. It could help you understand the difference between a reflective reading (what all cameras give you) and an incident reading. (this meter can give you reflective and incident readings. And if you're planning to use studio flash it can be invaluable. But you can learn a lot just by putting your camera in manual mode, put your camera's meter in spot mode, and then just pay attention to how the camera indicates changes in exposure value (EV) when you put the spot on subjects of different brightness. Take pictures using the different readings and see how the overall picture brightness shifts.

Q: 7. Would it be able to do a cordless setup with the new Godox XProS TTL Wireless Flash Trigger?

A: Handheld light meters measure light, therefore nothing to trigger. Regardless of the light brand or model, once you trigger the lights (via a wired or wireless transmitter) the Sekonic will give you a measurement. You will need to imput ISO and decide what kind of measurement you want, i.e. f stop or shutter speed. Set the Sekonic to read flash and place it in front of your subject with the dome aimed toward the light source. The display will show ISO, f stop and shutter speed once the flash has been triggered.
