Illuminati\u00a0is a triangle that measures light and color and transmits them to a smartphone, it\u00a0is an essential tool for serious photographers and filmmakers. The most useful ones not only measure the level of light and translate it into an f-stop, shutter speed or ISO value, but also displays the colour characteristics of the light. They will also measure the bursts of light emitted by a strobe or a speed-light.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Illuminati Light Meter has an edge: it\u2019s the first ever Bluetooth light meter created, and it comes with an app that supports more than one light meter and that opens up a whole range of possibilities that make it stand out.<\/div>\n
Having one Illuminati triangle it can be paired to multiple mobile devices, as the assistant cameraman or gaffer handling the light meter it enables DOP to see the reading and adjust accordingly instantly by himself when he is at a distance with camera.<\/div>\n

The light meter itself is a triangular \u2013 or rather, flat pyramid-shaped \u2013 device that fits the palm of an average man\u2019s hand. The three corners are home to functionality. The first contains the On\/Off switch, the second has a mini-jack interface for corded flash triggering \u2013 supporting the same functionality as a top-of-the-line meter \u2013 and the third is home to holes for a lanyard.<\/div>\n
On one side of the device, there\u2019s a quarter inch thread for mounting the meter on a tripod. At the apex of the pyramid shape, you\u2019ll find the white dome that can be raised for measuring light levels and lowered by pushing it for colour-related measurements. The three ridges that run from the dome to the corners have LEDs that change colour depending on the information the unit is communicating. The whole top is fixed to the base using three very strong magnets. To install the two AAA batteries,The back of the light meter has a strong magnet, so you can fix it to metal objects or to one of the two accessories that come in the small carrying case. Inside the unit, there seem to be at least two sensors: one for measuring ambient light and one for measuring flash or continuous light.<\/div>\n

A badly lit green screen won\u2019t mask out properly.\u00a0 Using a grid of Illuminati meters in front of your green screen lets you get behind the lights and adjust them while seeing the results in Continuous Mode in the palm of your hand. The LEDs on the meters will show you which areas are too bright or too dark. When all the meters glow green, you\u2019re good to go<\/p>\n

Matching Lights<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

You\u2019ve got many lights on your set. They may be rented and unknown, or from different manufacturers.\u00a0 Plus, not all lights are made the same (or accurately report or display their color temperature).\u00a0 On top of that, many bulbs drift color temperature over time with use.<\/p>\n

With the Illuminati meter, enables\u00a0 to measure, know and correct all your light sources to match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This light meter measures both the (either direct or reflected) light readings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
