light meter for flash and studio strobe

[jonneymendoza]

hi all.

i have a elincvhrome brx250 and brx500 stroble along with a 600ex canon flashgun and a yungnuo 560 flash gun too and all get triggered using the yungnu 620 remote triggers.

which basic light meter do you recommend that can trigger anything attached to a youngu radio trigger?

will something like this do?

The meter doesn't need to trigger the flashes, you just tell it to meter flash and it waits till it sees it. You can trigger it with your camera (I find that easiest) or using the test button on the trigger.

Yes I have the Sekonic L308s I would highly recommend it

The L308 is good but If you can find a second hand L558 then do - it has a 1 degree reflective spot meter too. That's useful for all sorts of things but especially for metering backgrounds as white.
