I have a very old Sekonic L508 which I haven't used for a few years. My question is, do they lose sensitivity to light with age? When I use the recommended aperture the images are obviously dark with a histogram bunched up to the left. It meters at least a stop or more under what I think it should be. This happens no matter which of my cameras i use.
And yes, I do know how to meter with it.
A google search reveals that it can be tested with a lot of expensive equipment but I'd rather not bother with that and just buy a new one if age is a factor in its continued use.
Anyone have any experience with old light meters that can maybe shed some light on this?
