- I travel around the state of Oaxaca, Mexico with my Leica M6 and Pentax 67 cameras, and work with film. I use the new Reveni Labs Incident Meter as my light meter.

Thank you for another great video Todd❤❤. Love your love ❤️ of Mexico
Thanks, it really is a wonderful place to roam around.😉
I’m so used to seeing you in snow. Fun video and happy you could make a trip.
Thanks. So tired of the snow!!
Nice job on the video. I agree, when I am at a busy shoot, wedding etc., I don't have time to get lost in menus. Nice little meter for what it is.
Thanks, but hard to beat for the money.
Enjoyed this one Todd. Mexico looks amazing. I was going to get an around the neck or pocketable meter at some point this year. This is interesting. Cheers
Thanks Chris, Mexico is warm and wonderful. For the money this is a great little meter.
@@toddkorolphoto great vibe from your videos too mate. Cheers ☘️
I would love a small meter like this but I kind of agree with you about the form factor not being ideal. Is remote triggering available for the flash mode?
Yes, Flash sync port: 3.5mm mono, low and high voltage compatible (400VDC maximum). The thing is it's a cool little meter that you can't knock too much simply because it's a great price and it's accurate. I had no exposures that were off. Now if this were $900, then we would have to chat. But I will definitely travel with this and use this.
I also agree on the form factor. I doesn't seem comfortable to me. Also it might be your style of shooting but most of your colour photographs seam underexposed by more than a stop. I have the original (1st) ligtmeter from reveni and Ive noticed it gives me bad reading unless i point it half way down, my first roll was underexposed too. I reverted to using Sekonic 308x and my own judgement
Yes indeed that is my shooting style, and how I processed the images after I scanned them. In this great light I do like deep blacks and look for contrasty situations. I realize the whole color negative style these days is to overexpose your negative by a stop. But I am trying to create a mood. Thanks for watching.
@@toddkorolphoto I see, thank you for your reply!
A digital camera is a lot more useful to determine exposure for a film camera than any light meter.
Previewing the effect of using multiple flash units is especially handy with a digital camera. I used to shoot 4x5 and 120 chrome film on architectural interiors and advertising shoots with as many as twenty flash units and previewed on countless Polaroids. I didn't use a meter very often.
I've shot those subjects digitally while tethered to a computer for the past 20 years...never meter.
Yes a digital camera is also great for determining exposure, although I did not travel with one.
I don’t know if you are aware, but your video’s music is from Spain and it’s got nothing to do with Mexico or the landscape.
On the photography, I agree with one of the other comments, pictures look like 1 stop under.
Glad you enjoyed the shooting experience, though.
Yes some of the music was Mexican and some was Spanish. Just what I had available to me from the library I use.
