    My man! Thank you so much for the kind words! I wish I could frame this testimonial and hang it on my wall. And dude that cochlea line...

    Can't say enough about Nick Carver's course. I found he did a superb job. I also have the reveni spot meter (model I). I also have a pentax analogue which is even bigger than the digital one. However, Nick provides a get indicator to put on the analogue also. Thanks for recommending both Nick's course and the reveni meter. Loved the video!

      I also bought his course on large format and it's great as well. Makes using my Nikon pc lenses so much fun and I can't live without them now.

    Timely, I’m looking for something smaller than my Sekonic for an upcoming trip and the Reveni is looking pretty good

    If you read off a screen on the top the spot meter wouldn't be pointed at the place you wanted to meter, so you'd need to have a way to lock the readings first. I have the Pentaxt Digital spot meter and the first Reveni Spot meter. I have yet to use the Reveni because it went missing within a week of being bought and we only found it last week. I'l be updating and using it soon.
    And I also bought Nick Carvers course, and his Large Format Course.

      I would assume it would display the last settings. Not sure how it would work, just an idea.

      @@SprocketHoles It's certainly a good idea, I'd like it too, I was just pointing out a possible issue. I bought mine to carry as a backup in case my Pentax one failed. I hope it doesn't, and if it ever does I'll do my best to try and get it repaired because if I have to go back to sekonic I'll go insane.

    Accuracy of the occluded optic ? I mean if you move your hand holding the meter the reticule will move independently of your opposite eye position which you are basing the position of the reticule on?. So you could be metering a point you are not wanting to meter? Then add in spectacles - opens the scope for more error? I was going to buy one but this is giving me pause because i wear specs too.

      I was sort of wondering this as well. How do you know exactly where the meter is pointing in the first place?

    So for no use if you only have sight on one eye?

      I would assume so.

    • @mattbechberger3298
      @mattbechberger3298 3 місяці тому

      If you move it in and out of the view of your good eye, it can work but you need to "remember" what's behind the meter based on what you can still see in your peripheral vision. It's not perfect but it does work.

    Is the start up time quicker than the old one? That is the only problem with my Reveni mk 1 but great to have all that functionality in such a small form factor.

    • @SprocketHoles
      @SprocketHoles  3 місяці тому +1

      its about a second or two for me

      I changed the processor in the Mk.2, it has a bit faster boot time. It takes about half the time now. The Mk.1 always felt a little slower in LR44s compared to the AAAs too.
