Default Corfield Lumimeter

Enlarging exposure meter.

Found this in a box. No idea if it works and it looks as if it was designed to plug into a light socket.

Before I recycle it does anyone have a use for it? All I ask is you cover the postage.

Nice offer, Dave. I have a Phillips analyser so I'd be selfish if I had it but it looks worth a punt for anyone who wants to see what it might be able to do.

Not seen one of those but I have something called a Megatron meter which doesn't need a power source. I can't find any information about it except a tenuous link to Sangamo Weston and that it appears to be for measuring the illumination of interiors, used by surveyors or architects.

Currently on ebay uk, there are 31 (!) of these exposure meters, varying in quality and with and with out instructions. They were obviously very popular when they were made.

As a bit of a 'collector/hoarder' () of photographic bits and bobs, I'm quite tempted, but will see if anyone else wants it and can actually make use of it first. The instructions on the link given are quite easy to follow; they are just lacking the press button A and wait for lights to flash type of instructions of more modern equipment.
