NEWS: LUMO A New Light Meter from Reveni Labs

By Hamish Gill

Matt Bechberger of Reveni Labs appears to have outdone himself with another new lightmeter – this time a full featured, compact, hand held reflective, incident colour and flash meter all wrapped up in an aluminium housing. The Lumo, as it is called has just launched on Kickstarter on the weekend gone, and smashed its ~£18,000 target.

As you can see in the picture about, this new little meter has a full colour LCD for “clear, easy-to-understand information”, a USB rechargeable battery, tripod socket, means for attaching a lanyard and is made of metal – a departure from Matt’s previous meters which were made of 3D printed plastic. It is also seriously well featured when it comes to the metering modes it offers!

You can find out a lot more on his website here, as well as on Kickstarter here where you can follow my lead and back it. Having tried all of Matt’s previous meters, I have every confidence that this one is going to be a goodun!!

Nice unit. Beat Negative Supply project to finish at a fraction of the cost with equivalent features. Kudos to this creator. Negative Supply project that I backed is not going well with poor communication. Reading backer comments ther is painful. Sorry for digressing about this good product. L.

In addition to the technical brilliance it looks like a product that a grown man with age adequate eyesight (=not as good as it was) can use, that's why I backed it.

Lumo looks fantastic… I always wanted a sleek meter with the flash/ambient ratio neatly displayed. And Matts spot meter finally taught me the zone system, after all ;))

This looks awesome. Were it not for my trusty Seknic backed up by my TTArtisans shoe mounted meters holding it down I would be all over this. Thank you for sharing.

It looks like an excellent meter but my concern is as always these things are being designed so small without a thought to how they are used in real life. So it would be nice to have a 'new' meter designed to be used with gloves on, so you don't accidentally press two buttons at once, and a meter that fits in the hand rather that fits between two fingers. And then other things can be fitted into it, maybe a memo function, time/date/altitude/atmospheric pressure, etc.. Just because it can be small shouldn't mean it has to be small.
