Hi there,

I'm looking for a new light meter. I'm pretty sure that the Seconic 758 Cine, would be the best choice for me, but today i went to a used equip store and i found used sekonic 758D in a very good condition, for half it's retail price. So my question is, does it worth spending twice for the Cine version ?
 
The major difference is the Cine model supports variable shutter angle settings for cine frame rates. The D model only supports standard 180 degree shutter for cine frame rates. D model has more extensive support for flash measurements for stills.
 
But by setting the shutter speed instead of fps ( 24fps = 1/48, 120 fps = 1/240 etc. ) I get the same effect right ?
 
Get the cine. You will pull your hair out otherwise. There's a reason it's called cine, it's way easier to work with. Has high fps options too.
