To select each mode, turn the Set/change dial while hold down the MODE button. Please refer to the L-508 instructions "Setting Measuring Mode" for further instructions. Setting DIP switches (Cine/Still mode) Special features are selected with the DIP switches inside the battery compartment. You can customize the L-508Cine by activating desired functions. DIP switch assignment DIP switch Descriptions when the DIP switches are "ON" positions. Factory settings 1 TIME0. 5 Setting half shutter speed OFF 2 F No. /EV Selecting F/stop priority measurement and EV readout. OFF F/stop priority measurement is effective only in Still mode. 3 MULTI Selecting Multiple flash function. OFF Multiple flash function is effective only in Still mode. Selecting Shutter Angles (Cine mode) 2. Turn the Set/change dial to obtain desired shutter angle. You can select a shutter angle from 5° to 270° in 5° step. In this example, 90° is selected. -3- 2.

Filter Compensation (Cine/Still mode) Note: Shutter angle settings can be changed only when a cine speed is displayed. 4. [. . . ] Hold down the MODE button and ISO button and "Off" will appear to indicate that the Measurement lock is released. F/stop analog/digital range The ranges of the f/stops displayed: F/stop on the analog scale: f/0. 5 to f/45 in 1/2 step F/stop digital: f/0. 5 to f/90 in 1/10 step 8. Exposure Compensation (Cine/Still mode) L-508Cine is calibrated accurately to Sekonic standard and no further correction of the meter is required. However, if you want to change the exposure index for your specific requirements, the L-508Cine can be adjusted in precise 1/10 step in a +/- 9. 9 EV independently in Incident or Reflected mode.
