royall_berndt Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I can't find the lumigrid for this meter, and I remember having one once. Were the grids stored inside the meters or cases, or were they a loose part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodeo_joe1 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 (edited) There's a pocket at the front of the supplied Sekonic case, under the closure flap. It's meant for storing the Lumigrid or Lumisphere when not in use. If it's not in there it could be anywhere.:( Edited January 3, 2021 by rodeo_joe|1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royall_berndt Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share Posted January 3, 2021 I woke up this morning to recall putting it in a particular plastic bag. Now to find the bag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royall_berndt Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 I couldn't find the bag, so I spent 25 bucks for a replacement. Two days after receiving the gadget, I found the original in a bag I hadn't remembered. Screwed again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajkocu Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I couldn't find the bag, so I spent 25 bucks for a replacement. Two days after receiving the gadget, I found the original in a bag I hadn't remembered. Screwed again! A few years ago I could not find the tool for unscrewing the retaining ring of large format lenses. After I bought a new one, I went to put it in my cabinet and set it right on top of the one I could not find! I am forgetful, but at least I'm organized!

hjoseph7 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I can't find the lumigrid for this meter, and I remember having one once. Were the grids stored inside the meters or cases, or were they a loose part? I could not find mine either and to tell you the truth, I'm not sure if it ever came with one ? The "Lumigrid" is used for reflective light metering , while the white bulb is for incident light metering. Maybe the Lumigrid came in the box, or maybe it was an accessory you had to purchase separately. I purchased my L 358 back in 2010 so I don't remember. In any case they are not manufactured anymore and trying to find a Used one online is like trying to break into Fort Knox. It took me 3+ months to finally get my hands on one, the cost was a whopping $50. The bad is that it does not fit inside the pouch for the L 358 , perfect for losing it again !

Well I guess the OP would be willing to sell you one of his for $25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodeo_joe1 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 My used Minolta Autometer IVF didn't come with the reflective metering baffle. I ordered one at a very reasonable price from a local photo-dealer (back when we still had such things). However, it took weeks to arrive, due to supply problems in Japan apparently. This was years ago, and I must have used that reflective adapter all of 4 times since! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
