  • A Kickstarter for about $20 .. I've taken the plunge .. others may like to at their own risk :)
    A great idea.

    Luxi is a small diffusion dome that fits securely over your iPhone’s front-facing camera. When attached and used with a light meter app, Luxi will help you determine the best settings for your DSLR or other camera so that you can take perfectly exposed pictures.

  • Looks fun. I just do not like to have so fragile and costly light meter.

  • Well, I understand your criticism, Vitaliy ;-)

    But if you already carry one (and have a solid protective frame anyway) it sounds appealing. The existing Luxmeter app (actually more of a spot meter) is not bad, actually. I checked it against a Sekonic and it wasn't more than 1/3 off (less range, of course).
