Built to withstand the rigors of any shoot, the LIT DUO 1 features a bulletproof CNC milled anodized aluminum front and a durable plastic back. Its super-compact size and single-hand optimized form factor mean that you can carry it with you anywhere, making it the perfect companion for any production environment. The device’s state-of-the-art interference filter sensor technology and dual sensor setup allow for simultaneous measuring, providing accurate and reliable readings every time. One of the standout features of the LIT DUO 1 is its light flicker metering capability, which ensures that you can capture consistent and flicker-free footage. The built-in Bluetooth connectivity expands the device’s use-cases, allowing you to sync it with other equipment and software. The high-speed, ultra-low-power MCU and memory chipsets ensure that the device operates efficiently and reliably, while the USB-C port offers the convenience of powering the device via cable and performing firmware updates.
Even though the LIT DUO 1 runs on 3 x AAA replaceable batteries, you can charge them via the built-in USB-C port if they are rechargeable (NiMh). The sound buzzer feature provides a range of audible feedback for different button presses or measuring events, speeding up your workflow and allowing you to stay focused on your creative process. Additionally, the device offers a variety of color modes to ensure accurate and consistent colors for any type or brand of light sources. The LIT DUO 1 is equipped with ambient exposure modes that allow you to adjust all parameters, apply ND filters, or set exposure compensation. The AEV function measures the difference or ratio between two points, and you can easily re-measure both. The camera target feature lets you set camera parameters manually and measure the difference to that target, ensuring that you always get the perfect shot. For flash photography, the device can measure the flash vs ambient light ratio and works with high-speed sync (HSS).
For those who work with color filters, the LIT DUO 1 can measure or set two lights and show the color filters difference. It also provides chromaticity values in CIE 1931 or HSI formats, giving you precise control over your lighting setup. The device supports continuous measuring, with the option to set the measure button to either “Press and hold to measure” or “Press once to start/stop measuring,” making it versatile for all modes and sensors. With features like the lock buttons, quick ΔEV, and sensor indicator, the LIT DUO 1 is designed to be an indispensable tool for any lighting professional. In summary, the LIT DUO 1 is more than just a light meter; it’s a comprehensive tool designed to enhance and simplify your creative process. Its combination of cutting-edge technology, intuitive design, and robust build quality makes it a must-have for anyone serious about their craft. Whether you’re working on a film set, in a photography studio, or on location, the LIT DUO 1 will help you capture the perfect light every time.
