Is there a working light meter in this camera?

All our cameras (Seller Photo Finish) are completely 100% guaranteed to be functioning correctly, including the built-in, working correctly light meter.

Note sure. Here is a video from my morning commute, which is also a good low light test.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=024-LE16nFI&feature;=share&list;=UUJUZ0nqh02uuLNLM9sPCLgg&index;=3

No, there is not a light inside the unit, but it works great! There are many good reviews in this little unit. Good luck!

Metering does work, but aoutofocus will not, the camera needs to be put in manual control to it to work correctly

Right. The lamps produce light that is constant. These lights are not triggered by the camera's flags or an IR device.

Yes. Our lights were on a timer and were on 3 to 4 hours daily. Tried to return,took pictures but never successfully did so. It is now in a trash bag in the garage

Yes, there is a light. You turn it on by pressing a button on the top of the camera.

The light meter only works when the shutter speed is on 'A' automaticwhen its on automatic you just put your finger over the button in the middle of the shutter speed

Yes, it has a light, but it only works for still photography, not for video. More to the point this video cam will fail you. I loved mine and used it on a couple of vacations. Then one day it decided not to work like so many of the others that were reviewed. Toshiba does not support repair services for this product. I was out of luck.

Their is not a meter per say. the only indication is when it is low the right led blinks.

I agree no light level determination. Something that could work that is also wireless WIFI and has an Internet app is the Spark Photon since it has something like 8 analog inputs. Would take some additional circuitry with a photocell but would seem to be very inexpensive for a hobbyist to do.

Absolutely. Any light meter works with any and every camera. It gives you a setting for you to use in manual mode. Depending on what and how you shoot, a L-758 meter may be a bit of overkill, though.

Hi Chantiana,This camera uses two 1.5V alkaline or 1.55V silver-oxide button batteries for the center-weighted light meter but they are not necessary for the camera to be fully functional. The light meter is just an added perk.Thanks!

No, it has not. Even its low light level configuration is not very effective.

No, it does not have a light sensor. You have physically turn it on and off.

There doesn't seem to be. I put a strip of electrical tape over the lighted area though and it helps.

yes you can measure LED light, mine did not come with a certificate but you can send it in to Extech for a NIST calibration or you buy it calibrated (HD450-NIST)
