Weston Master IVBefore GOSSEN and the Lunasix, The pro's lightmeter was the selenium Weston. This one is in excellent condition.
While on the meters that I already know the sensor is at the end, on the Weston it is on the back. Therefore to measure you hold the meter vertically, the button is used to lock the needle to make the calculation.

In high light, the sensor is behind a baffle, which toggles for low light:

Grille ferméeGrille ouverte

And the measuring scale changes according to the position of this baffle:

Echelle hautes lumièresEchelle basses lumières
