Developer's Description

The light metering tool for every great image maker.

Use the standalone app as a reflective light meter or use it in combination with Lumu Power hardware for professional Flash and Color Temperature measurements.

Lumu Power is an easy-to-use digital incident color and light meter that works seamlessly with the free Lumu app to deliver Color Temperature, Illuminance, Spot, Ambient, and Flash Exposure metering functionality on your iPhone.
A new expression of what a light meter can be, Lumu meets the needs of enthusiasts, professionals, and students who find existing light metering solutions too bulky, expensive, and complicated.

"The Lumu Power is without any doubt the most full featured light meter I have ever owned. It's tiny, it weighs hardly anything, it manages to offer a feature set that expands way beyond what most will ever need from such a device." - www.35mmc.com
