This light meter LM90 from Martindale resolves down to 0.01 lux making it ideal for use in very low light applications.
The handbook gives details of conversion factors for different light wavelengths allowing more accurate measurements.
The peak hold and the hold functions allow a maximum reading to be recorded or one particular result to be kept.
You can set the Martindale LM90 Lux Meter to show results in lux or foot candles.
Photometric Formulas: 10.764 foot candles = lux(lumens/meter2) 0.0929 lux = foot candles (lumens/foot2)
