Set the Mode switch to \u0026quot;AMBI\u0026quot;, then simply aim the meter\u0026rsquo;s light receptor at the scene and press the measurement button. Measurement readings will be calculated and appear in the almost immediately and color temperature measurements will be taken as long as the measurement button is held down. The KCM-3100\u0026rsquo;s measuring range for ambient light is EV 3 to 16.3 using ISO 100.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eTHREE DISPLAY MODES\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eLB (LIGHT BALANCING) AND CC (COLOR COMPENSATING) INDEXES\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe LB index is used to select the right amber or blue LB filter needed to balance a light source. Its measurement is the mired difference between the photographic color temperature specified for the selected film type and the temperature of the light source. The CC index is the value of the required magenta or green colored CC filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFILTER NUMBER AND CC INDEX\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kodak Wrattan light balancing filter number (or numbers) needed, display directly in the LCD to make easy selection of amber or blue LB filter (s). The CC index is the value of the required magenta or green colored CC filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003ePHOTOGRAPHIC COLOR TEMPERATURE\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe photographic color temperature of the light source is measured in degrees Kelvin and determined according to the spectral sensitivity of color films.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eNINE MEMORY CHANNELS FOR CUSTOMIZING THE METER TO YOUR WORKING STYLE\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFilm and lighting equipment manufacturers all claim that their products are balanced to \u0026quot;daylight\u0026quot; (5500K) or \u0026quot;tungsten\u0026quot; (3400K or 3200K). However, their testing is performed in laboratories under highly controlled conditions. We live and photograph in the real word. CCD and CMOS sensors from different manufactures read and interpret color differently. Film from different manufacturers render color differently. Different batches of the same film render color differently. Different lighting equipment renders color differently. The quality and age of that equipment is also a factor. The sun cannot even be relied upon, rarely shines at a perfect (5500K) and can vary widely depending on time of day, weather and pollution in the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe KCM-3100s nine memory channels make coping with these challenges much more simple. Once you determine the correct filt ration for the film or equipment being used you can simply enter the difference between your filt ration and the meter reading into the meter\u0026rsquo;s memory. The meter will adjust all future reading accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFLASH LIGHT READINGS\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFirst set the appropriate film type and choose the display mode. Set flash range selctor switch to Hi or Lo depending on the output of the flash unit (s), set the shutter speed to be used (from 1 sec. to 1\/500 sec.). The total flash measurement range is from f\/2.8 to f\/180 at ISO 100.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFLASH READING WITH SYNC CORD\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFor Sync Cord setting, set the mode selector switch to\u0026quot;CORD\u0026quot; and connect the flash sync-cord to the Sync Terminal in the front of the KCM-3100, Then a temperature reading can be taken by simply pressing the Measurement button on the side of the meter. The flash will then fire, a measurement will be taken and the measurement reading will appear in the LCD display.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFLASH READING WITHOUT SYNC CORD\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eWhen using a non-cord flash set-up, set the mode selector switch to \u0026quot;NON.C.\u0026quot; Pressing the measurement button sets the meter in stand-by mode. When the flash is fired manually, a measurement will be taken and the measurement reading will appear in the LCD display.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eANALYZER MODE FOR FLASH LIGHT MEASUREMENTS ONLY\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBy setting the shutter speed to \u0026quot;F\u0026quot;, the KCM-3100 will only display measurement readings for the light from a flash.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eUSEFUL SHUTTER SPEED RANGE\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eA selectable range of shutter speeds from 1 full second down to a fast 1\/500 of a second set in full stops for flash measurement. Lighting for Flash photography usually is made up of a combination of flash and ambient light. The KCM-3100 measures the \u0026quot;mixed\u0026quot; lighting at the selected shutter speed. After measurement the shutter speed set in the meter can be changed which effectively changes the ratio of ambient light to flash. The meter will automatically recalculate the results and display the new reading for the new shutter speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eNAMES OF PARTS\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003col\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"kfm3100_1\" src=\"https:\/\/kenkoglobal.com\/uploads\/images\/catalog\/product\/meters\/KFM_3100\/kfm3100_1.jpg?1542807041627\" style=\"height:408px; width:405px\" \/\u003eReceptor diffuser 270 degree swivel with buit-in white flat diffuser.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eLCD Data display.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003ePower Button.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eMemory Channel (M-CH) Button Press and hold to access and select memory channels using the up\/down control.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eM (Memory) Button Press and hold to change Data in memory using the up\/down control.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eDISPLAY Button The button changes the display mode in the set following order. ...\u0026#39; LB\/CC indexes \u0026#39; Filter Number\/CC index \u0026#39; Photographic color temperature \u0026#39; LB\/CC Index\u0026hellip;\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eSync Terminal.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eMeasuring Mode Switch Selects Measuring Mode \u0026quot;AMBI\u0026quot; \u0026ndash; Ambient Light Measurement \u0026quot;CORD\u0026quot; \u0026ndash; Flash Measurement with Sync Cord \u0026quot;NON.C\u0026quot;- Flash Measurement without Sync Cord.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eMeasuring Button.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eUp\/Down Control Changes shutter speed in \u0026quot;CORD\u0026quot; and \u0026quot;NON.C\u0026quot; modes.
