The Autometer VF is aimed primarily at the dedicated amateur enthusiast. The device has a compact housing and is as reliable as it is versatile. It offers separate processing of the readings for flash light and ambient light, a memory for two exposure readings and a broad metering range of -3.0 to +19.9 EV. With the Flashmeter VI exposure meter, Minolta is aiming to appeal in particular to professional photographers. This all-in-one meter for incident and reflected light metering also allows separate processing of the readings for flash and ambient light. The 1.4 degree spot metering mode with integral optical finder ensures precise exposure metering of subject details. Other features include highlight and shadow correction and an extra large, clearly laid out illuminated vertical CCD.
