TILES SCREEN

DEVICE SETTINGS

  • We’ve made it easier to connect your Android phone to multiple meters. Most users will want to let the meter connect to any device, but limiting connections to only paired devices is helpful where others are using Illuminati Meters at the same time.
  • New calibration adjustment sliders for both ambient and strobe readings make it easy to adjust your meter’s calibration to match other equipment
  • We have added manual and automatic LED brightness controls so you can control how bright the LEDs are – and you can turn them off, too
  • The Device Settings screen now shows the meter’s firmware version

  • Set exposure compensation in 1/3 or 1/10 stop increments.  Choose the step size in the app settings
  • With the new Color tab (separate from Color Graph) it’s easier to see ambient and strobe color temperature and color tint
  • Use either green/magenta or Duv units to display color tint. Select your preferred units in the app settings
  • Added ND filter feature to the Video tab
  • The filter gel library now includes over 400 filter gels sorted by manufacturer and family, including:
    • Profoto OCF Color Starter, Color Correction, and Color Effects Gel Packs – new filter sets!
    • Lee Filter Gels – more filters!
    • Rosco Cinegel – more filters!
    • Rosco e-Colour+ – new filter set!
