Great little unit with only one drawback. June 23, 2008
This is one of those digital gadgets that has six buttons that do about 20 different things. I haven't tried it out yet in the field as I have been reading the instruction book and learning how to use it. This seems to have all I will want for my portrait business and then some. It even has cine function for movie cameras. I like how it will give you the readings for different shutter speeds by just clicking the up and down arrow button. So if you get 1/60th at f/11 and click it to 1/125 it will show f/8 or whatever. The only thing I don't like is that the dome must be removed to take a reflective reading rather than just sliding over to the side as most meters do. This makes me wonder how long before I lose it or drop it and watch it go into some place I can't get it. I suppose they figured you would be using it in incident mode all the time so that would not be a problem. Still would have liked some sort of connection to the unit by either a chain or permanent attachment. That is why I gave it 4 stars rather than 5.
Good Meter, Works Well, November 16, 2007
This KFM-1100 flash/ambient meter seems to be almost identical to the Konica-Minolta Auto Meter IV, even the illustrations in the owner's manual seem identical to the ones in the K-M manual. There is an accessory jack on the side of the meter that might accept K-M add-ons.
The product description mentions a backlight for the LCD. There was no mention of a backlight in my owner's manual, and no obvious way to activate a backlight. I contacted Kenko who confirmed that there is not a backlight in the KFM-1100 meter.
Four stars instead of five, just because there is not a backlight.
