Recommended seller from FSU?

Thanks.

I bought one a few years back. I don't remember which one, but it did not work. I now have a Sverdlovsk 4 which I use when not uising my VC-Meter. It measures either reflected or incident light and has a small view finder which allows it to be used as a spot meter.

As far as FSU sellers are concerned, I have had good luck with Alex-Photo and Kubanoid.

I've got a Leningrad-4 that works reliably used with my russian iron. Bought it from "cupog" on the bay. You can find one at "confdntart" too. I've been quite happy with what I bought from him so far. Maybe you can have a look.

Svierdlovsk 4 is THE lightmeter, there is even export version for ragular AA battery afaik. I'm using it for at least 10 years and its perfect.

Option 9: None of the above.

If you want an FSU lightmeter, get a Sverdlovsk-4. It uses a battery, but as it's not a selenium meter it gives much more reliable data.

Thanks, guys. I'll check 'em out. A Gossen Pilot 2 would be OK, too ...
