With invercone for incident light measurements. Selenium meter with two ranges, the low range is set by opening a perforated window over the cell, which allows more light onto the cell and shifts the display scale to a lower range.

Nearly all of these selenium light meter cameras have a dead meter.
Ho humm I found out later the light meter works.
You have to line up the asa dial exactly and give it a tap on selenium cell cameras.
One of my first series of photos that I shot solely for the purpose of making a print series. They were originally shot on a rather nice early Saturday morning drive in August of 2014 through the Cleveland Flats and Industry Valley sections of the city.
The title comes from a specific bend in the Cuyahoga River in the Cleveland Flats that was notorious for a lot of collisions between ships navigating the river through the former industrial hotbed of the city.

le traitement selenium est là pour adoucir l'image.

Here you see two Electrophot Selenium exposure meters with the name of the meter written in the same font style. The left one was manufactured by Müller & Ziegler in 1933 in Germany, the right one by Adair-Rhamstine, USA in 1948 (model 14-A). All Rhamstine selenium meters got the name Electrophot since 1932. Maybe the "name-conflict" stopped M&Z in producing other exposure meters. (if they pick our name, we pick their font)
