Later model at right with extended ASA range compared to the left model. The left one is the second version of this meter, as the very first version had an all metal top body.

These photometers were designed and produced by Bruno Lange, 1934. The glass cover has the indication for Lux painted on, the selenium cell takes the place of the ( usually present) dial plate. Added is a conversion calculator to photographic values. Germany.

Selenium cell photometer

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.

ici c plus le caractère enfantin qui est mis en avant et avec le flou ça devient volontairement unisexe donc plus "universel"...

le traitement selenium est là pour adoucir l'image.

Selenium toning setting was a compromise between only darkening the shadows and getting some warm middle tones. Turned out pretty good, I think (simulating Moersch MT2, carbon toner).

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.

Selenium Toning. Torrey Pines State Beach, CA.

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)

This is the first selenium exposure meter that Gossen introduced in March 1933. The meter could be delivered in a linen-covered cardboard case( Bereitschaftskarton) or a leather case. Here you have the very rare (cheaper) linen-covered cardboard case.
