What's a good light meter to buy?

I have an older camera and I want to really get into using it. Is this one ok ritzcamera.com/product/232040… I thought that a flash meter just metered flash (I have a flash meter, it doesnt give a reading until the flash goes off) but this one looks like it will give ambient readings and flash readings.

What kind of things should I look for in a light meter?

Don buy a meter. Experience tells you the right exposure.
Bracket your shots and pretty soon you will know what works best. It's cheaper too.

Bracketing means taking two or more shots at different exposures. Have them developed and pick out the best negatives.

WHat do you think of these 6 unusual ways to die?

1. Conrad Middleton, 26 years old, was killed by his twin brother Brian after a disagreement over who should take the family home after their parents' passed away. Conrad had a nasal problem, and had no
sense of smell. After the argument Brian stormed out of the house, then snuck back later, and turned on the 3 gas taps in the house, filling it with gas. he then left out a box of cigars, a lighter and a note saying, "Sorry for the row, have a puff on me", Brian. Conrad promptly lit a cigar, destroying the house, and himself in the process.

2. Military Sergeant John Joe Winter killed his two timing wife by loading her car with Trintynitrate explosive (similar to C4). The Ford Taurus she was driving was filled with 750 kgs of explosive, forming a
force twice as powerful as the Oklahoma Bombing. The explosion was heard by several persons some up to 14 kilometers away. no trace of the car or the victim were ever found, only a 55 meter deep crater, and 500m of missing road.

3. Debby Mills-Newbroughton, 99 years old, was killed as she crossed the road. she was to turn 100 the next day, but crossing the road with her daughter to go to her own birthday party her wheel chair was hit by the truck delivering her birthday cake.

4. Julia Smeeth, 20 years old, was killed by her brother Michael because she talked on the phone too long, Michael clubbed his sister to death with a cordless phone, then stabbed her several times with the broken aerial.

5. Megan Fry, 44 years old, was killed by 14 state troopers after she wandered onto a live firing, fake town, simulation. Seeing all the troopers walking slowly down the street Megan Fry had jumped out in
front of them and yelled Boo!. The troopers, thinking she was a pop up target, fired 67 shots between them, over 40 of them hitting the target. "she just looked like a very real looking target", one of the troopers stated in his report.

6. Javier Halos, 27 years old, was killed by his landlord for failing to pay his rent for 8 years. The landlord, Kirk Weston, clubbed the victim to death with a toilet seat after he realized just how long it had been since mr Halos paid his rent

Which do you think is the weirdest of all?

6. how could the landlord not realize that Javier has not paid rent in 8 years. It's not like it was a few months, it was almost a decade. That's a bit bizarre to me

Saddest number two. weirdest number one.

.damn.
5.

5 is the weirdest. why anyone would even do that is beyond comprehension.

the weirdest would have to be 1, 4, or 5 :P
im amazed that you could even think of all that odd stuff(;

3!!! The second weirdest is number 5.

HOLY ….. F U C K !
Number 3.

1 and 2 are really scary

3 kind of ironic

4. messed up

5 was kind of her fault

6 was dang! lol

4 was the weirdest, my brother talks on the phone 24/7, I should show this to him

number five is like um wow.
dude all of these are just sad and messed up.
:'(

1 – Wow, that's a horrible thing to do to your twin, that was malicious.
2 – I'm sure he got fired from the military for that :O
3 – That's just unlucky.
4 – I can kind of understand him feeling like that but don't ACTUALLY kill her oO
5 – that was her fault, I have little sympathy.
6 – what an undignified way to die… a toilet seat? Wow.

4 was the weirdest.

These all seem really unrealistic? Did they actually happen?

I guess the "weirdest" is…uhm well they're all weird haa. but I guess…5?
1 is really unbelievable and that twin must have been truly evil, 2 is sick, 3 is ironic, 4 is really..graphic and terrible, 5 is unbelievable, and 6 is odd and a bit ridiculous.

So yeah, 5.

What is a light meter and a voltmeter?

"Hypothesis: At the end of each summer, Texas red oak leaves turn red and fall off the trees. this is most likely caused by changes in air temperature and sunlight intensity."

-Which equipment is most useful when measuring the 2 environmental changes mentioned above?

A. Barometer and voltmeter
B. Light meter and barometer
C. Voltmeter and thermometer
D. Thermometer and light meter

d it tells you at the end of the first paragraph.

D. the Thermometer for the Air Temp. the Light meter measures the amount of Sun light.

A Barometer measures Barometric pressure, ( High, and low fronts ), and a Voltmeter measures the amount of voltage in a current.
