If you love shooting with old film cameras, then you’re probably all too aware of the idiosyncrasies surrounding their light meters. Many cameras from the 1960s and 1970s require long-banned mercury batteries and give inaccurate results with modern replacements. Others have selenium light meters that deteriorate unpredictably with age. So there’s a lot to be said for having a compact hot-shoe light meter, and nothing I’ve seen comes anywhere close to being as portable as the tiny KEKS KM-Q.
