If you’re into film photography like me, you most likely have at least one vintage camera that either doesn’t have a built-in light meter, or it has one that doesn’t work properly. Here I review the TTArtisan light meter as an alternative to the Sunny 16 rule or handheld light meters.

Two decades after Canon released its last professional film camera, film photography is anything but dead; in fact, it’s experiencing a renaissance. The used market in vintage cameras and lenses is vibrant, and although a few beloved film emulsions are now sadly extinct, many other favorites are still in production. So what is driving this revival of what many consider an inferior and obsolete technology?
