Share Our Journey
From our humble beginnings in 1949 – when the
first Sekonic light meter was created – and two years later when the “Seiko Electronic Co. Ltd”
was established to the current day, we have never lost sight of our design and engineering passion.
One product became the symbolic hallmark product of the Sekonic brand: the Studio Deluxe series. Today, the current version L-398A Studio Deluxe III continues to be a favorite among traditional photographers, educators, and seasoned cinematographers.
We are honored and appreciative to be celebrating this milestone anniversary with you. We wish you continued success and passion, as together we celebrate the creativity and craft of the still and moving image.
