I received my LM yesterday from the groupbuy organized by modamag so I immediately tried it out once I got home with my Aleph 1, Wiz2 520ma.
I'm puzzled how the Peak button works. When I toggle it, "p" and "max" is displayed on the screen, but the reading jumps to 400+lux even without any light hitting the sensor. From what I understand reading the instructions, this function will display the highest reading recorded unless a new reading exceeds the present displayed value. When I measure the lux reading, it reads around 2000 lux at 1M. When I try to take a measurement again with the previous reading still displayed, the reading suddenly jumps to 3000+ lux. I'm at a total loss what to make of this behavior. It seems as if it adds the new value to the old one already displayed.
Could anyone familiar with this light meter provide some tips on how to use it properly?
Thanks.
