Following enormous support on Kickstarter, the Lit Duo 1 light meter has officially begun shipping. Digital Camera World first reported that the light meter had been reinvented in July 2024, when the self-proclaimed “Game-Changing” light meter for video and photo launched a Kickstarter in a bid to raise $580,139 / £441,126 / AU$889,462.

Well, 2,516 backers later and the project has more than doubled that target, reaching $1,651,292 / £1,255,609 / AU$2,531,739. As of a November update, Lit Systems says it’s delivered over 1,300 units, with around 360-500 lightmeters received from the factory per week.
