I know there has been much talk about the above subject; however, after reading most of the responses, I'm still confused on where to point the meter while taki ng incident meter readings. Do I point the dome towards the camera? light sourc e (i.e., the sun)? or somewhere in between? It "almost" makes more sense to poi nt it towards the light source (i.e., the sun) since this is what's illuminating the landscape. However, does one point it towards the sky slightly away from t he sun or does it really matter given the view of sky the dome "sees". The prob lem I see in pointing the dome towards the camera is only half of the dome is il luminated from the light source (assuming no golden hour), except for the light refecting up from the ground. Would this lead to overexposure? Another questio n pertaining to just the Sekonic L-508, should the dome be all the way out while taking the reading or should it be nessled in its hole?
