We shipped the machined (hand-finished) Luxis out on May 30, so the super-early adopters should have theirs now. We’re especially grateful to you guys for your investment in the Luxi project. You helped us enormously and your contribution is much appreciated. The final production models arrived in-house today, and they look fantastic. We had a little back-and-forth about the packaging, and a small rubber grip pad that helps to secure Luxi in place. Initially the pad was grey but we decided - to look just right, it needed to be black.     Both the microfiber pouch and the lanyard...

Some Kickstarter backers asked to see Luxi in action, compared to existing devices. This week we tested Luxi with a Sekonic L-308 and a digital lux meter. We used Pocket Light Meter and Light Meter by White Goods for the lux testing.     Outside the Extrasensory Devices office on a cloudy day. We see time at 1/500, f/16 and ISO 800. Beautiful public plants in Palo Alto get the same light meter treatment: 1/500, f/11. Digital lux meter test images:   Direct sunlight: ~95,000 lux! Lux reading in our workshop.
