SUMMARY
Increment Labs has launched a Kickstarter for the LMW-V1, a watch featuring an integrated light meter, marketed as the first purpose-made watch for photographers. This device aims to simplify exposure for film photography, a growing hobby that often involves vintage cameras with unreliable or non-existent light meters. The watch measures reflective light at a 45-degree angle, a practical choice for photographers on the go. The campaign is nearing its funding goal, with various reward tiers offering discounts on the watch and additional straps, and shipping is anticipated in Q1 2027.
