| | Weston Light Meters - History, Repairs, Current Sources |
 | | From 1932 to around 1967, over 36 varities of Weston Photograhic Exposure Meters were produced in large quantities and sold throughout the world, mostly by Photographic dealers or agents, which also inclu- ded the Weston film speed ratings, as there were no ASA or DIN data available at that time. |
 | | Now, that you have somewhat of a mental picture of the dynamic Dr.Edward Weston, I revert to 1898, and per an old handwritten crumpled logbook, it appears that he founded the Weston Electrical Instrument Company.Ltd in London, England, as a subsidiary of the Newark Company of the same name, exept minus the "Ltd". |
 | | Thus it can be seen why the name Sangamo-Weston Ltd.appeared on the Weston Exposure-meters, which were sold in England, and possibly in other countries in Europe, possibly exeption Germany, as Weston had a small company in Berlin, known as -European Weston Electrical Instrument Company Ltd., as the Standard Cell Manufacturing site and German sales office. |
