   Light Measurement Question   
   03 Mar 12 23:19:16   
   
   From: ckraftSPAMTRAP@west.net   
      
   Looking at a spot on a fluorescent rock.  Trying to check it with a   
   spectrum analyzer.   
      
   With a photographic spot meter, I read ASA 100, 1 second at f5.6.   
      
   Can this be converted to some units that an engineer would understand.   
      
   I am working close enough to the item that it is an extended source. I   
   presume I cannot gather more light using a positive lens.
