Sekonic light meter


 
 
Hello, love this site, I purchased Jim's book; The Absolute Beginners Guide..., before I discovered this site. My question is as I am gearing up for my new hobby I purchased a used light meter from ebay, a Sekonic L-V1 model. However I don't understand it's operation and what the values represent. Does anyone have a suggestion where I can find a users manual for it? The only thing I recognize in the ASA (ISO) setting for film speed. I'll upload an image of the meter so perhapsm someone could point out the other setting between the open and closed range. I'm guessing the meter is the apature setting?

I don't see an entry for "L-VI", but there is a link "ask Sekonic" that might be helpful.
