Technology Connections, a YouTube channel that covers a wide array of interesting technology stories, has shared this 28-minute video that explores how the Canon F1 from 1971 works, with special detail focused on the camera's light meter.

Light meters aren't nearly as popular these days as they once were, but even if you have one in your bag, it's probably nothing like what you're about to see here. The meter in this video by YouTuber Mind Splurge is a vintage 'Walz Coronet' mechanical light meter, and it's dripping with hipster allure.
