Once owned and trusted your favorite meter, there are many ways to personalize your meter and adapt to your own working style. Most meters came with one slide(High Slide), except the S series (3 slides). Optional was a case with more slides.
Remarkable though the sets I saw were not much used if at all. See identification.Strong demand for High slides proved also many slides are lost. More slides will confuse most users, which one is in the slot? Our solution is banner your slides...!

First of all banner the high slide with a bright color, this way your slide is easy to spot when you drop it in the grass etc.. On the left you see a Sekonic Studio S with the high slide bannered blue. (Any bright color will do, if you remember its value (High Slide)

We bannered a second slide for our convenience. #3 with its value 1/100 sec with 125 ASA film or I.E (bannered red)
Now we can choose for a direct reading method with the red bannered slide in or use the conventional blue bannered High Slide.
In both cases we can rest assure on its outcome.!
With the blue bannered slide we also can do the direct reading method if we use Speedreading @ Keystop. For advanced and seasoned photographers only as it is easy to make a mistake.

Banner with confidence,
