Gossen
Gossen is a renowned light meter maker based in Nuremberg, Germany.
In 1919, Paul Friedrich Karl Gossen (1872–1942) and Otto Cohn founded the company Paul Gossen Co. K.-G., Fabrik elektrischer Messgeräte in Baiersdorff. Within a few years the company had moved to Erlangen, grown, seen Cohn leave and Rita Gossen join, gone into and emerged from administration, and had successfully sold ammeters and similar devices.[1]
The company's first photographic exposure meter, produced in 1933, was the Photolux. Between then and 1949, other models included the Blendux and Cimbrux for cine.
