re: the Lunasix

The buttons on the right side are for high and low scales. Try the high
scale (for brighter light) until the needdle gets to the bottom, then
switch to the low light scale. 

The sliding white dome on the end is for Incident Light. Point it toward
the light source or at the camera. When it is moved aside, you are
reading Reflected Light, the light coming from the subject.

Sounds like you might want to read a piece on the two types of light
readings to understand the difference.
