These mirrors may be moved nearer or away fromthe lamp by means of a rack and pinion device T thus varyingthe intensity on the plane p. The photometrical setting isindicated by a pointer attached to the mirrors and is read directly.

In Ryans photometer, Fig. 63, the light to be compared fallsat A upon one surface of the photometric device, 5, whichconsists of a translucent block, diagonally divided by a thin,opaque film. The comparison lamp, C, illuminates the otherhalf of the block. The distance between this lamp and the 128 LIGHT, PHOTOMETRY AND ILLUMINATION block is varied by means of the rod, D, upon which is calibrated ascale which indicates the results of the photometric photometric device, B, is viewed through the side, equalportions of the two halves of the block being present in the fieldof vision.
