A densitometer is a device that measures the degree of darkness (the optical density) of a photographic or semitransparent material or reflecting surface. The densitometer is basically a light source aimed at a photoelectric cell which determines the density of the sample from differences in the readings. Modern densitometers have the same components, but also have electronic integrated circuitry for better reading.
