How can one measure the FLs on the screen using non professional tools. Can it be done, with say, a light meter for a camera? Just curious.

There is another thread on this matter somewhere on the forum

You can balance the distribution of light with any meter but to get the actual quantity of light you need a meter with a photvoltoptic response that accounts for the flicker of the shutter
