A scattering photometer for measuring the light scattered by particles in a hydrosol at substantially 2° and 90° simultaneously. Light from a source is directed by a first optical system into a scattering cell containing the hydrosol under study. Light scattered at substantially 90° to the incident beam is focused onto a first photoelectric detector to generate an electrical signal indicative of the amount of scattered light at substantially 90°. Light scattered at substantially 2° to the incident beam is directed through an annular aperture symmetrically located about the axis of the illuminating beam which is linearly transmitted undeviated through the hydrosol and focused onto a second photoelectric detector to generate an electrical signal indicative of the amount of light scattered at substantially 2. degree..
