On an even less Leica-related note, if you are exposing film at ISO 100 on a Hasselblad using the older lenses, you can bypass the dial entirely and just plug in the EV reading directly. That is a very fine meter you've got there--I used it extensively with my M system, until I got the M6 :-) Jeff - -----Original Message----- From: George Huczek <ghuczek@sk.sympatico.ca> >Sorry to bother the LUG with a semi-related issue. >I was using a Pentax digital spot meter, to meter on some dark clouds.
