Thanks BD,

I was thinking of something like what you said i.e. the measurement has to
be adjusted
with regards to the substance we are measuring. 
As a matter of fact, my main trouble now is how to figure the measured area
with a 35 mm lens : 
for me it's too small for a center averaged and to huge for a spot! This is
of course mainly remakable with
wide angle lenses. Now is my question : how do you handle this measurement
with wide angle lenses?
Thanks in advance, 
Thib.
