Andrew -- I use a Sekonic 308b incident meter for readings on my 111c and M3
and it works fine with the old speed scales. I think the difference between
100 and 125 are pretty minor, plus, I read somewhere that (maybe Erwin)
Leica M shutter speeds are not super accurate anyway. Whatever, I cannot
tell the difference.
