[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I first started in this game back in the mid 50's and used the 'sunny 16' in probably 90 percent of my photos...used various metered slr's for years and I guess I just forgot about it until last weekend, I made the 'watermill' tour in southern Missouri, using my M3 and a IIIC.. I had an MR meter and an incident meter with me, but caught myself using the rule without even thinking about it...jeeeez I'm glad I finally went to Leicas.
