And BTW- thanks to ALL who sent me info on MR vs. MR-4 meters! Mine IS an MR-4 and is amazingly accurate, once one gets used to it's "ways"....!! I find that if I use it as a reflectance meter off my hand I can get a very accurate judgement of the light, although I'm trying to more develop my "meter-eye". Just shot a roll of Delta 3200 at 1600, using the M4-P and 50 Smmarit/90 Tele-Elmarit and Jupiter 12!! Now off to process in Xtol and see what we have- pictures of my Psycotic Terrier in some beautiful grey window light (f2-2.8 @ 1/125 and 1/60th rated at 1600- I'm going for the "Bokeh"!!!!) Using Tom A's "softie" makes a nice difference (already shot two inside-the-bag-portraits) I'm putting one on my Canon 7 as well- though with it on there I can't turn the shutter release 'lock' on! So, probably some more "blanks" coming up.... regards, Bob Keene "Everybody's Pal" Hopelessly in love with his M4-P!!!!! > >At 06:37 PM 1999-01-27 -0500, Bob Keene, no longer Everyone's Friend, >alas!, wrote: >>Now, in e-mail conversation with the seller, I believed I was getting an >>MR-4 meter.
