Part of the variation had to do with the SL's spot metering, which is not a problem. Unfortunately, another part was due to the fact that it's an older analog meter. It's slow and the cell appears to have some memory. I don't think a CLA would change that. >> I use SL and SL2 for lanscapes for the most part. Meter speed is not critical there and the spot meter is very good. However I use the R3 and R7 for almost everything else for all the reasons you mention. The SL is very similar to an M camera without the limitations of the Visoflex (which I lived with for many years.) Bob
