===============================================================
I always had to be economical in my personal shooting, and we had tight
budgets at
the university too, so had to make do with careful metering.  I hardly ever
bracketed,
just shot shot multiple frames on slide film to have more originals, but
all at the same
exposure, metered with a Sekonic L-28 and sometimes also a Minolta spot
meter.
In a hurry, I found my OM-2n to be accurate on Auto, -1/3.
