I ordered it because a lot of people recommended it.

I would still have the III but some lousy ... stole it from me while I was covering a Farm Aid concert a few years back. Anyway I have found the Minoltas to be very accurate for both incident readings, Flash readings and flash with incident readings. They are easy to use and display apperatures in tenths and the IV shows shutter speeds in 1/2 stop increments. I also have the 10 degree spot adaptor for those odd instances when an incident reading just won't work and the M3 has no meter so I have to have something ...now we're on topic. ;). They also give you flash readings at shutterspeeds from 1 second and up. Hope this helps.
