Regardless of which way I'm metering, if there is time, I first set on the
camera my estimate of the exposure settings. It's fun to see how close I
come and has three benefits:
	1. It causes me to really *look* at the scene with the perspective of how
it will be exposed on the film.
	2. I am always in training for when the exposure battery fails.
	3. If I'm off very far, it has caught me a few times when I forgot to set
the correct ASA setting on the camera.
