The stickiest part of the scale comes at between 1/5 and 1/25 sec. The other parts of the scale will be off from between 1/5 to 1/3 stop versus the modern scale. If you don't do a lot of work between 1/4 sec. and 1/30 sec. You shouldn't have many problems. I suspect that those speeds are most likely used with fast B&W film in your street work. The latitude there should make it acceptable. Regards, Ben W.
