It could go like my 35mm lens test and then I ended up here - but that's another story. I'm just glad that my flash meter is adjustable so that it can be made to read the same as my old incident meter that I took as THE TRUTH not too long ago. Maybe ALL meters are different. You just gotta learn how yours is. Henry
