Carl, If memory serves...there should be no difference between reflected and incident readings if the reflected reading is taken completely off of a properly positioned 18% gray card. Trouble is, most don't carry said cards, and they're difficult to properly position, which is why incident almost always is the way to go. Or did I miss something? David W. Almy Annapolis
