I can see what you mean, Mike, but shooting each roll of 35 mm under the
same lighting conditions, which I do whenever possible (even on the street),
makes a version of the ZS entirely practical for a Leica.
You just have to use generic tones rather than specific tones when deciding
where to place your zones.
