The TTL meter with its extra diode, that lights when the exposure is correct, is much faster in use. I would love a three stop +/- exposure scale in 1/3 stop increments but I think that would be hard to do for technical reasons I certainly know nothing about. Here is where personal preference comes in as I think that the black body with chrome lenses is absolutely gorgeous! The chrome body with chrome lenses never looked right to me.
