Do you frame and push a button that then "remembers" the reading, so that when you take the camera away from your eye, you can figure out the f-stop/shutter combination? This is the "MR" method. Or do you have to try to point the camera to the subject, and find the f-stop/shutter combination by balancing the LED's?
