Recomposing the picture even slightly may result in a different exposure when the subject is in the same light. This could have been avoided with a button/switch which would have allowed the metered exposure to be held as long as needed. If the meter had been improved with the option of switching to matrix would not that have been a worthwhile feature? How might it have been done? How about making the entire curtain reflective and either varying the reflectivity or different sections or adding several sensors baffled to read only a part of the frame, or both. Opinions?
