However, from what we've seen on a dozen rolls they're right on the mark! As I discovered shooting B&W the exposures roll after roll were of excellent meter/shutter selection producing properly exposed negatives. And with the M7 AE metering for colour we're seeing similar positive results. I expect to complete the editing to-day or early to-morrow, but at the moment I'm very positive feelings about the M7 AE for accuracy in selecting the right shutter speed for good transparencies. If my opinion changes throughout today with more editing I'll let you know. But so far, so good. ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
