Esteemed ladies and gentlemen:
 
I've got a large collection of approx. 30 yr. old RFs made for the outlawed 
1.35V Mercury battery. As I see it, there are 4 options: use a handheld 
meter and manually set aperture; use a Kanto adapter/ new battery; use a new 
wein cell/ zinc-air battery; have the camera meter permanently modified. 
 
Can anyone opine as the best of the options to take from their experience. 
 
Bill
