I hardly ever bracketed, just shot shot multiple frames on slide film to have more originals, but all at the same exposure, metered with a Sekonic L-28 and sometimes also a Minolta spot meter. In a hurry, I found my OM-2n to be accurate on Auto, -1/3. -- Alan Alan Magayne-Roshak, Senior Photographer University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Photo Services (Retired) UPAA Photographer of the Year 1978 UPAA Master of the Profession 2014 amr3 at uwm.edu http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/ "All the technique in the world doesn't compensate for an inability to notice.
