I was watching a documentary(sp) where all this chappy seemed to use was a Pentax spot meter, similar to mine to take a reflective reading from the background... the doco was not on photography, I was simply pondering how an acurate reading could be taken with an analog spot meter for a background exposure.... I must of missed something in there. What came first, the flash meters or the spot meters? Thanks all the same -- "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.
