Back when I was in the Air Force (60-63) I had a friend that did a lot
of weddings on the side. He had a stereo camera mounted on top of his
Graphic. He used the stereo shots as a dollar builder, back in those
days everyone sold 12 B&W 8x10's in an album, and no one bought extra
shots.
I keep thinking I ought to mount my Oly on top of my Graphic. Exposure
meter, test shots, shots when I think a sheet of 4x5 is too expensive.
Only thing is I can not bring myself to drill a 1/4 inch hole in the top
of the Graphic, it is just too pretty.

I've started doing this with the meter function in the Optio 750z when
I shoot with my C220 and Crown Graphic. Plus, having a second (small)
camera is nice for the same reasons you stated in a later post. So
far, I'm getting much more consistent results than with my old Minolta
Autometer (which isn't really saying all that much).

It just depends how you look at it, if you are walking in with your DSLR you
could well argue that you're taking in one of the most advanced light meters to
date. I now often use my DSLR to meter my MF exposures, I get far more
predictable results on film particularly in low light, I still have my Gossen
Luna Pro digital F but it's only a good tool for some jobs.
