No metering. My strobes were in a fixed position, and after using them for four or five years, I can usually guess the exposure. Then, I just shoot a frame at the stop I want to use, have a look at the image and histogram and adjust the strobe power as necessary. I avoided moving the lights as much as possible, so I wouldn't have to recheck exposure. I love having an lcd that actually gives you a good look at the shot. I also like being able to view separate histograms for each rgb color. Paul -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Jack Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Thanks, Paul.
