I recommend waiting until you get your K10. In the length of time that it takes to use a hand held light meter, you can fire a test shot, look at the histogram and make corrections accordingly. # # Also I believe in the past I've seen some that do not require batteries, does such a thing exist? I think I had one about 30 years ago. Even the ones that need batteries don't tend to use them very fast. I expect that the most sensitive ones need batteries for the amplification circuits. # # Thanks. # # ~Nick David Wright # http://pedalingprose.wordpress.com/ # # # # # # # -- # PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List # [email protected] # http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net # to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- Photographs are like sentences, the best ones have both subjects and verbs.
