And even that's open to arguments these days.  Kodak, in the
instructions included with the grey card, says to meter the card and
then open up �-stop for a correct middle grey reading for average
scenes. 

There have been numerous discussions in many venues as to whether some
meters are calibrated for 18% grey or 13% grey.

IAC, P�l is wrong and has been wrong about this for years.  For some
reason he wants to believe that a "properly calibrated meter" in one of
these wunderkameras is always going to give precise and proper
exposure.  Please correct me, P�l, if I've misunderstood you - but
that's what you seem to have been saying.
