Again, this is not strictly true. Meters are sometimes affected by flare, by color temperature, by non-visible wavelengths, by "memory" effects, by non-linearity, etc. Strictly and technically speaking, the opposite contention might be closer to the truth, although most meters work well enough for photographic purposes most of the time. --Mike - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
