Thank you very much for this explination, I now understand that
the Zone VI meter is for large format Zone system work which I never
do . I will stick with my Spotmeter V and continue to use it as I know,
I find it an excellent accurate meter and have learnt more about light
and metering since using it.
Prior to getting the Spotmeter V and understanding the zone system, I
depended
on trading in camera bodies I had for the latest modern wonder and thought
eventually a body will come along to do everything right. I still have not
found one and actually have given up looking since I have my Spotmeter V.
A Pentax MX and the Spotmeter V is quite a combination for producing very
good 35mm colour slides and colour negatives.
thanks
