Curious. I have both the older Super Program with the 400..800..1600 ASA/ISO dial and the newer one with the 400...1000.1600 dial. Both have click stops for film in 1/3 stops. There are other subtle differences between them as well. Is there a third version of the Super Program out there? And how would one set film speed by half stops when film speeds are rated in 1/3 stops? Or did I misunderstand what you are saying?
