Of course it's important to note that Tri-X at a stop or even 1.5 stops
underexposed can still yield a pretty good image, since we're working with a
negative. With the positive of a digital camera, we need to be pretty much
right on. It's more like shooting transparency film.

Do a test with your cameras.
Use an incident light meter to shoot a grayscale, a color swatch, and
a tri-tone test target on ASA 400 slide film, setting the exposure
100% manually. Set the camera to meter and set the exposure
automatically too. Then do the same thing with your digital camera,
