[pure-silver] Re: Mamiya 6

I use a Mamiya 7. I find the metering quite good. I simply use the usual
measures when shooting contrasty scenes. Most shots are dead on. My biggest
problem is remembering to reset exposure compensation when using filters!!
PS I dream of an updated 7 with TTL metering and a large digital display on
the back so you can actually see your settings.

   I had read that the 7 only spot meters. I'm really looking for a MF
camera
that I can lug around with me to shoot "fun" stuff with. So a good reliable
meter is a must.

   I don't want to have to muck around with a spot meter. I deal enough with
that with my 4x5 and my Pentax meter. ;-)
