Agreed, the Sekonic is far easier to use than my Weston especially since
it can give a direct EV reading. I just wanted to counteract the point
that Weston meters need some magic conversion factor to get the best out
of them. In my experience they haven't. Seeing as my Sekonic cost me
twenty times more I'm not going to complain about the limitations too
much ;-)
