All,
When a spot meter says 1 or 2 degree metering area, how does that translate
to what I see through my viewfinder with a 50/1.4? I'm not bright enough
to do the math on this...
I'm taking 2 OM2s bodies and 1 OM1n body to Yosemite, etc. in a month or so
and, getting into the Zone System, I'm finding that the spot metering area
on the 2s is larger than I want it to be, particularly if I'm shooting a
landscape and want to get a reading off of a particular, small rock 1/2
mile away.
I'm considering buying a spot meter to help me with this -- while changing
to longer lenses to meter & switching back to the lens I'm going to shoot
with generally works, it's a royal pain to do so sometimes, and I'm
thinking a discrete spot meter will help me. But if the metering area is
as large as the one on the OM2s...
TIA!
Rgds,
Dave
