Existing meter? Trained eyes? Well, let me draw a comparison
in this fashion: What you are currently using is the equivelent
to an OM-1. This meter and timer equipment is the equivelent of
an OM-4(Ti).
If you are perfectly content with the metering system of the
OM-1, you'll be fine with your existing setup. But if you
happen to use and like the multi-spot metering system of the
OM-4(Ti) then this will fit like a glove. The simularities are
uncanny.
There is no substitute for raw experience. Many people can
eyeball a negative and get a good print without ever firing off
a test print in anger. I'm not one of those.
Whether you go for the meter or not, the StopClock Professional
really is the ultimate timer. Likewise, if you don't for the
timer, the meter really is a pretty slick device. Then they
also have a combo unit that combines the meter with a simplified
timer.
