My light meter
I am still debating whether I should take my Honeywell Pentax spot meter with me. The answer is probably yes but for the moment I've been using my trusty Lumix LX3 as a meter. Since I take it with me everywhere, and the results are fine, it's one less thing to carry. This means giving up the whole idea of pre-visualization and zone placing and relying to some extent on the latitude of the film and 'post processing'. But since I'm moving away from the zone system which 1) I never mastered and 2) is largely about properties of emulsion and chemical film developing which I no longer do, this may not be too much of a problem. We shall see.
