In most other situations I'd just be zeroing out the meter anyway, so I just let the camera do it. Of course, I don't have quite the film experience that you do. I think a lot of new folks feel like shooting in manual equates to being a good photographer or that it's some pinnacle of skill to strive for instead of viewing it as another tool in their bag. You can build a house with a handsaw and hammer, or build it with a circular saw and nail gun, but the quality of the house really comes down to the craftsman.</blockquote>
