It doesn't have all the features of the Sekonic 508, but I have had it for 4 years, and it has never failed me once. I used it outdoors in very wet situations without any problems. There is one problem with the Sekonic that you should beware. It doesn't show the metering result in the viewfinder. This can be REALLY annoying when you are indoors and trying to check the evenness of lighting, or just simply trying to get a feel for a very mixed lighting scenario with many samples. The Minolta shows the aperture setting just under the image in the viewfinder. , G a b o r .------------------------------------------------------------------. | Gabor Csanyi | Editor at Large -- The Tech | | MIT, Department of Physics | MIT's Oldest and Largest Newspaper | |------------------------------------------------------------------| | 77 Massachusetts Avenue, Room 12-128a, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA | | Phone: 617-2536051 Fax: 617-2532562 | | Cellphone: 617-8182296 Cellmail: phone@csanyi.net (160 chars) | `------------------------------------------------------------------' ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Feb 2000 17:14:44 -0600 From: David J Carlyon To: hasselblad@kelvin.net Subject: Scanning Medium Format Message-ID: <4.2.2.20000229171440.00a37960@scc.net> I'm going to want to be able to scan 6x6 transparencies.

A fine meter, but the only thing that IMHO sucks is that it is not possible to select an aperture and read the shutter speed. You have to enter the desired shutter speed, and then can read the corresponding aperture. OK, it ist not too hard to read the time from the display using the up/down buttons, but for my work i prefer to use a fixed aperture (for a specific DOF) and would prefer to set this on the meter and get the corresponding speed. -Michael Buchstaller ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 01 Mar 2000 00:26:32 -0800 From: Rich Lahrson To: hasselblad@kelvin.net Subject: Re: which meter Message-ID: <38BCD438.6BE5@wenet.net> Hi!
