i'm going to sell my pentax spotmeter V. thought i would offer it on here first before ebay.
it comes with case and the instruction book and is in full working order.
offers by P.M.
if one of you lot buys it i will lend you my copy of 'the negative' by ansel adams and 'the fine print in black and white photography' by fred picker/zone IV workshop.
the zone IV book has details of a simplified zone system that i used with the spot meter.
essential reading if you are going to use the meter and your camera to it's full potential.
i made my own zone sticker to fit the meter, once you knew how a certain tone and spot reading was going to render on the negative you could check other areas of the scene and know exactly how they would look in print.
