I could live with that. I'm basically considering the Zx-5n instead of a hand
held spot meter. I figure for about the same money a spotmeter would cost me
I can get the Zx-5n the bundled budget zoom and an older 135mm prime lens.
I bulk load so I guess that means I could just put less then 36 frames on a
roll.
