I get 100% correct readout on every meter I own.

ROFL. This is quite a bold statement. Can you support it with some facts, like the method you used to check your meters, and the results that you got by following that method ?


No meter is designed to give correct exposure but to assign whatever you meter to medium tone. However, in order to make any sense of this readout so that I can get the "correct" exposure, which is the exposure I want, I need a fine enough metering method, a fine enough meter readout and I fine enough exposure setting. I can do this consistently 100% of the time within 1/3s with Velvia.

I can do it all day long, with any camera, with or without a meter. I just define "the exposure that I want" as being the exposure that the camera will produce if I set it at 1/125s and f:8. It will be dead on.
