Yes, that's one of the nice things about it. It's small and light too. I looked the L-208 up on YouTube and I see that it's very easy to calibrate ... I just might give that a whirl, synchronize it with the L-358. Thanks for giving me the motivation! BTW: There's an interesting light meter app for iOS/iPadOS named "Light Meter Wheel" by David Quiles that has the same nice feature—you can see all the combinations at a glance. It's been around a couple of years but is still running nicely on my iPhone 15 Pro on iOS 18.2.1. I think it's a freebie too. :D G -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
