Ok, I got my hands on a modified 1 degree pentax spot meter. Lets assume it's m odified correctly, for now. Do I take a reading and then move the ev scale to where I think the EV say 6 should fall on Zone 2. If this is correct, do I look right above the 6 to see that the F stop is 1.4 or what??? How would you use t his low F stop at all. I am planning on using Ilford 125 film.I have no direct ions, and this is my first light meter, and my first camera and though I think I understand the Zone system basically, I just don't get this meter at all. Wha t do I do with the first dial after I figure out the other one? I realize my ig norance is showing, but it is the only way of learning something from someone el se, that I know of, the past posts are kind of vague, if anyone could be very sp ecific I would appreciate it. Thanks for the help, and have a good holiday. Ha llie
