Thanks again to all. I very much appreciate the advice, as I now have a better understanding of what is involved. Considering everything there is to learn, I agree that it makes sense to get an accurate meter ASAP. I've placed an order with Calumet for the Zone VI meter (out of stock with an estimated ship date of June 6th), so I guess I'll just have to be patient until then. In the meantime, I've gone to the library and checked out "Zone VI Workshop, the fine print in black & white photography" by Fred Picker, for some more knowledge and a bit of inspiration :-)
