I'm interested in looking into this, but would like to hear your experience with doing something like this, or your ideas on how to do it. Does anyone have a copy of the workbook, or a file they could post detailing the plans for this little trick?
Phil Davis says the spot meter densitometer is every bit as effective as the real deal. Isn't there also some kind of conversion matrix or table required to translate EV values into density values or something?
I'd very much appreciate hearing your comments or suggestions on this idea. I'd like to finally see what all the BTZS fuss is about, though I doubt I'll plan to take some of the fine tuning and testing as far as the book recommends.
