    Zone VI sticker for Pentax digital spotmeter

    Is any store selling it? I know I can make my own, I am just lazy.

    Cut it out and put a loop of transparent tape over it. I just replaced mine after twenty years of pretty hard use.

    They used to be sold by Calumet. I don't know if they still are. Cost was about $5.

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    I would call Calumet.

    I did not see it online last year, but called and they indeed had the Pentax stickers for sale. They also just dropped it in an envelope and charged me for a first class letter so I did not spend more on shipping than a little sticker.

    Funny...the first thing I did when I got my "Zoned" Pentax DS was to remove the sticker. Unfortunately, it came off in pieces or else I would send it to you.

    I have an unzoned pentax digital spotmeter. I am now helping someone who has a zoned one and ought to know the difference. I have never paid much attention to what they did. In the shortest possible way, can someone suggest what they do - and why?

    Thanks,
