Stephen,
I'm not following your humor very well. My point is that if I spend a lot
of money to go some place with a lot of photo opportunities, and I lug
seven prime Zuikos (I wish) and three bodies along, plus the Bogen, the
cost of the film for the purpose of a few brackets is less significant than
the expense of time, sweat, and money -- to me, that is.
The purpose of learning to expose well for me is that often I only get one
shot. But if I get a couple, I move the aperture ring a little both ways.
Best wishes,
Joel
