IMHO, an alternative way of exploring both the pre and post exposure
methodology of A.A's Zone system using 35mm gear, would be to use short
loads (say 5 frames per cartridge) of bulk roll B/W or maybe even Chrome
film.   That way you'd only need to lug one, maybe two multi-spot metering
camera bodies.
