I was going through one of the draws and came across this !
I had brought this a number of years ago to use with my fully manual Film cameras and then never really did preferring just to use Sunny 16 . As I'm a little challenged at the moment only having my left hand to use I thought this is something I could try out . This was the combination I used !
The Sony was very difficult to set up with only my left hand so sometimes as there was fast moving cloud I had to set it up at a given light reading and then wait for that amount of light to become available again ,then take the photo.
Here are a few examples using as near as possible setting from the light meter.
Used a reading taken from close to the mug to try and get the exposure right for the mug. Not too bad !
Not too far out considering the Shadow of the house, maybe give an extra 0.3/0.7or so of a stop next time
Again reading taken from quite close to the figure which is in deep shadow because of the fence, maybe a bit extra exposure was needed.
I'll try again when the light is a little more constant posting both photos of each subject using the light meter ( plus a little more exposure if needed if this proves to be the case) and the same photo in fully auto giving the camera a chance to shine ! I might even included my attempt at sunny 16 as a first for each scene !
