No. It isn't. Sometimes the difference between 1/125 and 1/250 is the difference between a good action shot and a poor one. But, more to the point, sometimes I've used an external meter, and know that the right shutter speed for my selected aperture is 1/125. It would be nice to know if the camera agrees, or if I need to dial in some compensation. > Today I shot a roll of Sensia 100F on my ME Super and a roll of Fuji > color negative film on the MV. I'm sure the print results will be ok. That's a pretty low standard - I try for a little better than just "OK". > EDUARDO AIGNER > www.eduardoaigner.com.br > > John Francis wrote: > > >>MV is great for relaxing shots.
