When I measured it for the DS body, I found that Spot pattern was approximately 5-6% of the total frame's area (approximately a 5-5.5 mm diameter circle in the center of the screen). That's consistent with 2.5% for the PZ-1p if the Spot pattern was also 5-5.5 mm in diameter. G -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
