My Pentax bag is gray, but appears to be closer to Zone IV than an 18% graycard.

Re: Metering techinques (was metering landscapes (spot / incident)
Hi, The palm of my hand is 1 stop brighter than a grey card, the colour of the palm doesnt really fluctuate like the back of your hand as its not in the sun as much. So i just meter my palm and then make a 1 stop adjustment.

Paul ... The Kodak Professional Photoguide is available through many sources. It's listed on the Amazon site, for example. I've got a copy, and it's a great and useful tool, but, for some reason, mine doesn't have the grey card.
