knocked me off kilter and I'm just getting around to email that's been
lingering in the Inbox since. :)
It was a delight to meet you in person after all these years of email! Felipe
and I both enjoyed the
I’m very curious if anyone has done any side by side tests. Set up a scene,
set the exposure on pure automatic, then by hand held meter, then by the

That, at least, makes sense. Online storage for anything more than

And that's not counting additional media for backups. So, it's at least

Part of that is a workflow question. I’ve developed a “successive
