Is it it possible to give the equivilent U.S. names of some of the cameras
you mentioned? Specifically Nikon seems to have different designations for
Europe than the U.S.
I am assuming that the meter you mention, Gossen "Sixtomat Digital" is
called the "Luna Pro Digital" across the pond here. I have a Nikon "2020"
which was the first autofocus camera Nikon built in 1986 or so. Is that the
F301 in Europe?

Thanks in advance.
