        This confuses me bit. Would not your TTL give the correct exposure
with the ISO at the normal film rating of 100 (at least that is what the
concensus seems re the Konica) Now the q is--what is the filter factor ie
how many stops compensation--3 ??

        This sounds like a plus for me as I like to work in the open shade
with backlighting. What do others have to say?
