The Nimslo notoriously underexposes. O.K. for prints, not so great for
slides. I shot a roll, put some ND filter over the meter sensor, and it
still wasn't enough, then put another layer of ND there and got acceptable
results.  That's 2 stops if you're counting. It seems to vary from camera
to camera so your 10 bucks will be well spent.
