Did you use exp comp for that shot, or did the camera nail it by itself?
The camera nailed it. There are only three metering modes all kind of center weighted. "Spot", "partial metering sensitivity pattern" (that's a mouthful), and "six zone evaluative metering" which is the one I choose when setting the camera up initially. Love the simplicity of late 1980s settings. I'm sure the newer film cameras from Nikon, and Canon are a bit better, but both the N90 and EOS-1 are spot on every time

A couple of the 8 frames from yesterday using the Voigtlander Bessa that Geza gave to me. Some of it's issues still remain, but I haven't given up on resolving them all.
Got a new lens yesterday (Zeiss 135 f3.5 T*) and did some comparison tests with another from the same focal length. And also checking to see if the shutter speeds are accurate. All went mostly well and the lens renders wonderfully. Developed 5 sheets yesterday and happy to say it's the best yet. No mess ups!
Well, mostly no mess ups. All 3 of the new lens shots have a minor light leak on the top left, so bottom right on the camera. I used 3 different holders and the two shots from the other lens didn't have any leak even though one of them was from the same holder (opposite side). So, I'm going to look into that today, I'll take off the ground glass with the new lens on and see if there are any leaks and change out the lens board. Could have been user error too.
Another pinhole camera shot from a few days ago (Ondu 6x6) with Fomapan 100.
I spotted these fallen apples on a park bench and put the camera right on the bench, using a twig to level it, and took a four-minute exposure. There was a birder on the trail behind the bench with a monopod and a camera, taking photos, but because he was moving he didn't even appear in the shot.
