Second roll with the new to me Canon EOS-1 - fits my hand just like the Nikon N90s - Italian designers? Anyway - a pleasure to use. The bad news is getting down low is even more difficult now, but I had motive to get this one. HP5 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
