If you would sent all your light meters to be calibrated by a standard source, the light reading would be the same.

Welcome to Photrio!

Welcome to Photrio! I use a digital timer with red lights. It provides two choices of time.

My camera preferences vary by subject matter, shooting location, composition or desired results.

Check to see if the lens is attached correctly. For the camera, is the f/stop correctly set for the light meter? Is the battery fresh.

I prefer to take the light reading without any filters [other than UV or warming filter] and adjust the exposure for the filter that I will be using. Why? Because testing exposures through denser filter versus without filters and adjusting for the filter, differ; less dense filters, not so much.

No, I can wait a few more minutes. I use a Jobo processor, so it is inconvenient to take an early look.

I shoot film and digital, but I enjoy film more. Partially because a have many film cameras and lens combinations to choose.

That and not reading the owners manual are the two main reason for Hasselblad jams.

I use StopLossBags™ from StopLossBags.com with their funnel and I have been able to keep XTOL and replenished XTOL for over a year. Vacuum sealing would be overkill.

Great find! Go back to the attic and see what else is there that you may want to use.

While I have multiple zoom lenses for my film Nikons and the Nikon Z7ii, 28mm to 200mm and 150mm to 600mm, I have fixed focal length lenses for the wide angle range, 15mm, 16mm, 20mm and 24mm that I had previously brought for the film Nikons.

I have had Epson printers for decades, but the one I have added wireless capabilities, a cartridge mailing program available and other features such as a sleep mode. That Epson printer has had all sorts of problems which I have never seen before. I have spend many hours on the telephone with...

That is what I have experienced and read. There is no advantage to under or over exposing. Your time would be better spent learning the Zone System.

Since you have one you might as will try it. Maybe you can learn something useful. I have not had the need for one, but I have used the palm of may hand for exposures when I took skiing photographs.

Impressive!

If one has a plan, the real time situation may require real time planning or replaning.

The OP may want to seek help form Epson.

After one has sorted the slides and put them in trays or a storage box. Other than sending the slides out for printing, about the most that one can do is to mount the slides in glass so the slide can be cropped.

I disagree. Checked Bags: No, never

That is most of my photography. It gives me pleasure; is that not enough of a reason? I like the workflow. It feels nostalgic (I shot film professionally for many years) I like the delayed gratification of seeing the results.

I use the 1 liter kits, I do not shoot enough film to collect 16 rolls much less 30 rolls.

When I develop C-41 film, I develop 16 rolls in two to three days to avoid color shifts or other problems.

I use the lens' lens hood and shoot hand held. I have not had any problem getting the field of view hand holding.

Nailed it!
