I have the opportunity to buy a PME-3 Hasselblad Meter Prism for a good price, but I am not sure if this is the best choice. I would appreciate your opinion about this two Meter Prism and also your recommendation.
Thanks,
Henry.

I am also considering a prism finder for my 501 and found this. It may help. http://www.flickr.com/groups/hasselblad/discuss/72157626287794654/

I have the 45 degree PME which is a earlier model. I have used in for several years and I have not had any bad exposures for it. The weighted area was will designed. I think that either the PME-51 or PME-3 will serve you will. Check out http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/HasselbladFinders.html for more information.
