I have some IR gel that I'm planning on putting a piece of in the film gate on one of my Minolta cameras, so I'll be able to see through the finder and use the meter.
I have several SR-ts but I'd prefer something lighter, like my XD-7 (XD-11 or XD) or X-700.
That made me think that the gel might become a problem with off the film plane metering. It wouldn't be good to meter off the IR gel probably.
I can't find a satisfying conclusive answer anywhere, so:
Does do either of the aforementioned cameras meter off the naked (not the shutter) plane at any point or mode other than flash TTL metering (only X-700)?
