For contact printing large format platinum prints, would you prefer a computer-generated negative or a perfectly exposed 11x14 sheet of FP4?
Me, too. I've done some investigating and the pros for using digital files to produce suitable negatives are huge. You get all the corrections you want, after the fact.Film
I still have my F. It was originally an Ftn but when the meter crapped out I decided that fixing it was too much money for too little return so I put a plain prism on it. I've also got the waist-level (well, in practice, "look-down") finder. I find the plain prism gives me the best view of any mobile camera I've ever owned but I really liked that folding finder for some applications.@Ben English
You're old enough to appreciate this. My first light meter was a Norwood Director which later became the Sekonic Studio Deluxe. I bought it used in 1963 when I bought my first Nikon, a plain prism Nikon F. Sekonic still makes this meter which dates from at least the 1940s. I still have the 63 Nikon F.
The first camera I bought with a built in meter was a Nikkormat in 1972ish. I didn't use its meter much if at all. Next was a Nikon FE where I learned to love aperture priority. Still have that. I lost the Norwood sometime after I started using multiple studio flashes and bought a Minolta Auto Meter IIf.
Interestingly enough, the Norwood Director and the Sekonic version were the only meters recommended by the Hollywood Cine-photographers' Guild until the Minolta Auto Spotmeter came out.
