Re: Your definition of eV might cause confusion

I was using EV as arbitrary measure of "stops" which is common, not the Absolute Standard of EV.

Like I have been saying, I have all four of these great cameras here, if there is a suggestion to redo the test I would appreciate it.

Testing on the absolute EV scale is going to be tough though, I dont own any f1.0 lenses, so there has to be sometype of a workaround. This is what I was attempting.

Just shoot a grey card located at the same place as your target and record the settings for a proper exposure. Then simply look up the corresponding EV in a table or compute it with a formula. There's no need for an f1.0 lens.
