I never knew the name, but I think your right. They would die about an hour after sunrise.

Thank you Sailor Blue, It makes a lot of sense, now I get the idea of what my limitation of my meter is.I'm retired and I have a lot of time on my hands and I want to dedicate it to...

I know what an ambient reading is and the D3 is in full manual. What it sounds like your saying that I should use a reflective reading from the D3's system?

Hi again,Well now I don't think it's my Sekonic L-358.I thought I had misplaced my Minolta Auto meter 3 F but I found it. So I set both meters with the same exact settings side by side in...

Sorry about that...I have an FX camera

Reminded me that D70 can take a nice photo.Stunned!

Good idea,I don't know if D3 are susceptible to dust and mainly oil because I only used it with 2k clicks and it needs it again.Thank you everyone for your input.

This might be a trivial question and I'm new in here but I own a D70 and a D3 and have the sensor cleaned from a photo shop near me and they charge $45.00 to clean it, and they also clean whatever...

I'm new in here, how do you upload a raw file to dpreview?

I think I have one for you,I was photographing crystal and I kept changing the lights direction. I hope this is what you need. Unedited. It's too big of a file here...can't upload it. I could email...
