Still use this method. M mode. joe

Thanks for the link, I remember that thread and have since bought a DP2M.

You said: "At ISO 200 the DPm files have 2 stops of exposure latitude."

Does that mean that a "DPm" has 1 stop of exposure latitude at ISO 100?

Just curious, because I've been studying exposure lately ...

I have not used ISO 100 on the DPms very much but there is definitely less and 1 stop is probably close.  I seem to remember when using the SD14 that at ISO100 it had about 0.7 stop headroom and at ISO50 there was none.  joe
