hey /p/

Isnt it possible to use a digital dslr to meter for a MF TLR camera? I mean if you set the focal length and aperture the same.

Or would it be miles out?

Worked fine for until I picked up a meter for the MF I use.

Focal length is irrelevant to exposure unless you're dealing with bellows factor, which you aren't.
It'll work quite well.

however, angle of view is relevant.

This is where you use the longest lens you have to meter and treat it like a shitty spotmeter.

You could just be a man about it, pull up your socks and manually meter it

Or... You use any lens and your camera's spotmeter.

Yes. That's how I meter with my Yashica, in fact, when I'm not balls-to-the-wall Sunny 16ing it.

I've noticed slight differences. Usually a stop or two.

Use your SLR to meter. Bracket one stop either way. Take notes. Develop film. Compare notes to develop film.

I suppose "shitty" in my post should've gone before "camera" and not "spotmeter"

No. To exposure?
How the fuck do you figure?

Suppose your film body has a normal but your dSLR has a wide. The scene has a bright window which is out of view of the normal lens but included in the wide and your dSLR uses evaluative metering and compensates for that bright window.

Exactly, which is why you should use the longest lens possible on your "meter", or switch it to spot metering if available.
