Let's talk CLA's

The sunny side rule has rules, where I live I calibrate May to Aug within 2 hours of midday, when the sun is visible, on top of the Worcester Beacon, 1400'. I take a Weston and Gossen. If you are mid Western you need a open space and similar rules. If the Weston (selinium) is low I stick a label on it (new cell) and drop it in the 'to be' box, the Gossen has to pass its battery test, both are zeroised initially. You do get strange looks from the other walkers, but no worse than using a monopod...

I have to Westons in the box awaiting an order for new cells.

My other problem is that the speed on the film box and the Rodinal technique I use seems to vary between film types, e.g ilford dont use the formal ASA test for foot of the curve, I normally give the film and additional stop. Chrome film I use the box setting for and that seems to work.

Modern English usage allow's an apostrophe to be used to pluralize abbreviation's.

Your's pedantically and ironically,

Only because so many people nowadays haven't a clue what an apostrophe is or what it signifies. It signifies possessive or a missing letter or letters. The only exception is something like "T's", where "Ts" would be confusing. At the rate of recent years, all instances of terminal letter S will soon be replaced by 'S! I've seen shops that sell tomato's - clearly no-one knows what tomatoes are now.

To be more pedantic still, it's a "C.L.A." not a "CLA", so the plural is C.L.A.s not CLA's anyway.

Yours even more pedantically! ;-)

Trius[/left]]OK, I don't really wabt ti be a PITA, but it's CLAs, not CLA's. The apostraphe makes it

posessive, where as CLAs​

(no apostrophe) is plural.

Again, I'm sorry, but THIS DRIVES ME NUTS! You are looking for sources (multiple if possible) of a CLA service for your cameras, not "camera's". E.g., "The camera's exposure was sit to f8 @ 1/250s", not "the cameras were set out on a table because all the RFF geeks had gathered in the Distillery

Disctrict". Get it?​

It's f/8, not f8! f is the focal length, and f/8 means 1/8 of the focal length. Get it?​
