No need to apologize. Yes I do use the zone system for my lanscapes/nature shots and use the Gossen Starlite meter. It is great for zone mapping.

Gaetan, I apologize in advance for using your comment area to ask you another question. Could you comment on wether or not you utilize the zone system in your shots? I am just curious and by no means am I asking you to reveal your secrets to fantastic exposures! Just curious if you find the zone system helpful in your color work? Currently I am using a Pentax digital spot meter and the zone system with some success for bw/color. Any comments are welcome good or bad, maybe some advice haha :-). Also, thanks for your reply regarding the scanner. It looks as though I will need to save my money for some time in order to make the transition to medium format! What an expensive hobby :-) Thanks again for your time. Regards, b. hello@brianwilson.info

Thank you for your kind remarks. I am using a Nikon Super Coolsan 8000ED film scanner to scan my medium format negatives/slides taken by my Hassy 501CM medium format. I am and remain so extremely happy with it eventhough there is now a 9000 model out.

I really enjoy this photo. In fact I very much like your entire portfolio! I have chosen the same approach of shooting film and scanning the neg/slide. I would agree that this approach seems to work really well. Do you mind sharing the name of the scanner you are using currently? Someday I hope to purchase a medium format camera and would like to know if you are happy with the scanner that accepts this size neg/slide. Right now I use the 35mm neg/slide Konica dIMAGE scanner and have no complaints. Cheers, b.
