Hey all,
I was wondering if anybody could help me figure out the conversion I would use if I meter with a 35mm camera for medium format shooting.
In particular, I will be using a NikonN90s to meter for a Mamiya 6. I plan to do this when trying to meter for long exposures, since the Nikon will read down to 30sec, and I can use a 50mm f/1.8 lens, whereas the Mamiya only goes down to 2sec and f/4.
So I want to use the Nikon with an 'L' focal length lens (probably 50mm) at f/ 'A' (probably 1.8), and want to know how to translate this to medium format 50/75mm etc.. Then I can compensate for reciprocity etc...
Thanks!
