Group,
Learned many years ago to never assume something...
A statement I have often seen, is to "Meter for Exposure on a 18% Grey Card". I am asking what the "metering" word means in the sentence.
I believe that the Camera's exposure would indicate "0" when the 18% card was the sole source of reflected light and the other camera settings were what the software wanted. In other words, the phrase Meter is used to mean that the desired exposure has been achieved. Is this correct?
