the zone system- a query

Do you want to learn about the Zone System for B&W, or metering for colour?

As you may note, I already mentioned this:

"The zone system is for B&W work and has no direct application to color materials. The reason is that the zone system requires changes in contrast (paper or negative) to adapt to different brightness ranges of the subject. Color materials do not allow their contrast to be changed. You have just so many stops of exposure, no more, and you must keep the brightness range within that latitude of the film.

The possibilities that exist in B&W don't exist in color."
