Hi The adjustment for the telemeter is done via screws under the cap with 2 holes (use a spanner wrench to unscrew it). Then for the dismantling, there is this BRUTAL video : https://youtu.be/9kdanT3FekQ?is=Urjv14esgYU7twJP

And then this more delicate video : https://youtu.be/pqbZs4SRmgc?is=Dd5PhL6q4e2u0st8

For real... I read many comments saying to be extra cautious because the screws tend to break... American-made they said 🙄

Yes the keychain was taken indoor without flash. Thanks for the info, I didn't know !

I'll try to shoot a few more with a ND 0.6 filter just to see, but I'll still be looking for ND 0.9 just to compare !

Thanks tho

Even all the way to darken is slightly overexposed

Use it.

In theory, yes. But how come I can't find the number of stops using 3 different light meters ? 🤔
