I am taking my (new to me) M3 out for a walk this morning enjoying a break in the rain and playing with the new Voigtlander light meter when I realized that things were going a bit too smoothly. Then it dawned on me. While I changed the the speed on the meter to get a correct reading, I forgot to change it on the camera! I knew it was too good to be this easy. Dumb, dumb dumb....

So I laughed at myself and retook the six or so pictures with the correct speed and aperture. Glad it wasn't anything important. :)

Isn't the dial on back of M3 just a reminder what ISO film is loaded and has nothing to do with metering?

^ exactly, it's just a reminder wheel and doesn't do a damn thing else.

So Leica Fan relax & continue shooting as is, nothing's wrong [emoji106]
