Black and white film exposure

from Paul Calvert (opie@roava.net)
I have been shooting color slide film for about a year now and my exposures are usually dead on. I recently tried black and white film(TMAX-100) and my shots came out underexposed. I was shooting into a small waterfall with the sun shining off the water. I metered off the brightest part of the scene and added 2 2/3 stops to get to medium gray. Can anyone help me with the basics of exposure for black and white film, film latitude, etc?
