Response to Zone System

The zone system can be a great help just as long as you don't lose sight of the fact that the outcome is good photos, not endless testing, worry over minor variations, and slavishly following your meter. Don't forget to be adventurous & bold at times & don't hide behind the endless metering of subjects to the exclusion of following your own common sense in making images. Keep it fun & when in doubt shoot away & back up or bracket as well as try the methodical approach. Results count so do whatever it takes to get them. Do whatever it takes to work with good technique as it can only help your quality and give physical expression to your inner vision.
