Thanks Chris... really interesting... and good advice.

What about... *BRIGHT* sunlight... I, for example shooting a face, I find metering the mid point alone, results in over exposed highlights... so in that situation I've been metering the brightest area of the face (The cheek in my above shot)...

Totally agree with you about digital... after 6 months with my old D50... I was using a Polaroid se600 press full manual with a hand held lightmeter with all the shooting in full manual and checking the histograms had taught me... and its a lot cheaper in digital than in film... though I still love to use my film cameras too = )
