When shooting Kodachrome, development is controlled by Kodak.  Zoning for
transparencies gives great results in the proper situations.  Are you a
snob or what?  The zone system is a methodology for light control in all
picture situations.  Just because Ansel's book only describes one method
is no reason to put that method into the church services and delete all
others.  The OM-4 is a very good camera for slides.
