I've tried a few shots of ducks on the local lake so far, believe it or not I think they'll come out ok. I find it's best if you meter while approaching the subject with camera hanging around your neck, at the same time setting aperture/shutter. Then just pop lens cap off, focus and shoot. Another little dodge I've had to use is setting the meter to 200 ASA with a 400 ASA film, to take account of the yellow filter.
Have around 29 frames left on the film, just waiting for something interesting to use them on.

The light meter does work and is pretty accurate - within half a stop compared to my K-m.
