It is some thing nice but in practice Cameras with integrated meters and separate light measuring meters are very accurate. If you invest on a high end camera and hoping to get a once in a life time photo then you don't want to miss it by hitting it around with all these stuff. But it is good to know some basic and having a knowledge will come in useful sometimes!

Five years on from starting this thread and I have to say I've had a lot of pleasure from the hundreds (?) of PMs/emails I've received asking for the jpegs for this chart ... and I'm still getting them quite regularly!

I still have one in every camera bag and I still reference them a lot when I don't trust my memory (seems to be happening more! ) or my meter seems a bit squirrely.

Currently I've gone back to a meterless camera (widelux) and am amazed at just how accurate sunny sixteen actually is. Fred Parker, the originator of these charts, was very right when he suggested that your own judgement is far better than any meter once you learn to read the light situation correctly.

I use that a lot with my Oly 35RC and its dead (due to no battery, it is fully functional) lightmeter. It gives surprisingly good exposure readings (people think there is something wrong with me taking photos both with my phone and my camera ).
