Ray S Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 After after shooting with my S2 for a few months now using a light meter app with my phone (Motorola Droid Turbo), I've begun to wonder if Bronica made a metered prism for the S2/S2A cameras or if one from any of the other Bronica bodies fit? Just looking to simplify the shooting process if possible. Also here's a cropped recent shoot taken with the 75mm Nikkor lens. Loving this camera so far!! Photog enjoying my various lenses, bodies, & media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heritage Cameras Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 After after shooting with my S2 for a few months now using a light meter app with my phone (Motorola Droid Turbo), I've begun to wonder if Bronica made a metered prism for the S2/S2A cameras or if one from any of the other Bronica bodies fit? Just looking to simplify the shooting process if possible. Yes, there was a metered viewfinder (not a prism) for the C-series and S-series cameras. According to the Tony Hilton "Early History" book it was called just the "Zenza Bronica TTL Exposure Meter", and an extra ring was required for the S2A's shutter speed dial. There are a couple of these on eBay right now, as item numbers 182941900351 and 362165027723, so you can what they look like. Hope this helps.

c_watson1 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I'd save the effort and put the $$$ toward a used ambient/spot meter. Something from the Sekonic 500/600/700 series would outperform a relic any day. BTW, nice shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the shot too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
