    Using my A-1 only on 'Manual Exposure' with readings from an elderly Weston Master V I got accurate results this time and also I used my Tokina AT- X 28=85mm zoom and the ' Macro' Setting was much sharper that that of the Auto-MAKINON lens I used before. FILM was outdated 'BOOTS' ( FUJI) 400 left over from my Local Press days rated 200ASA but in fridge for years !
