Depends on how anal you are, Ken. The cells in the camera don't respond
exactly as the film does to different colors, the pundits say - but I can't
tell the difference. I have always just metered through the filter. I also
metered through the filter using an OM-2 to set when my 4x5. Seemed to work
just fine. But I rated TX at 250. Might have corrected for the error some,
depending on which way the error is for a 15 (my standard for all outdoor
b&w).
I only use a 25 for HIE - and exposure is a real crapshoot with that film.
