Er, yeah. Almost unnervingly precise -- it jumps around while my
hand's doing its tiny little shake-your-booty dance it sometimes does.
Guess I gotta learn more about the Zone System to use it more effectively.

Thanks, mang. So far so good -- though I found the battery life to
be curiously short -- perhaps I've got a bum Li-ion cell. Anyway, I
ordered the larger battery grip from B&H (along with a few other
goodies for good measure). Should help. And third-party
replacements are cheap as borscht.
