For those of you who haven't yet found a way to use your old camera's meter, or old hand-held light meter, because it took mercury batteries, and hey! you can't buy them in civilized countries anymore! let me highly recommend the "Interslice Tri-Dot" battery cover, made by Jon Goodman of Dallas, Texas.
A lot of you have recommended Mr. Goodman before, but let me add my own endorsement of his product here. I bought two of the covers for my Gossen Luna-Pro and now it works like a dream. Zinc-air 675 batteries fit inside them, and they're not $5.00 a piece like some of those little batteries, so there's another bargain, but I digress.
Jon maintained friendly communication all the way thru the sale (he sells on ebay but I bought outside that venue) and guaranteed my satisfaction. I couldn't be more pleased -- and an added bonus, as if that weren't enough, I saved more than $15.00 over B&H's conversion thingy!
Three cheers for Jon Goodman!
