I am using a Nikon Z6. I love the camera and I have recently begun to buy a bunch of older vintage lenses. Vivitar 135mm 2.8, Jupiter-9 2/85, Nikon Telephoto 135mm f/2.8 AI and several other Manual Focus Lens. I have noticed that many of them do not communicate with the cameras internal meter. I guess that not only do I need to manually focus these lenses but I will need to also use a light meter correct? Does anyone have any recommendations on a good light meter to use with these manual lenses ?
