Jon, With film we have toe and shoulder, how is your 50% working with that?
I am interested in seeing what is going on.

Hey Eric,

You don't shoot a target like a card. You just expose film in 1/2 stops.
Geoff had made some translucent white filters which fit over the lens. Aim
it at the sky or anywhere for that matte where there was light. Was a matter
of making 1/2 stop exposures to find 50% from dMin to dMax.

I will try and dig up my notes on it. It's a cool technique for those still
shooting film.
