My god Marc you are on a roll here. Sorry no pun intended. I now only bracket when I am copying from digital prints to film stock, from slide to slide film. But I now have a wizz camera which not only has spot metering, has centre weighted and matrix metering, Boy! does that make the difference no more trying to asses the scene, just switch to the appropriate one and shot all very lazy and automated, but I spent loads of years doing it the hard way. :O)
