Easy to assemble and even easier to use: just put the meter reading for zone V on the zone you prefer, then read where the other zones fall. There are three wheels to play with, so f-stops and EVs too are easy to remember.

• As Acrobat plugins for Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer are available, it is possible to view the zswheel.pdf file from within the Web-Browser. Be aware, that you have to use the Print button in the Acrobat toolbar, rather than using the browsers Print menu item for best results!

• The last step is to glue the Zone System Ruler printout on cardboard and cut the parts along the borders. To increase the lifetime you can laminate the parts before assembling.
