I agree with the advice about simply lying about the film speed
to the camera...;-) But if that is not satisfactory, I would first
establish that the meter is just "X" amount wrong under various
lighting conditions (this may not be true, making the next step
unwise...). Then reset the ASA ring to give the correct reading
with the wrong ASA setting. Loosen the three small screws in the
edge of the ASA-setting ring, and move the (then) freely-turning
ring to the correct ASA setting (don't lift it!). Tighten the three
screws. This works with F2's, also.
