How do I meter for such a low asa? 
Use a hand-held meter, phone meter app or the Black Cat Exposure Guide. You can also set your camera's internal meter to iso 25 and then open 2 - 3 f-stops.

Beware of Light Piping: This film stock is subject to "light piping" when exposed to room light. Please load in dim light and store in a dark camera bag before and after shooting. If storing your film in fridge, freezer or home shelf, store in a light tight bag as well. What is light piping? Read our blog by Leslie Lazenby.
