I am using Leica M6, in the manual, it said
Expose color negative films for important middle-tone areas and never
fear overexposure
Expose b&w film for shadows and develop for the highlights

For the
middle-tone areas
middle-tone areas metering, I assume I should meter using the centre of the frame in an area which is not too bright, and not too dark first, then move the centre back to construct the photo, am I right?For b&w, I assume it mean to meter on the shadow right? But what is the meaning of
develop for the highlights
develop for the highlights?For the overexposure, should I keep it consistent for the whole roll of film? e.g. always 2-stop overexposure
Should I also overexpose for b&w film?
