Marco,
I too discovered the cross pol resulted in very under exposed slides when
exposed in full auto with an OM-2n. All other combinations/magnifications
were very well exposed on auto. Actually, I liked the 1/3 stop under better
in most cases, but they were ok. I don't know why it happened that way.
I expect next time I try it, I'll take good notes and try a full range from
no bias all the way up to two stops over. What ever it is, I hope it's
consistent.......btw, haven't tried eyes with the T-10 yet.
