John, thanks for your answer.
Obviously, on a landscape, you read more sky on 28mm than on 48 mm, but
this is not the matter. The matter is the difference of light from a 28mm
(Fix) to other 28mm (Zoom) on the same scene.
I meter the light on manual mode (OM 4), as I do with the 28 f2 and with
the 28 f2.8. For the same scene the zoom 28-48 show on the meter scale 2/3
more of light, Tryin to espose perfect, I close the diafragm a little bit
until I read a perfect exposure on the viewfinder and shot. This will be a
slide
dark, underexposed. (logicaly 2/3 underexposed).
During the last times I work with this zoom overespos. 1/3 when I shot on
35mm and overexpos. 2/3 when I shot on 28mm, but I don´t like this way.
My simple question is:
Why the Zoom on 28 mm show me in the viewfinder 2/3 more of light than the
Zuiko 28 f2 and the Zuiko 28 f 2.8 (over the same scene)?
Why this zoom 28-48 on 35 mm show me in the viewfinder 1/3 more of light
than my Zuiko 35 f 2 or my Zuiko 35 f 2.8 (over the same scene) ?
I guess it can be a defect (fault) on the zoom, but I have two zooms 28-48
and both 28-48 have the same defect. This is the reason for ask if
somebody
have this problem with this zoom 28-48 f 4.
(I have never seen this defect on other Zuiko zoom).
Thanks again
Ángel Lobo.
