I have a Tokina 60-300/f4 which is pretty stable from 60-200 and then loses
about a stop at 300mm. This happens even metering a gray card, so it isn't a
little sky throwing off the reading. It's supposed to be a straight f4. I
have to watch it shooting with an OM-1. With OM-2S on auto I don't worry
about it, but it's annoying in principle.
