Isn't this exactly the same thing, though?
Lift-and-turn = speed of film goes up by 2 stops, compensation stays the
same
dont-lift-and-turn = speed stays the same, compensation goes up by two
stops.
Either way, the camera thinks there's been a 2 stop change. The whole
_point_ of lift-and-turn -vs- turn is that if you just want to fiddle with
the exposure, but not worry about losing track of which speed film you've
got, you change the exposure compensation, shoot, and then put it back to 0
again. If you change the film speed, then you can forget this.
(oh, there's one difference; changing the exposure compensation makes the
little +- indicator appear in the viewfinder, changing the speed doesn't)
